BREAKING: Woman COMPLETELY LACKING INTEGRITY hisses "Don't you ever. Challenge. My. Integrity." [View all]

For hours, Bondi dodged questions from Democratic senators on everything from the Epstein files to Trump’s targeting of his political foes, to what authority the president has to launch fatal strikes against boats he merely claims are trafficking drugs off the coast of Venezuela, to the systematic firing of Justice Department or FBI officials who probed the insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6, and more.

At one point, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) — himself a Trump opponent who has been a subject of the president’s political targeting — ran down a laundry list of questions Bondi wouldn’t answer Tuesday, like what role she had in flagging any reference to Trump’s name in the Epstein Files, whether she approved of the mass firing of anyone who criminally investigated Trump at the DOJ or if she supported the creation of a compensation fund for Jan. 6 rioters.

Bondi’s approach to Democrats on the oversight hearing was summed up in her response to a question posed by Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D.-Conn.) about her possible conflicts of interest amid Trump’s acceptance of a $400 million plane from the Qatari government. (Bondi lobbied on behalf of Qatar when she worked for Ballard Partners.)

“How dare you? I am a career prosecutor! Don’t you ever. Challenge. My. Integrity,” she replied, punctuating nearly every word in her sentence with a pause.
