Under questioning at Senate, Pam Bondi says she’s had no discussions with Trump about prosecutions of House Jan 6 Select Committee members

Bondi: “No one will be prosecuted because they’re a political opponent”

What about “investigated?” Just being a target of an investigation short of prosecution could be a significant financial hardship.

ianingf.bsky.social•99 days ago

Where at the point where no one believes them.
And it doesn't matter since they have all the power.

wholegrains.bsky.social•99 days ago

Sure Jan. Remember Hunter Biden?

PERJURE

"But they will be prosecuted because _________."
Pick a charge, any charge.

amptsuper.bsky.social•99 days ago

Oh boy. PS: Have the GOP hung the plaque yet? Update please.

I call BS

cincity.bsky.social•99 days ago

You better bookmark this one Scott.

pragmaticlimits.bsky.social•99 days ago

They will just “investigate”, harass and smear their political opponents so no qualified person is ever in power again.
This is what everyone screaming about the “end of democracy” was talking about.

jaymeruimveld.bsky.social•99 days ago

edeburca.bsky.social•99 days ago

Sure. However a deep dive will be taken into their lives, every official and unofficial action will be sifted through, and once any mis-step is identified, THEN they’ll be prosecuted. For legitimate reasons, of course.

peacockblu.bsky.social•99 days ago

He can say that anyone not running directly against him isn’t a ‘political opponent’, and go after them

fairygardens.bsky.social•99 days ago

She's lying.

cottagedweller.bsky.social•99 days ago

The GOP has made an embarrassment and a laughing stock of this once great nation.

cottagedweller.bsky.social•99 days ago

Political opponent of whom?

trainer12.bsky.social•99 days ago

That is a bold face lie. She has publicly stated that she will "investigate the investigators." and "prosecute the prosecutors," for going after her new boss Trump. That's perjury so vote no, don't confirm her.

tvarol.bsky.social•99 days ago

Ahahha reminds me a question to Erdogan. Why do you imprison journalists? Erdogan: They re not journalists. They are terrorists.

excannbiz.bsky.social•99 days ago

bwhaaaa..now go tell your boss that news Pam.

slackingpro.bsky.social•99 days ago

Why tell the truth? Once confirmed the President, with immunity, can just pardon his lackys.

bklynnative.bsky.social•99 days ago

Did her nose grow or her pants catch fire?

brucecox.bsky.social•99 days ago

💯 lie

welshrarebit.bsky.social•99 days ago

This ritual can only be called quaint. They lie at the hearings, and everyone knows that the promises will be broken on day 1.

skd2024.bsky.social•99 days ago

Yeah well Supreme Court justices said Roe was settled law and they wouldn’t change it but then once confirmed they overturned it. #lieslieslies

gringo-2.bsky.social•99 days ago

"Oops. I meant UNLESS."

robyn780.bsky.social•99 days ago

LOL

the-dude00.bsky.social•99 days ago

Remember when the last three chief justices said Roe was settled law! They straight up lied to the senate! Pam would not be the candidate if she comply with Trump’s impulses

golden-oldie.bsky.social•99 days ago

I'll believe it when I see it. Perhaps she has not technically talked to Trump about this you know that someone in his circle has already told her to do it in exchange for her nomination.

tygator.bsky.social•99 days ago

All these Trump cabinet picks will do whatever they have too to get through these hearings including lying, just like Trump does.

abbylynn55.bsky.social•99 days ago

But leaves open prosecution if Trump wants it.

bluenypatriot.bsky.social•99 days ago

They just lie. Why not? Zero consequences for lying during these meetings. SCOTUS nominees do it all the time.

donnab217.bsky.social•99 days ago

Her promise or a head of lettuce?

lynnisse.bsky.social•99 days ago

Betting on the lettuce.

lbabbitt.bsky.social•99 days ago

Just like, "Roe is settled law".
Another lie.

