Convicted Felon Donald Chump continues to target America and attempt to destroy the country. Thom Hartmann explains:
People ask, “Are we there, yet? Has America gone fascist? Are we now in a militarized dictatorship?”
Last
week’s illegal, unconstitutional military assault on an apartment
building in Chicago argues “Yes.” And if it doesn’t stimulate a similar
level of public outrage as the Jimmy Kimmel suspension did, we’re all
screwed.
And by “all” I mean you, too. None of us are safe if all of us aren’t safe. We have to stand up and speak out now.
Trump,
Vance, Hegseth, and Noem carefully selected a low-income apartment
building filled with Black and Hispanic people, correctly believing that
the American mainstream media wouldn’t give it the coverage they would
if ICE and our military had instead kicked in the doors of a building
full of middle-class white people.
Soldiers
rapelled from Black Hawk helicopters as some 300 masked agents ran
throughout the apartment building kicking in doors, dragging American
citizens out (including near-naked children) into the street and
zip-tying them for hours.
They then trashed
multiple apartments, ripping up furniture, smashing windows, breaking
and scattering possessions, and removing and carting away phones and
laptops. No warrants signed by judges were presented and one ICE thug,
when asked about the shivering American citizen kids standing in the
freezing cold, said, “F--- the children.”
This
is the exact same sort of thing that British forces did against the
colonists in the 1770s that provoked our nation’s Founders to write in
the Fourth Amendment to our Constitution:
“The
right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and
effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be
violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause,
supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place
to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
MAGA
is delighted; puppy-killer Noem claims people were “clapping in the
streets,” although there doesn’t appear to be any evidence of that. MAGA
folks seem to think that because they’re white they’re safe from attack
by this regime.
But when they’re done with the brown folks, they’ll be coming for the wite people next. They’ll start with Democrats — Trump called them “Satan” last week — but history shows they won’t stop there.
President
Donald Trump is “seriously” considering invoking the Insurrection Act
in order to more easily deploy National Guard troops to major cities as
part of his push to thwart crime, NBC reported on Wednesday, based on
“five people with knowledge” of the situation.
That is very disturbing. Comments on the article:

The
only way for him to avoid prison for his hundreds of criminal actions
is to stay in power. To do that, he has to either start a real war, or
get people to believe in a fake one, to rely on an ability to postpone
elections.

The
Insurrection Act of 1807 is the U.S. federal law that empowers the
president of the United States to nationally deploy the U.S. military
and to federalize the National Guard units of the individual states in
specific circumstances, such as the suppression of civil disorder, of
insurrection, and of armed rebellion.
He considers the legal and lawful protests as a reason to use American NG vs Americans. God help us all!

Wednesday, October 8, 2025. Attorney General Pam Bondi made a
complete ass out of herself before the Senate Judiciary Committee
yesterday. Let's explore that.
Isaiah's
latest THE WORLD TODAY JUST NUTS "DaBImbo Bondi, Freak Of Her Own
Party" Freak Show AG Pam daBimbo Bondi explains, "It's me daBimbo
Bondi. I acted the fool in the Senate today. I showed the country why I
have no man, why I hve no children. I'm staring down 60 and in my
party I'm a freak. But I will never forget last November when fat ass
Chump stood before me and said, "Pammy, you re just the right amount of
stupid to be in my administration." Miss Sassy JD Vance heckles Bondi
by exclaiming, "Childless cat lady!" Isaiah archives his comics at THE WORLD TODAY JUST NUTS.
daBimbo
Bondi appeared before the Senate Judiciary yesterday and caused quite
the stir. First, there was the odor. She hd n inflated sense of self
so it's always funny when an overly confident person thinks they are
being so impressive but everyone around them thinks otherwise. She's
smirking and acting like she's winning but all anyone's thinking is,
"Does she not clean her vag?" Because one person after another was
talking about that odor. I didn't smell it but I've got a cold and went
into that hearing with menthol over all my resonators. But Pam be
stanky. And how she couldn't know was what everyone was asking. So
when you see a video clip of her grasp that she stunk up the room and
that's she's apparently so pathetic she doesn't even use soap and water
-- and she really needs to.
