27. I agree with you, Grim Chieftain

That was an absolutely disgraceful and unprofessional performance which in itself underscores who Bondi's audience truly was: The Grifter-in-Chief.

Bondi has the title of Attorney General but it's all performance to project the reality Trump demands and to protect the throne from all accusation and criticism. The AG wasn't even capable of turning and facing the victims in the room because they are actually obstacles to her real objective--expressing the same disdain and dismissal her Boss has voiced and deflecting attention to other matters.

The stock market went over 50,000, for instance.

Wut? This is taking Trump's infamous weave to brand new heights.

Good news? The theatrics did not work. Bondi simply humiliated herself. Bad news? She utterly disgraced the Department of Justice on live TV.
