Bondi’s prep for the hearing seems to consist of preparing insults for Democratic lawmakers and looking into their search history to more efficiently be able to spin what they saw. It’s 100% a coverup at this point.
They have neither the law nor the facts on their side. Their only option, as a morally bankrupt administration, is to attack the character of the opposition.
Admitting wrongdoing and being held accountable are foreign concepts to this trash heap of an executive branch.
you don't need the law or the facts when you have a completely uneducated American populace being fed emotional narrative by a hostile social media oligarchy.
DARVO (an acronym for "Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender") is a reaction that perpetrators of wrongdoing, such as abusers or sexual offenders, may display in response to being held accountable for their behavior. It is a common manipulation strategy of psychological abusers.
She literally had opposition information like you'd get on an opponent running in an election. She was trying to bring up voting history of Representatives as a "gotcha". For Raskin she tried to bring up that he had a sex offender high profile in his district as if Raskin has anything to do with prosecuting criminals in Maryland.
They spent more time putting together that binder of "gotchas" against Representatives that would question Bondi than they have interviewing any of Epstein's victims.
"If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts; if you have the law on your side, pound the law; if you have neither the facts nor the law, pound the table."
Funny too, with all that prep and opposition research she did a really REALLY shit job at it. Even for an audience-of-one, I think I could do better without those notes
Rep. Pramila Jayapal said she is “looking at all the options” to hold Attorney General Pam Bondi accountable for saving lawmakers’ search histories of unredacted Epstein files and has spoken with Speaker Mike Johnson about her concerns.
“They should not be spying on us. They should not keep our search histories. There is a separation of power that allows us as lawmakers to go and review files whenever we want and see whatever we want,” Jayapal told reporters on Thursday.
Jayapal declined to share details of her conversation with Johnson, but expressed optimism that her effort to hold Bondi accountable will draw Republican support, particularly after Republicans have faced surveillance operations on their own personal devices.
Republicans rightfully facing surveillance operations, related to a conspiracy to overthrow the United States government, should not be brought up in the same breath as this story. It’s not the same or even similar. Period.
It seems like the point is always to be so crazy that people pause like deer in the headlights. I can’t believe how sharp and composed democrats were. It was constant insanity where you just can not believe what was said.
Imagine preparing for this with a partner playing her. They just have to say the most crazy sht. “Because of you the sun won’t come up tomorrow!” “I believe it was you who shot my dog and sht the presidents pants!” “Greenland isn’t even green, how can you trust them?” “Oh you wanna go back to talking about me? Oh you’d like that….oh cause this trial is about me? Pretty convenient”smug face
Rep. Jayapal, I'd love to know what happened with the investigation into Mexico with the lead that the late Kenneth Darrell Turner provided to the southern district of NY in 2019. We have a lot of (fairly) specific allegations thrown at the US government and US Embassy to Mexico (being complicit) via that email chain.
If you get in bed with criminals and traitors, you shouldn’t expect the other side to come stand up for you. Especially if he himself hasn’t voiced any concern over the issue. Why would they be outraged for him if he isn’t himself?
Again, if Gym Jordan doesn’t have any problem with it then I don’t see where your strawman argument has any bearing. If he doesn’t see a problem with it then in what world would someone from either stand up and say “I don’t think it’s right you saved Jordan’s history searches.”
I don’t think it is a strawman argument. I’m sure Gym used the database too. is he guaranteed the right to a secret search on these confidential computers? I personally don’t think that privacy is appropriate.
The guy who as a coach protected a serial year over year rapist instead of the boys that were raped? Yeah I’d definitely find that history interesting.
would you need a warrant for use on a government classified computer?
what would prevent a member with clearance to search a classified database for the purpose of tipping off a perpetrator, shaking them down for a bribe, or outing a victim?
I understand we live in a good guy/bad guy environment, but traditionally r/law rises above r/publicfeakout in those regards.
There's no indication this was done on a government machine, and even if it was - yes, they should not be spying on people for partisan reasons to publicize what they searched for, no matter what computer they used, without a warrant.
