Fiery exchanges during Attorney General Pam Bondi’s appearance before the House Judiciary Committee had one conservative radio host calling for her removal from office.
Bondi’s testimony during the House session was filled with tense moments as Democrats grilled her on files related to the deceased convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. At one point, Bondi called out Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) over his “theatrics” and blasted Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) as a “washed-up loser lawyer.”
But her response when asked specifically about prosecutions irked conservative radio host Erick Erickson, who declared Bondi “should be fired or resign.”
“When the Attorney General of the United States is asked why she has prosecuted no one related to Jeffrey Epstein and this is her answer, she should be fired or resign,” he wrote in a post on X. “But neither will happen, which is another reason the Democrats are going to have a good election year.”

Bondi fired back at Nadler for asking a “four-minute question,” informing him, “I’m going to answer the question the way I want to answer the question.”
Nadler asked, “How many of Epstein’s coconspirators have you indicted? How many perpetrators are you even investigating?”
The attorney general reminded the lawmakers that the Justice Department had released millions of Epstein-related files, and she blasted Democrats for trying to distract from President Donald Trump’s accomplishments.
“You can let her filibuster all day long, but not on our watch. Not on our time, no way. And I told you about that, Attorney General, before you started,” Raskin snapped.
“You don’t tell me anything, you washed-up loser lawyer! You’re not even a lawyer,” Bondi fired back before going on to defend Trump and praise him as “the most transparent president in the nation’s history.”
“None of them asked Merrick Garland over the last four years one word about Jeffrey Epstein. How ironic is that?” Bondi asked before rolling out the booming stock market numbers.
“I don’t know why you’re laughing. I hear you’re a great stock trader, as I hear, Raskin,” she said in response to Raskin evidently laughing at her response.
“What does the Dow have to do with anything? That’s what they just asked? Are you kidding?” Bondi responded. “The Dow has shattered 50,000 for the first time. This is crazy. They said it couldn’t be done in four years, yet President Trump has done it in one year.”
Social media users expressed their own take on the exchange, but many blasted Erickson for his post calling for Bondi to be fired.
Why do you think Merrick Garland didn’t prosecute anyone when he was AG? He had all the same files. Did you call for him to also be fired or resign?

You do know that covers previous AGs as well?
Did you post this about Garland?

Fair. But who on the Epstein list did the democrats prosecute? They are all in on it

This clip misses context. When she brings up the stock market she is calling out Dem hacks for their hypocrisy and pointing out that Trump’s successes are the only reason they are talking about Epstein. A distraction. The hearing had nothing to do with justices or victims.
