It’s like hearing a kindergartner trying to diss a professor of constitutional law . . . oh, wait, Raskin is that too.
But there’s more. When Pramila Jayapal asked Bondi to turn around and apologize to the victims who were standing right there, just a few feet behind her, she refused with this line:
“I’m not going to get in the gutter with this woman. She’s doing theatrics,” Bondi said.
I’m sorry, who’s doing theatrics? Could it be the one person who made a joke out of every question put to her, insisting that she not be accused of a crime, insisting that she not be told the rules of the hearing by the chairman of the committee, turning every serious question into an opportunity to slander the questioner with juvenile insults? Those theatrics? Hmmm.
At yet another point, Bondi seemed to forget that she herself was Florida AG from 2011-2019 and should have prosecuted Epstein long before NY did it for her, having had many years in which to do so herself:
Bondi tried to deflect blame away from the Trump administration by accusing Massie of not pressing previous administrations on Epstein. Epstein’s sex trafficking took place over decades.
Magic mirror, anyone?
** I can’t link to the specific entry in Maryland, but I linked the search tool. Look for Jamin Raskin.
She, and all the department figureheads, are experts at making us waste our time. Bondi is really not worth it to listen to - complete waste of time. But she spouts bullshit that’s obvious bullshit but takes quite a bit of explaining to show why it’s bullshit. That slows the resistance down.
There’s a more complete article at The Guardian, if anyone’s interested.
So much of what Bondi said was a projection you could see from space, like when she told Jamie Raskin:
I’m sorry, who’s a washed up loser lawyer that’s not even a lawyer? I looked up their law licenses. While Bondi is somehow still a member of the Florida bar, Raskin is retired from the bar in Massachusetts, inactive in DC, and active in good standing in Maryland,** and frankly his legal CV wipes the floor with her.