After that, the thigs that
stood out was the bad make up. She really is staring down 60 -- next
month -- as Isaiah noted in his cartoon. On that, I just shake my
head. It's as though she learned how to put on make up in the 80s at
Merle Norman. Bags under the eyes do not disappear because you put make
up on them but what the does accomplish is to make any wrinkles under
the eye all the more visible. Doesn't DoD have it's own private beauty
salon now? Miss Pete won't help her out?
I stared at
her awful performance and thought all she was missing was her throwing
wine as she tried to come off not like an Attorney General but like a
'reality' TV performer. In fact, let's drop back two decades to pull
from Ava and my "TV Review: The Simple Life:"
"Where the hell are we?" is the last thing you hear as the opening credits end at the start of Fox's "reality" show The Simple Life.
If you've missed the show, let's us put you wise, hell is apparently
portable and seems to follow Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie around.
[. . .]
The
most frightening thing for us was thinking that young viewers watching
might think, "This is how to act. Paris & Nicole act this way and
they were raised well, right?"
If nothing else, The Simple Life
demonstrates that "money" and "good breeding" do not go hand in hand.
Older viewers will probably get that point. Younger viewers will
probably be salivating over the day when they too can wear push up bras,
march around in stilettos and bark out orders like, "Take off your damn
pants!"
Pam was as fake as any 'reality' TV performer and as screwed up in the head as any. Cher has a favorite curse word. I don't use that word. I've never used
it my entire life. She uses it frequently. That's her business, not
judging her. But if ever I was tempted to use it would be to describe
Attorney General Pam daBimbo Bondi. Pam kind of says it every time she
says "country." I don't go harsh on the "u" in the first syllable. Pam
does. Maybe she's trying to share something with us about herself.
Let's pull in Lawrence O'Donnell's take from MSNBC last night.
He's
going into Pam at the start of the above video. Later in the program
Senator Adam Schiff joins him. My honest first reaction watchin
lastnight was, "Oh s**t." Because I planned to touch on Shiff here and
usually if Lawrence touches on it, there's nothing more to say. That's
true of two topics they cover but I had a third and they didn't grb that
so we will in a minute.
It's audio above, take it up
with MSNBC. I have no idea why so much is not going up at the MSNBC
YOUTUBE page. But let's note some video coverage before we unpack
further.
Now let's move to the line of questioning that I think covered and reflected the hearing best.
Senator Mazie Hirano: For the record, at
your confirmation hearing, you said that you did not have experience
with FISA but, if confirmed, you would consult with experts at DOJ. Now
that you've had that opportunity, do you support adding additional
safeguards for searching American communications in the 702 database?
AG
Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senators, Section 702 is a vital source of foreign
intelligence and instrumental in keeping Americans safe. We also take
individual rights of American -- they're individual rights of all
American very seriously and many statutory reforms to FISA have
incorporate safeguards. They have to incorporate our safeguards to
protect our civil liberties. The Dept of Justice looks forward to
working with you to discuss anything regarding 702. Appreciate that my
staff and senator I also want to thank you for this hearing.* Your
staff met with my staff and I greatly appreciate that. Thank you.
Senator
Mazie Hirano: Thank you. We're going to be working on 702 so I
appreciate the openness to further amending 702. At your confirmation
hearing, you assured me that it is the Dept of Justice's decision to
determine what cases will be prosecuted. Last month in the US, US
Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia was forced out. President
Trump then posted the message [displayed on the screen] behind me asking
about prosecuting James Comey. You then appointed a new US Attorney
who within days secured an indictment against James Comey. That social
media post behind me says what about Kobe was directed to Pam. Are you
the Pam the president was referring to?
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: I'm sure I was.
Senator
Mazie Hirano: So it's very clear to me that when the president posts
something like that, that he considers the DOJ to be his law firm and
you his lawyer. And in fact, very shortly after the post to you, Comey
gets indicted. President Trump's new border czar Tom Homan was video
taped taking a bag with $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents after
suggesting that he could help with government contracts. Sounds like a
bribe. Did DOJ officials shut down the bribery investigation into Mr
Homan? Ms Bondi, did you approve closing the Homan investigation?
Bribery investigation?
