Attorney General Pam Bondi launched a passionate defense of President Donald Trump on Wednesday, shouting at Democrats during a combative hearing. She sought to divert criticism of the Justice Department’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, positioning herself as the president's chief protector.
Besieged by Epstein questions and accusations of a weaponized Justice Department, Bondi aggressively pivoted in a speech where she mocked Democratic questioners. She also praised Trump’s stock market performance and aligned herself with a president she painted as a victim of past impeachments and investigations.
