Dem California Congressman and gubernatorial candidate Eric Swalwell didn’t necessarily have to vouch for Pam Bondi here. There’s be zero consequences to trolling and saying “Damn right she did last week when I bumped into her at Sweetgreen,” but it’s equally hilarious how he debunks that deranged paranoid suspicion that reportedly led to convicted felon President Trump firing her.
Also worth noting is the echo of a largely under-the-radar episode, reported by Axios earlier this year but dating back to September, involving other psychotic Southern bleach blonde Marjorie Taylor Greene: He and his minions for some goddamned reason suspected her of having tipped off “Code Pink” libs who violated his safe space at some fancy restaurant in DC called Joe’s Seafood, simply because she had recommended it to him at some point beforehand when he asked her what places were good. Greene denied it and had insisted that she never knew if or when he would actually go there and, kind of more importantly, while things were already shaky between them, it was still weeks before everything well and truly went to shit and Marjorie called it quits in November.
Definitely some common threads there with the paranoia and baseless accusations, but also with both if it wasn’t stupid shit like that then it would’ve been something else eventually.
Pam can probably find some solace in that and maybe in this clip of her deputy-turned-acting replacement having difficulty getting one over on tenacious intellectual powerhouse Jesse Watters:
