Breaking on Ari - US House panel subpoenas Attorney General Pam Bondi on Epstein investigation

https://www.newsfromthestates.com/article/us-house-panel-subpoenas-attorney-general-pam-bondi-epstein-investigation

In a statement Tuesday, committee ranking Democrat Robert Garcia of California expressed frustration, saying Bondi “continues to lead a White House coverup” and had ignored the law and a previous subpoena.

“Thanks to united Oversight Committee Democrats, along with the support of several Republicans, the Attorney General will now appear before our committee under oath. No more lies. No more distractions. We want the truth—and justice for the survivors,” Garcia said.

Most committee Republicans, including Comer, voted against the motion to issue the subpoena. But Reps.

His rant was EPIC. If someone finds that clip and can post it- it was
something to behold. THAT is exactly what I'd like to see the Senate do
when they filibuster.

And about the filibuster... Someone should also read every single lie
that ass told in both tRump 1.0 and tRump 2.0. Should keep them
on the floor for weeks reciting that.
