AG Pam Bondi delivered a fiery response to Senator Adam Schiff during Tuesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, rejecting his accusations that the Department of Justice had become “President Trump’s personal sword and shield.” Schiff, who is currently under investigation for mortgage fraud, claimed the DOJ had targeted political opponents while shielding allies. In a tense exchange, Bondi countered, stating, “If you worked for me, you would’ve been fired because you were censured by Congress for lying.” She also accused Schiff of seeking “five minutes of fame” by attacking “good people” and demanded he apologize to President Trump for his role in the former president’s impeachment. The confrontation highlighted escalating tensions between the attorney general and Democratic lawmakers, with Bondi emphasizing her commitment to impartial justice despite Schiff’s ongoing legal scrutiny.
