AOC to @premthakker.bsky.social: Pam Bondi was behaving so erratically at a hearing today because she knows she’s implicated in a cover-up to protect a pedophile ring by redacting perpetrators’ names, withholding files, and unexplainably transferring Ghislaine Maxwell to a cushy facility.

I’m sure the lawmakers who were outraged that their toll (phone) records were obtained in the course of a predicated federal investigation through a subpoena are going to back Rep. Jayapal in being outraged at just lawless surveillance of her (and likely others’) search history, right?
"It is totally inappropriate and against the separations of powers for the DOJ to surveil us as we search the Epstein files. (US Attorney General) Bondi showed up today with a burn book that held a printed search history of exactly what emails I searched." - Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA).

A NOAA scientist cannot speak with a reporter unless there is a 'listener' on the line with him or her. It seems more like Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union than the US."
