Wed Feb 11, 2026, 11:40 AM

Rep. Raskin: "But to promote justice for the people, you've got to listen to the victims like the women seated behind you today. Those are just some of the hundreds of survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's global sex trafficking ring who are demanding that the truth be told and are demanding accountability for the abusers who trafficked and raped them you still haven't met with these survivors."

"Now, you're not showing a lot of interest in the victims, madam attorney general, whether it's Epstein's human trafficking ring or the homicidal governmental violence against citizens in Minneapolis, as attorney general, you're siding with the perpetrators and you're ignoring the victims that will be your legacy unless you act quickly to change course."

"You're running a massive Epstein coverup right out of the Department of Justice. You've been ordered by subpoena and by Congress to turn over 6 million documents, photographs and videos in the Epstein files but you've turned over only 3 million."

"Some of the victims had come forward publicly, but many had not. Many had kept their torment private even from family and friends. But you published their names, their identities their images on thousands of pages for the world to see. So you ignored the law. And even with over 100,000 employees at your disposal, you acted with some mixture of staggering incompetence cold indifference, and jaded cruelty towards more than 1,000 victims raped abused and trafficked. This performance screams cover up."

"There's no sign of any movement at the Department of Justice. You even launched a criminal investigation into Renee Good's grieving widow. How sick is that? But it's even worse. You've turned the people's Department of Justice into Trump's instrument of revenge. Trump orders up prosecutions like pizza, and you deliver every time."

"So we ask you politely but firmly, madam attorney general please do not waste one second of our precious time by evading questions, by changing the subject, or engaging in personal attacks against members of Congress. We saw your performance in the Senate, and we're not going to accept that this isn't a game. The Senate you brought something with, you called a burn book, a binder of smears to attack members personally for doing the people's work of oversight please set the burn book aside and answer our questions."

this vile creature. However, saying that “we won’t accept this” is exactly what congress will do. We keep accepting the unacceptable and that’s maddening. Unless she’s held to some kind of account for what she’s doing (and not doing), we’re accepting it.

She is evil...plain and simple. No feeling, no empathy, and no compassion. She feels nothing; therefore, she cannot be reached on a humanitarian level.

I can't wait to see her behind bars.

I'd say you could see her soul leave her body during Raskin's magnificent summary of her perfidies, but it had left years before. Hollow.

to Trump and her dereliction of her duty to the Constitution and the American people.

I can only imagine the kind of comments Jordan and Gaetz must, or at least should, be hearing from their fellow Congress people.

She has her own agenda and her elegance is to tRump alone, she's immune to the deaths of others. Their legacy of injustice and cruelty will not stop until their kind are hauled out of power or in front of world courts.

Thank you to all of those people who 'loved Mr. Trump' the candidate, ignored all the history and facts, but voted for these monsters anyway. This is on you.

As much as we can fingerpoint at Pam Bondi, the asshole sitting next to Mr. Raskin is equally to blame for the chaotic climate that has been created!

These hearings do not but show the public how unqualified his cabinets picks are. I have never seen such disrespect from a person who barely got confirmed. I lived in FL when she was AG and she was never this bad. Bad, but not like this. This is the trump show and she is starring in it . Can she mention how great he is one more time?

She should be treated with contempt along with the rest of the MAGA nazis, every time one of them is encountered.

The time for treating these bastards with any form of respect has long passed. We don't need to be screaming assholes like they are, but any respect toward them is now becoming a ridiculous waste of time.

All the way back to FL. As FL AG, she buried a case against Epstein that had information that would condemn Trump, too. Donnie protected her then, and promised her the AG spot, so she is confident that nothing will happen to her, because Trump will protect her again.
She's about to get a rude awakening, especially if her shenanigans in FL are brought back to light. She is a pedo protector.. And Trump can't protect her anymore..

The fact alone that she did not redact victims names but redacted the perpetrators is so infuriating for me. Everything they released was probably checked over and over again because they are carefully shielding certain perpetrators. They did not redact the victims names on purpose.

All she did was fling accusations against California (specifically crimes committed in CA) back in his face. Obviously that little speech of Bondi's was pre-planned because she was reading stats off a printed sheet. It was probably in her "burn book."

Also she lied under oath. Jordan jumped in to stop her from doing worse.

Jamie Raskin has shown remarkable courage and stamina in Congress, especially during the last few years when he’s had to battle cancer and deal with the loss of his son while battling the never ending lying and gaslighting of this administration. He has my deep respect and admiration.

All she cares about is protecting the Rapist in Chief and the YUGE payday she's going to reap from the billionaires she's protecting and serving.

Oh, but what if they all behave like the Rapist in Chief? Loyalty is a one-way street with him, and the other billionaires might just follow his lead! What then, Pammy? You could probably be an ambulance chaser, they make pretty good livings, but not billionaire style. And it's hard work!

Poor Pammy! What's a sycophantic Floridian to do?
