Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Fat lot of good it will do. She got the gig in the first place because of her innate ability to lie with a straight face. She's basically a press secretary with a law degree.

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago

She is a fascist propaganda operative. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Grill her for 11 hours straight like the BENGHAZI hearings. She won’t be able to handle it, not even slightly.

The playbook for blowing up a controversy was established long ago. Apply it to the Epstein files, which are the actual proof of pedophilia among the “elites.” They’re monsters, and they need to be exposed.

This was and always has been the biggest story there is.

You know what's fun? Watching these people pretend like the rule of law actually matters and that Bondi won't just fucking lie anyway, if she even does bother to show up.

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 4 points 2 days ago

True but have you ever seen her being asked uncomfortable questions by journalists? She'll fold like a well-oiled lawn chair.

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 days ago

What a waste of time. Bondi won’t be able to recall much past her name.

"I don't understand why you're dragging me here for this. Trump's mission for the DOJ is quite obvious. He gave us the explicit mission to protect him at all costs and to enact vengeance on his political enemies. What is so hard to get about that? I'm doing my job! Wait, what? The American people? What? Who the fuck cares about them?"

This is STUPID! If She Knew Trump was "In" the Files then this WHOLE Saga would make her COMPLICIT in COVERING UP PROLIFIC CHILD RAPISTS! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

Hire some mercs. Drag her out and try her in public. In front of everyone.

And by trail I mean a trial. Witnesses documents everything. Unfortunately that won't happen.
