Bondi told Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) she would not discuss conversations she had with Trump about Comey’s indictment.
Bondi and Trump met for dinner at the White House the night before the indictment. Bondi also redirected questions about the Epstein investigation into scrutiny toward Democrats.
Bondi asked Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) if he had questioned her predecessor, Merrick Garland, on Epstein. She also brought up Democratic ties to LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, an alleged Epstein associate. Between the lines: Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) also asked Bondi who ordered her to flag Epstein records related to President Trump.
“I’m not going to discuss anything about that with you, senator,” Bondi said. Durbin responded: “Eventually you’re going to have to answer for your conduct in this. You won’t do it today, but eventually you will.”
No no it’s always a choice available to you. It just comes with criminal consequences.
Or at least, it’s supposed to. Liberal politicians who want to show their constituents that they’re willing to ask the fascists hard questions aren’t impressing me at all if they’re unwilling or unable to follow it up with legal teeth. Might as well be helping them by handing them a soapbox they can shout anything from.
