I think she might be going a little deaf. Anytime anyone mentions the files she just keeps asking “Pardon Me?"

    Yawn “could” is doing so much heavy lifting it’s probably doing steroids. This isn’t even news. I’ll believe in consequences when we fucking see some.

    Get back to me when they are saying “will”

    She’s not going deaf. She’s just reminding Trump to hold up his end of the bargain

    I thought the deadline was yesterday. Did we give a new deadline? What makes them think this deadline would be any different?

    Edit: the article is from yesterday.

      This article is from yesterday, presumably before the 11:59pm deadline and before the (highly redacted) files were released.

    Look, the only crime that white people get prosecuted for is if they harm a richer white person.

    She’s safe.

    Face prosection from who exactly? Pam Bondi controls indictments for tampering with evidence and Congressional contempt actions are referred to the DOJ which then go to… Pam Bondi.

      I dont think they have to be refered to the DOJ if congress doesnt want to. Also, Iirc, theres whats refered to as civil contempt, and congress can just vote to order the seargent at arms to lock her up (they can even keep her in some random room on premises if they want) until she releases the unredacted files.

      Not only does this bypass any dependence on the executive and judicial branches; it bypasses their ability to interfere on Bondi’s behalf- she is considered to ‘hold the keys to hwr own cell,’ (as in she can release the files at any time and be freed) and it is considered non punative- there is no right to appeal and no sentence /crime to be pardoned.
