Attorney General Pam Bondi desperately refused to answer questions about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on Tuesday in a combative hearing where she personally attacked Democrats looking for answers about her department’s handling of documents in the case.

In a scathing attack, Bondi implied that Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) should be more concerned about his own link to the late disgraced financier.

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, Democrat of Rhode Island, asked her about the Justice Department’s decision to drop an investigation into Tom Homan, the Trump administration’s border czar, who was recorded in September 2024 accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover F.B.I. investigation.

Attorney General Pam Bondi faced questions from senators about National Guard deployments and immigrant arrests in U.S. cities, the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, and files related to Jeffrey Epstein,

Bondi has faced bipartisan criticism since the Justice Department said in July it would not release details of its probe into Epstein, despite repeated promises from Trump on the campaign trail to do so.
