Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday for an oversight hearing.
We reported earlier how she nuked Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) with the murder rate in his own state.
Durbin questioned the “rationale” behind deploying the National Guard to Chicago, seemingly unaware or indifferent to the attacks on federal agents and ICE facilities occurring in his state.
🚨BREAKING: Durbin attempted to TRAP Bondi into talking about her conversations with Trump on deploying the National Guard to Chicago.
She LET HIM HAVE IT!

“As you shut down the government, you voted to shut it down, and you’re sitting here while our law enforcement officers are going unpaid,” Bondi countered.
“I wish you could love Chicago as much as you dislike President Trump. As it stands, the National Guard is on its way to Chicago. If you’re not going to protect your citizens, President Trump will,” she responded.
That’s spot on. It’s astonishing that Democrats are so entrenched in their dislike for Trump that they neglect to protect Americans. Local Chicago police were reportedly ordered not to respond when federal agents were rammed and surrounded. Trump is aiding Chicago. He shouldn’t have to, but it’s the Democrats who have been failing the state.
