"During Tuesday’s Senate hearing, Donald Trump’s Attorney General Pam Bondi defensively lashed out every time she was asked about the Jeffrey Epstein file and his sex ring. For example, when Sen. Dick Durbin quoted her own words about how she said in February that the Epstein client list was 'sitting on my desk right now for review,' she slammed the Senator for somehow quoting her out of context."

"He didn’t. ...

Bondi’s actions are what prosecutors would call 'consciousness of guilt.' I’m not suggesting she was part of Epstein’s child sex ring. Rather the guilt comes her role covering up for those involved in the sex ring—that begins of course with her boss Trump and includes many rich and powerful men. ...

She is part of the cover up."

“Notice her non-answer. This is explosive. Should be explosive. The US AG who said she had the Epstein files on her desk cannot say whether or not the FBI has pix of Trump with half-naked women, which one witness who knew Epstein has said he has seen.”

"She delivered the most disgraceful, insulting, unprofessional performance by a witness to appear before the Senate—ever. In a just world, she should be impeached, convicted, and removed from office because of her disrespect. She should also be disbarred—and likely will be at some point in the future."

"It sure looks as though we are watching a lawyer backed into a corner, considering very, very carefully the potential ramifications for her — legal, political and career-wise — depending on how she answers. And weighing all this, and just gulping, and dummying up.

That’s it. Can it actually be that our government is a criminal conspiracy, digging in for war against all of us?"
