Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday stonewalled a question at a Senate Judiciary Committee about who ordered FBI agents to flag any documents that mentioned President Donald Trump during a review this year of investigative files about the late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein.

Sen. Dick Durbin, in a letter in July, mentioned that purported order to FBI agents as he asked the Justice Department about past promises to release the Epstein files and a subsequent decision by Bondi not to do so.

"So, who gave the order to flag records related to President Trump?" Durbin, D-Ill., asked Bondi at Tuesday's Judiciary Committee hearing.

"To flag records which included his name?" Durbin asked.

Boni bristled as she answered, "I'm not going to discuss anything about that with you, senator."

Durbin replied, "Eventually you're going to have to answer for your conduct in this, you won't do it today, but eventually you will."

Questions about what happened to the $50,000 in that paper bag need answering.

That said, they seem almost like quaint artifacts from a bygone era while Trump's crew is busy looting the entire country.

Almost like the touching naivety of queries about why Trump is flop-sweating to bury the files on his "former" BFF pedo Jeffrey Epstein.

Any bets on when Maxwell's pardon comes through?

Not sure which will be first, the Pardon or her Epstein-esque 'suicide' in the low security playground she's been put in; easy access for assassins.

The latter seeming more likely now that the SC has told her to F off.

Absolutely.

I think that we all agree that Maxwell will either be free, rich, and arrogant or deader than a doornail.