msdavinci.bsky.social•99 days ago

They’re not going to prosecute them for political acts, they’re gonna contort the law until they can harass and investigate and threaten “criminals”, like Liz Cheney, Seth Meyers, anyone else who upsets the 🍊. Made up stuff and kangaroo court. I keep thinking of the judge in Kyle Rittenhouse trial.

pmmcdaniel.bsky.social•99 days ago

Well, we know that's a lie.

sparklerblue2.bsky.social•99 days ago

radiobill.bsky.social•99 days ago

Reminds me of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zj1DZCLv79c

danst3.bsky.social•99 days ago

Sure. Just like Pete Hegseth said he wants women in combat. And the SCOTUS nominees said Roe was settled precedent...

shogirl.bsky.social•99 days ago

Is that the same as "Roe v Wade" is established presidence, and I will not overturn it. Said 6 Republican appointed Supreme Court Justices. Republicans lie, support liars, and don't have a problem doing it! Our new normal.

dr0923.bsky.social•99 days ago

What’s the point of these hearings being “under oath” when all they do is lie and nothing happens?

amiemcwayne.bsky.social•99 days ago

“Political opponent” is a relative term to her. It’s a gray area that she’ll exploit later

whtru8n4.bsky.social•99 days ago

Exactly!!! She was then Gov Rick Scott's Fla AG after all, so she's got lots of dirty tricks up her sleeve.

janetfay.bsky.social•99 days ago

Absolutely. Bondi will do whatever trump tells her to do.

amiemcwayne.bsky.social•99 days ago

There will be crimes we will never know about. Trump learned during his 1st term that he can only appoint loyalists, no matter how inept they are. We have no guardrails but midterms.

stephenbowlby.bsky.social•99 days ago

Pantsuit on fire.

menaganey.bsky.social•95 days ago

They’re not running for president or office…they’re not opponents.

rankenory.bsky.social•99 days ago

“Because” leaves an out here. She can say later that the defendant’s political activities had nothing to do with the prosecution, that she prosecuted them because they committed a crime. Convenient coincidence.

emmyem24.bsky.social•99 days ago

Her statement doesn’t preclude prosecutions of House J6 committee members.

caffeinatedsurf.bsky.social•99 days ago

Reminds me of Kavanaugh, Coney Barrett & Gorsuch saying Roe was settled law.

twl55.bsky.social•99 days ago

Yep.. and pigs can fly

jeannebobeanieisat.bsky.social•99 days ago

Cool. The likely AG lied under oath.

entprof.bsky.social•99 days ago

That’s what’s common folk refer to as a lie

jenninnh03867.bsky.social•99 days ago

This chick has zero qualifications for this position other than promising the convicted felon to do his bidding Typical of all his picks

kimnoreen.bsky.social•99 days ago

Since she's under oath, maybe attach her (and other candidates) to a lie detector to be immediately called out when they lie. We all KNOW she has been in constant conversation with the 🍊

palapala19.bsky.social•99 days ago

Two faces has she.

bert926.bsky.social•98 days ago

FACT: Run for president and lie like hell and the top 1% will throw money at you, so they can be part of the new regime; "oligarchism"!

santamarian.bsky.social•99 days ago

I have to call BS on this one. She wouldn't be up for the job if she didn't give fealty to the Pumpin Mussolini and his persecution complex.

sherry6767.bsky.social•99 days ago

🤥

brebie66.bsky.social•99 days ago

Liar

flynavy77.bsky.social•99 days ago

They will say what will sell to gain their nomination.

Do not forget the two most recent conservative Supreme Court justices assured us all that Roe vs Wade was settled law!

Do not trust MAGAts to put an oath, or their country, above subservience to the dictator Trump.

teebo63.bsky.social•99 days ago

Didn’t someone say the same about roe v wade?

brewedflames.bsky.social•99 days ago

All the cabinet nominees will lie to get elected. Just look at their background if constant corruption. Do not confirm them

ohffs100.bsky.social•99 days ago

Where’s Joe Wilson when you need him?
