PAM Bondi We are waiting for you 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@JulieMcCoy-dm3wu]

President Trump is doing what the people want.

[@carolynmoore796]

Shame on him. Everyone is supposed to do what these Demoncrat career politicians want. We knew you were going to vote for her so why your stupid nasty speeches. Why would she want to have you in her office. So you can treat her like crap some more?

[@glennhalasinski3111]

Yes, we all need to confirm and put Pam Bondi on as the Attorney General of the United States 🇺🇸 of America 🇺🇸 👏 👍 ❤❤

[@Donna-x6f]

Then as she is qualified then she deserves to be voted in. Her qualifications should rule 😅

[@wesleydiamond8380]

Well I'm satisfied with her answer she said multiple times she will follow the law

[@ruthduhaime6016]

I am sad to see Senator Grassley getting older. He is one of the best and most honest we've ever had. Plus he's so smart and thorough. Great job Senator, thank you so much.

[@JinitaQuintin]

Congratulations Pam

[@sharonroossin7814]

Trump just put her in. These Democrats are bully and disrespectful. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@anthonypower1494]

the dems want to look in a mirror and ask themselves if they are good people

[@JohnTussey]

Confirm Pam Bondi

[@neilmccarron3228]

She has upheld the law through her whole life. Why did the dems ask the question . I wouldn’t answer the question either.

[@sharonroossin7814]

Pam Bondi has a lot of strength to not feed into this b.s.

[@stevenbrinkerhoff6756]

Democrats senator's look and act a little scared of Pam Bondi .she's going to KICKASS.

[@scottperkins41]

Pam Bondi is going to be the most wizened and astute LAW ENFORCER our country has ever needed. Please Ms Bondi God Bless your family for this task you are taking on

[@SnakesgamingYT]

[@R.Michael-l9p]

If you want to know what happen to the great people of Illinois and a perfect example of why AMERICA HAS FAILED, YOU ARE LOOKING AT IT. Senator Durbin, I hope the great people of Illinois begin in 2026 ridding themselves of the rot in their government like Senator Durbin

[@AlbertoGomez-x9w]

What are they afraid of? Did they do something illegal?

[@LynnHaralson]

Lost of power!

[@Mary-u6h5w]

They all have

[@Mary-u6h5w]

U have got to be kidding Whitehouse go home for good your nuts....you r the hateful one.😊

[@tortugachica8746]

I’m sure they’ve done plenty of illegal or at the least unethical things

[@janetmccool4801]

They're Democrats....doing their hypocritical job as losers!!

[@l.davesteele3227]

Vote these stick minded dems out.

[@limeaid23]

There's a seat waiting for Padilla on the next flight to someplace else.

[@tortugachica8746]

One can only hope. I’m not sure I’ve ever hated someone I wasn’t very sure intentionally hurt others but I’m fairly certain I hate Padilla with no certainty he’s intentionally harmed others.

[@satyarao6349]

Pam Bondi is the most Qualified.Best wishes Mam

[@Kenzlei-dx4gz]

Whitehouse & Durbin need to move on

[@DontWalkRunProduct]

😅 they're just stalling...

[@SilverDollarSaloon]

Pam Bondi will do a great job as President Trump's AG.

[@kevinstrawbridge4026]

SOMEONE GIVE HER THE POOF TO GO AFTER THEM THEY BROKE THE LAW. WHAT THE SENATE DID THEY ALL SHOULD BE IN JAIL OF FACE A COURT SENTENCE. WE THE PEOPLE DID NOT GET ANY JUSTICE.

[@janetmccool4801]

[@johnschwarzmann7460]

What senator Whitehouse what kind of message did Joe Biden send by giving a full pardon to all the senators that were on the January 6th committee what kind of message does that send

[@Cynthia99911]

The Dems sound scared to me. How come?

[@janetmccool4801]

Hey Whitehouse!... let's talk about Garland! ...or...Mayorkis. How about your weaponised FBI? 😂😂😂...GIVE IT UP. GET OVER YOURSELF! You too Klobuchar!

[@johnschwarzmann7460]

And let it be known that we do reserve the right to put you senators out of office at any time we are your employer you work for us and the United States capitol belongs to us we the people. Senator Whitehouse did Joe Biden give you a full pardon

[@charlesowens9784]

No justice no trust

[@Romeo-y6h]

Matthew 12:34-37 (NASB95): 34 “You brood of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak what is good? For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart. 35 “The good man brings out of his good treasure what is good; and the evil man brings out of his evil treasure what is evil. 36 “But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. 37 “For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

[@mquhanah94]

This people they ar very scarred ,of Pam Bundy, but at thy and she will be conformed ♥️🙏🇺🇲

[@quoitrieu6470]

PAM BONDI , PAM BONDI , PAM BONDI 🤝❤️

[@SoftHeartPC]

Cry 😭 Cry 😭 crying 😭 for his meals 😮 ❤ liberal tears 😭

[@AlbertoGomez-x9w]

Why are they defending the acts of politicizing the confirmation of the nominee?

