Democrats say that Attorney General Pam Bondi’s massive overhaul of the Justice Department “will take decades to recover from,” in the wake of a contentious Senate hearing with Bondi this week.

Bondi’s defensive and combative attitude during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday, in which she repeatedly refused to answer Democrats’ questions, has left many concerned about the future of the department.

Under Bondi’s leadership, more than 4,500 Justice Department employees have left, task forces dedicated to probing criminal activity have been disbanded, resources have been re-allocated to support Trump’s targeting of political opponents and more.

dems: "we were given at least a decade of fair warning that republicans would cannibalize the country. we even got a hundreds of page layout in print. we didn't care and for whatever reason are pretending to care now."

more like decades of warning, and Experimentation: see florida, texas, and the rest of the south. instead of chatising the boogeyman the likes of aoc, Madhami, and BERNIEs of the future.

Oh fuck right off. They presented Project 2025 to the people and they didn't vote against it. Hillary literally told us Trump was a Russian puppet in the biggest stage she had and we (collectively) didn't listen.

We all allowed propaganda to destroy us. You didn't do any better about it than the Dems did.
