Bondi to Boof Truther: You Better Believe We’ll Stop Biden’s Weaponization of DoJ

The last we heard from Sheldon Whitehouse, he was pursuing his obsession with Brett Kavanaugh’s high-school social calendar and preparing to blow the lid off of “boofing.” (Pun very much intended, of course.) Today, the Democrat from Rhode Island graciously took a few minutes away from those pursuits and his race-restricted social club to question Pam Bondi about … wait for it … the weaponization of law enforcement. 

Seriously? Does anyone within the Senate Democrat caucus actually prepare for these confirmation hearings, or do they just wing it?

Bondi took the opportunity that Senator Boof Truther (D-RI) handed her on a silver platter:

BREAKING: Pam Bondi tells Democratic senator she will not politicize or weaponize the DOJ like it did to Donald Trump

The irony of this is that Sen. Whitesonlyclub — er, Whitehouse, excuse me — has been a big part of the politicization problem. When the FBI’s background check on Kavanaugh turned up no evidence to support Christine Blasey Ford’s vague and unsupported allegations, Whitehouse accused the FBI of covering it up. Almost three years after Kavanaugh won confirmation to the Supreme Court despite the despicable attempts at character assassination from Whitehouse et al, he and other Senate Democrats tried to pressure Merrick Garland into conducting a new FBI background check on Kavanaugh for purely political purposes. 

The very last Senate Democrat on the standing list to pontificate about politicization at the Department of Justice is Whitehouse. Not only was this lecture hypocritical, it was also as incompetently handled as we’d expect from someone who can’t tell the difference between boofing and boffing. 

Chuck Grassley blasted this line of questioning from Senate Democrats in his time with Bondi:

Chuck Grassley rightly just EXCORIATED the Biden Regime’s flagrant abuses of the Department of Justice. Senator Durbin will claim that Trump will weaponized the DOJ, but this is all projection. The Democrats have brought disgrace on the DOJ. Pam Bondi will restore true justice to… pic.twitter.com/OwqC2sJX4h

This is a very good, if necessarily brief, recap of the situation under an administration controlled by Democrats. One might think that Whitehouse — and the White House too, for that matter — would prefer to have this not come up in a confirmation hearing. 

Nor was this the only stunningly inept moment this morning in Bondi’s confirmation hearing. Richard Blumenthal accused Bondi of just saying whatever she thinks will get her confirmed, a rather rich accusation coming from someone whose record of lying about his military service has been well established for the last 15 years. Blumenthal is again the last person in the Senate to lecture anyone about lying to advance one’s career, and this time Bondi let him have it right between the eyes:

Does anyone within the Senate Democrat caucus have a strategic bone in their bodies? Or perhaps Casey Stengel said it better about the almost-as-hapless 1962 Mets: “Can’t anybody here play this game?”