[@SoftHeartPC]

Any and all presidents have always had the power to stop a bill, Vito, but due to economy laws as well as United States defense, he has executive powers and full control.

[@charlesowens9784]

So the Democrats are above the law still this is very worg

[@rogerstokes9460]

If the Democrats are waiting for another Rachael Lavine it will be a long wait.

[@janettighe7242]

When your country is gone remember you did it.

[@rodolfomateo1257]

Many of your senators are so pachydermic and bereft of principles just like the senators of 3rd world countries like the Philippines. Your people have spoken and 77 million is so tremendous to overlook.

[@erictaylor1958]

Durbin you're a corrupt fool

[@47inventor]

Mr Rodolfo MATEO mga Senador dito sa State ay katulad ng SenaTONG sa PH except Risa Hontiveros..but I disagree with you that PH is 3rd world nation kumpara sa Nigers,Sudan atbp..under d present admin we are gearing towards improving d status of Pinas am hoping dor that..marami kasing Makapili sa mga politiko..thats d truth..sorry to be brutally Honest...Mabuhay po...

[@CliffKlein]

Pam Im sorry these dems kept beinging up Trump while it was YOUR day... go figure

[@jamescook5999]

Just vote her in! Dems are not going to vote for he anyways!

[@kirralove4693]

This is so corrupt 😢

[@cherylhorner3097]

GARLAND SHOULD BE IN JAIL FOR PERJURY AND TREASON / HIGH CRIMES, FOR LIFE

[@williambostongutierrez2038]

The voters republican or Democrat should primary this senator durbin along with is Buddy. Raskinan and the rest of the swampeese out of office and tar & feather them out of DC

[@gradyphillips5722]

How transparent was Biden’s nominees when they were brought before the Senate ?

[@Donna-x6f]

Democrats are not patrician

[@cherylhorner3097]

BUT BARR COMMITTED A CRIME AND DIDN'T RESIGN

[@lauraazzaro2455]

I'd like to know what the democrats are afraid of? After what's been going on the past four years, they have some nerve.

[@tinhusa1]

General Bondi will clean up the swamp

[@igosmosig38]

Pam Bondi is a thousand times better than Biden Mitt Garland! How Ironical and Funny the Democrats are!

[@wesleydiamond8380]

That's okay we're not going to take your word for it we've already seen the real videos where people were just peacefully walking around the police was leading them all through the building no fighting what's happening

[@debbiemesna2411]

It's good that their are some dems that know what's right! Regarding Pam Bondi.

[@cherylhorner3097]

DEPENDS ON HOW THOSE BILLS ARE WORDED !!!!

[@carolynmoore796]

I agree, hes one of the good old timers.

[@cristianadistefano4290]

Corrupt Sen Whitehouse, looks scared AF!

[@jeffbuehler8154]

We are not here to bash our ,,they just cant except they are on the way out

[@AlbertoGomez-x9w]

What does Durbin expect? An invitation to Mara lago for the J6 Cangaroo court?

[@royagbayani5070]

The qualification merits the appointment; and, of course the confirmation by the Senate.

[@_.-AAA-._]

Is the democrat party all women?

[@debbiemesna2411]

This vote for Bondi should not be by Proxy! Also their should NOT BE a problem with Pam's positition on rather she believes or not regarding her opinion of agreement of Trump's 2020 assessment as president. She has a right to her own opinion and sadly she was right! I believe most people would agree that Biden was a bad idea!

[@tortugachica8746]

Here’s my question. If the dems oppose her so vehemently, why not push hard as they can to get as many as they can on their side, push her through to the vote and vote no? They’re just stalling to stall. Everyone’s already made up their minds so they’re just killing time at this point.

[@wesleydiamond8380]

The president of the United States no matter who he is brother he's a Democrat or Republican has full power and the authority over the justice system

[@evie-hg7tb]

Big mistake !

[@CindyTrumble-u4k]

What a bunch of babies

[@SoftHeartPC]

Like I told you Alex Pam Bondi has already been approved and certified.

[@CliffKlein]
