While on the Hill for her Attorney General confirmation hearing on Wednesday, Trump nominee Pam Bondi got into a heated exchange with Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) while discussing the 14th Amendment.
“Your job will be — I’m speaking — your job will be to protect voters and election workers. Not to undermine and doxx them,” Padilla said to Bondi.
“Now I know that earlier you agreed that Joe Biden is, in fact, president. But many of the president-elect’s inner circle continue to spread the big lie about the 2020 election,” Padilla said before Bondi hopped in.
“Senator you were speaking — may I speak?” Bondi asked as Padilla tried to pivot. “You cut me off when I was speaking.”
“When I ask you the next question you can speak and I hope you answer, Ms. Bondi,” Padilla said.
After several moments of cross-talk, Bondi said emphatically “I’m not going to be bullied by you Senator Padilla.”
Bondi also told Padilla, “I’m here to answer your questions, I’m not here to do your homework and study for you,” when she was asked about the 14th Amendment.
