Pam Bondi Responds To Basic Oversight Questions By Melting Down For Five Straight Hours

WASHINGTON, D.C.— Attorney General Pam Bondi spent Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee oversight hearing demonstrating that, while members of Congress may technically be allowed to ask questions, nothing in federal law requires her to answer them in any recognizable way.

What began as a routine inquiry into the Justice Department’s handling of Epstein-related files gradually transformed into a five-hour endurance event in which lawmakers repeatedly attempted to obtain simple yes-or-no information while Bondi responded with outrage, personal grievances, and occasional updates about the Dow Jones.

Observers noted a consistent procedural rhythm: a member of Congress would ask a direct question, Bondi would appear personally offended by the existence of the question, and the remaining time would be consumed by escalating volume rather than clarification.

At one point, after being pressed to acknowledge Epstein survivors seated behind her, Bondi declined to turn around and accused the exchange of being “theatrics,” establishing a new precedent in which eye contact with survivors is considered partisan participation.

Whatever remained of standard oversight procedure ended when Maryland Democrat Jamie Raskin tried to enforce time limits, prompting Bondi to shout, “You don’t tell me anything! You’re a washed-up loser lawyer”—before adding, “You’re not even a lawyer!”

After five hours of shouting, deflection, and unanswered questions, the hearing adjourned without clarity, accountability, or a single direct resolution. Epstein survivors left the room the same way they entered it—still waiting.
