WATCH: 7 moments Bondi butted heads with lawmakers over Epstein

Attorney General Pam Bondi faced heavy scrutiny in a congressional hearing Wednesday as Democratic lawmakers asked a barrage of questions about the Justice Department’s handling of document releases related Jeffrey Epstein. She left many unanswered. Instead, she lobbed personal attacks at Democrats, often saying she wouldn’t “get in the gutter” with them. If Bondi said Epstein’s name, it was to accuse prior administrations of failing to act on the case. She repeatedly accused Democrats of “theatrics,” while shouting herself. “They yell, they cut me off,” she said of the Democratic members of the House Judiciary Committee. “They want to ask a question and don’t want answers because they want to distract from all the great things” that President Donald Trump and his administration have done. We compiled several moments in the hearing when Bondi sparred with Democrats over the Epstein case. Watch PBS News for daily, breaking and live news, plus special coverage.
