Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to turn to face the survivors and apologize for the absolutely unacceptable release of the Epstein files.
Jayapal asked the Epstein survivors at the hearing to raise their hand if they still have not met with Bondis Department of Justice and all of the survivors present raised their hand.
The Washington Democrat then asked Bondi to turn to the survivors to apologize for what your Department of Justice has put them through with the absolutely unacceptable release of the Epstein files and their information.

Bondi accused Jayapal of doing theatrics, and refused to turn to face the survivors and apologize.

REP. JAYAPAL: "To the survivors in the room, if you're willing, please stand, and if you're willing, please raise your hands if you have still not been able to meet with this Department of Justice."
Attorney General Will you turn to them now and apologize for what your Department of Justice has put them through with the absolutely unacceptable release of the Epstein files and their information?
BONDI: Congresswoman, you said before.... umm Merrick Garland sat in this chair twice...
REP. JAYAPAL: Will you turn to the survivors? This is not about anybody that came before you; it's about you taking responsibility for your Department of Justice and the harm it has done to the survivors who are standing right behind you and are waiting for you to turn to them and apologize for what your Department of Justice has done.
What a miscarriage of Justice.

Hey Bondi, he never pays! He is lying to you as well. You are his pawn.

(3,716 posts)... is on the sociopathic spectrum at the DARK end. She is congenitally incapable of exhibiting even a trace of empathy for those she has harmed through her betrayal of the Oath of Office she probably took with a dismissive sneer. The woman has no honor whatsoever. May her downfall be swift and agonizingly painful.
