Pam Bondi Hit With Impeachment Threat Over Epstein Files Failure
REDACT THISRep. Ro Khanna said those who obstruct justice at the DOJ will face consequences.
(snip)
Khanna, a co-sponsor of the Epstein Files Transparency Act along with Republican Rep. Thomas Massie, said he and Massie had their sights set on top DOJ brass after Fridays heavily redacted, Clinton-forward Epstein files dump.

The issue for her is not, are there 212 Democrats who would support it? continued Khanna, 49. The issue is how many Republicans and MAGA supporters would support it. My hope is, she looks at the outrage that MAGA has, she looks at the disappointment the survivors have, and makes a decision over the next two weeks to release these documents. She may lose more Republicans than she anticipates.
An impeachment effort against Bondi, Blanche, and any other DOJ brass would test the loyalty of congressional Republicans, the majority of whom didnt sign the discharge petition forcing the Epstein Files Transparency Act vote, but almost unanimously voted to pass it.

Top DOJ brass, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, 60, and FBI Director Kash Patel, 45, have attempted to downplay the Epstein files for months, with Bondi going so far as claiming in June that the release of more files was neither appropriate or warranted. A month later, reports surfaced that she told Trump his name was in the files.

I sure hope attempting to impeach, or threatening to, is not a load-bearing pillar of the Congressional Dems' game plan.
