Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Please, Senator, don't question whether I took a documented bribe from Donald Trump to drop a fraud case in Florida against him as AG. Don't point out that I was Florida AG & let Jeffrey Epstein walk. And please, Senator, don't question that I am/was a registered foreign agent of Qatar. Integrity
