AWESOME: Pam Bondi Turns the Tables on Democrat Senator Sheldon Whitehouse With a Masterful Response When He Snidely Suggests She Will Weaponize the DOJ (VIDEO)
Gateway Pundit ^ | January 15, 2025 | Cullen Linebarger

Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi completely dismantled Democrat Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) after his thinly veiled insinuation that she would “weaponize the Department of Justice.”

As TGP’s Jordan Conradson reported, Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is facing questions from Senators this morning during a confirmation hearing for the U.S. Attorney General.

Bondi, the former Florida Attorney General, was nominated after Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew his name as Trump’s pick for AG.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump Department of Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth’s first confirmation hearing was held yesterday, and he passed the test with flying colors. Now, Bondi is shining as well.

After thoroughly humiliating Dick Durbin when he tried to embarrass her with a question regarding the 2020 election, Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) then stepped in it when he tried to imply she would weaponize the Department of Justice on behalf of President Trump. Of course, Biden’s DOJ is the one that has not made the weaponization of government against MAGA nation a prime priority.

Trump, on the other hand, has vowed to ensure equal justice for all Americans.

Knowing this, Bondi masterfully turned the tables on Whitehouse. She pointed out how Trump was victimized for the past four years, including targeting his presidential campaigns.

Moreover, they launched numerous bogus investigations against Trump and sought to throw him in prison for bogus crimes just for having the audacity to run in 2024.

WATCH:

VIDEO AT LINK.................

SHELDON WHITEHOUSE: And it would not be appropriate for a prosecutor to start with a name and look for a crime. It’s a prosecutor’s job to start with a crime and look for a name. Correct?

BONDI: Senator, I think that is the whole problem with the weaponization that we have seen the last four years and what’s been happening to Donald Trump. They targeted Donald Trump. They went after him, actually, starting back in 2016. They targeted his campaign.

They have launched countless investigations against him. That will not be the case if I am attorney general. I will not politicize that office. I will not target people simply because of their political affiliation. Justice will be administered evenhandedly throughout this country.

It’s safe to say this was not a fair fight.

President Trump has inspired people to FIGHT these government creepozoids. With grace, professionalism, and general good cheer, President Trump’s nominees are telling the Deep State to “stick it in their ear.”

Sadly, that’s not the response I would have liked to hear. The corrupt bastards need to be put on notice that the Trump DOJ is coming after them. The absolute best answer would have been something like this:

“How dare you, Senator. For the past eight years we’ve had to endure a politicized DOJ that has mercilessly persecuted anyone whom the deep state deemed a threat, all the while giving deep state allies a pass even on some of the worst crimes. As Attorney General, I will seek out anyone in the DOJ that had anything at all to do with the decisions made surrounding Hunter Biden’s laptop. All of those people will be dismissed on day one for starters. Those involved in the raid on Mar-a-Lago will go on Day 2. The undercover J6 organizers will follow on Day 3. On Day 4, anyone who had anything to do with investigating traditional Catholics as a terror threat will be fired. On day 5....etc.”

Schiff is infuriating. Pure evil. He makes no pretence for governing the country. He just wants to destroy people who aren’t Deep State.

She should have asked if they considered the current DOJ/AG fair and impartial?

If yes, then she should say she’ll look at the modeling from the current policies.

If No, then she’ll work to change the DOJ to be fair and impartial.

But probably she would not get a yes or no response.

I’ll grant that she’s more than competent for the job, but she will never match the beauty and grace of Janet Reno or Loretta Lynch’s