AG
Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator Hirano, as I stated earlier, the Dept of
Justice and the FBI conducted a thorough review and they found no
credible evidence of any wrong doing. You were also on video outside
the White House protesting with a group called Cava where Antifa members
were. Does that mean you're a member of Antifa?
Senator
Mazie Hirano: No, I simply asked the question as to whether or not you
approved the shutting down of the investigation of Mr Homan. I have to
assume you did because the FBI, it reports to you. But the American
people would look at this situation where the person is taking $50,000
-- $50,000 in cash, no less. And you testified today that a thorough
investigation was done. Now I have to assume -- I conclude -- that since
no wrongdoing was determined that -- in answer to Senator Whitehouse's
question -- he [Homan] kept the money. He kept the money and I hope
that he put that on his tax returns as income. Next question. Over 1200
rioters were convicted of charges related to January 6th President
Trump has since pardoned nearly every one of them. As if that weren't
enough, last month there were reports that a lawyer for the January 6th
rioters met with senior DOJ officials about setting up a compensation
fund -- a compensation fund like the one Congress set up after 911 --
to compensate these rioters. Miss Bondi, is anyone at DOJ considering
setting up a compensation fund for January 6th rioters? Yes or no?
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator, I have had no meetings or discussions about a fund.
Senator Mazie Hirano: So would you support such a fund?
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator, you can send me the information on the fund and I'll be happy to look at it.
Senator
Mazie Hirano: But do you think that's a good idea to, you know, this is
what I'm getting at, because just to actually set up a fund and have
people talking with your senior people at DOJ -- political people --
about creating a fund and you won't let us know what you think about
that . . . Yeah, that's pretty unbelievable. On January 30th of this
year, the Trump DOJ's anti-trust division sued to block the merger of
two tech companies. Then well connected lobbyists met with your
political deputies who overruled the career staff and approved the
merger. So there's a settlement on that. And, separately, DOJ sued
TicketMaster last year for monopolizing concert tickets and forcing
consumers to pay outrageous fees. TicketMaster has hired the exact same
lobbyist who met with senior DOJ political people regarding the merger
of the two tech companies. So my question is, Ms Bondi, have lobbyists
met with your political deputies about the TicketMaster case?
AG
Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator Hirano, as I stated earlier, I am not going
to discuss anything that is ongoing. Gail Slater runs the anti-trust
division.
Senator Mazie Hirano: And I was --
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Gale Slater, if I can finish, Gale Slater is doing an incredible job running my anti-trust unit.
Senator
Mazie Hirano: It's highly likely, Ms Bondi, that the same lobbyist who
met with your people basically got rid of the anti-trust case.
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator, I don't think a lot of people like that you were out protesting with Antifa.
Senator Mazie Hirano: Right
now, next question, you have fired dozens of career prosecutors because
they worked on cases involving President Trump or January 6 rioters.
For example, one career federal prosecutor secured -- who secured over
100 convictions in Florida. He also spent time in DC prosecuting
January 6th cases. He received an outstanding review only two days
before you signed a memo firing him. The memo cited no reason for his
firing. Are you firing career prosecutors solely because they worked on
cases like January 6th that the president doesn't like?
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator Hirano, I'm not going to talk about personnel matters with you.
Senator
Mazie Hirano: Well we all know that hundreds of career prosecutors
have left the DOJ and literally hundreds of were told --
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Senator, I
[Cross talk]
AG Pam daBimbo Bondi: Are you an ICE officer? Are you a Homeland Security Officer? Are you?
[Cross talk]
Senator Mazie Hirano: But
just say that DOJ losing these career prosecutors and the thousands of
hours of experience they have prosecuting criminals, that is not a
reassuring situation.
AG
Pam daBimbo Bondi [note in this statement, she stops and starts and
talks over Hirano non-stop]: Senator, many employees took the fork in
the road and resigned. DOJ is hiring committed prosecutors who will
actually come into the office and work and not work remotely and
prosecute violent criminals around the country and terrorists. And I'm
very proud of the work all of our
[Crosstalk]
Senator
Mazie Hirano: I'm running out of time so I think you should stop with
your continuous interruptions. In my opinion, Mr Chairman, I just want
to close by saying that what was once the Dept of Justice has become
the Dept of Revenge and Corruption.
Rather than pursue cases without fear or favor, this DOJ seeks to favor
the president's friends and instill fear in his alleged enemies. If
you're a friend of the president, this corrupt DOJ will bend over
backwards to help you. Just like it dropped the bribery investigation
on Tom Homan, like it's considering paying money to January 6th rioters
and like it has put anti-trust decisions in the hands of well connected
lobbyists. But if you're on the wrong side of this president, you will
face the wrath of DOJ no matter what the facts, law, or justice support.
James Comey is indicted days after the President social media
directive. Experienced career prosecutors are fired just because they
were assigned to work on January 6th cases. Blue states are sued to get
highly sensitive, private voter data whereas red states are left alone.
The double standard is clear and the American people are waking up to
the corruption and the favoritism and the lawlessness of the DOJ.
So
much in the above. First, Antifa? What was that attack, what was that
smear? This isn't appropriate. And it's inappropriate in a manner
that people are missing. With Senator Sheldon Whitehouse she would
attack his wife and imply that some shady corrupt deals went down. With
Senator Dick Durbin, she would attack him for one of the donors to his
campaign. And this really ties into Adam Schiff.
Chump
has long targeted Adam Schiff. He wants him prosecuted for whatever
trumped up charge they can find. He mentioned Adam in the social media
post to Bondi about him wanting Comey charged.
Here's
the only significant thing Bondi did in the hearing: Gave Adam a pass.
If he is charged with anything, all Adam's attorney needs to do is show
the way she attacked him in the hearing. It wasn't objective. It
wasn't appropriate. It was filled with malice. And I think a jury
would quickly agree that Bonid came off unhinged and appears to let
personal feelings determine who she charges.
But with
her threats and with Antifa being labeled a terrorist organization by
her and Chump? Was it really the role of the AG to bring thses things
up in hearing because they could also be seen as veiled threats due to
the position she holds.
She's a dumb bimbo, she doesn't
et any of that. She can scream 'are you an attorney' at Schiff all she
wants, she's still not a person with common sense.
With
Hirano above, she refused to answer questions regarding Homan taking
$50,000 from undercover FBI agents. She repeatedly invoked "personnel
matters" -- as though it was the Fifth Amendment -- with senators asking
about Homan. That's not a personal matter. That would be a crime.
And it is in the public interest to know whether or not Tom Homan took a
bribe. She doesn't want to be ccountble and she doesn't want to answer
questions.
When not refusing to answer with the claim that
something was a personnel issue and she wasn't going to comment, Pam
would insist that she couldn't comment on an ongoing investigation.
Is Homan now the subject of an ongoing investigation?
If not, there's no reason for her to avoid the question.
But
she doesn't think that she works for the American people. For example
it is "my anti-trust unit." No, Bondi, it's the American people's
anti-trust unit.
She has no concept of what government is and that
goes to the reality that Chump chose the most ignorant people in the
world to serve in the administration.
She disrespected the Senate
yesterday. They were doing the people's business so her lies and scorn
were aimed at the American people. Only an idiot would treat their
boss that way. Donald Chump is not her boss. The American people are.
She made very clear that she doesn't believe -- despite being a public
servant -- that she has any duty to serve the American people and that
she doesn't feel she's answerable to them.
She's an
idiot and a moron and that came through loudly over and over. Senator
Cory Booker asked about grants that had been cut and the appeal process
for them. She "And I believe one is with the city of New Jersey."
Idiot. There's no city of New Jersey in the state of New Jersey. Or
take when she was yelling at Adam Schiff and screeching that he needed
"to apologize to Donald Trump for trying to impeach him,"
She doesn't even know the law. We get that right?
Adam Schiff wasn't part of an effort to try to impeach Chump.
Chump was impeached. Twice. He wasn't removed from office but he was impeached.
But she's such a stupid idiot.
That's what really shined through in her testimony yesterday.
If
she wanted to look like stark raving bitch -- Congrats, Pam, you'll
pulled that off. Throughout the hearin, she had to rely on his huge
binder and was constntly reding from it. Even reding from it, she
couldn't get the English language correct.
