The View hosts slammed Attorney General Pam Bondi and other members of President Trump’s cabinet after she testified before the House Judiciary Committee regarding the Jeffrey Epstein files and other matters related to the Department of Justice, which she oversees.
During a spirited debate about Bondi’s “unacceptable” behavior during the testimony, Ana Navarro gave a somber assessment of Bondi and the rest of Trump’s cabinet.
“They sold their souls in order to be in the circle of power and they know that what they are doing is not right,” she said. “Members of this cabinet, they like the title, they like the frills, they like the perks.”
Sunny Hostin called Bondi out for taking shots at Rep. Jamie Raskin, who she called a “washed-up loser lawyer,” according to reports.
“The facts don’t mean anything to these people,” Whoopi Goldberg reminded her co-host.
Joy Behar noted Bondi’s decision to ridicule the lawmakers during the testimony seemed “very Trumpy.” She compared it to when President Trump once told a reporter, “Be quiet, piggy.”
“It’s the same mentality,” Behar said. “She’s mimicking Trump.”
Hostin complained Bondi’s behavior during the hearing was “beneath the dignity of the office,” prompting Goldberg to scoff in response.
“If we start talking about ‘beneath the dignity’ we’d be here all day,” she quipped.
Navarro claimed during the show that she has known Bondi “for many years.”
“This was so personally disgusting and disappointing to me,” she said of the AG’s behavior during the hearing. “I knew her in Florida as someone who worked with everybody and was nice and to watch her in this performance as like a high school performance of Lady Macbeth was just unacceptable and a show for Donald Trump.”
Navarro went on to criticize Bondi for refusing to acknowledge the Epstein survivors who were present during the hearing.
“The women have been failed by four different administrations for decades and decades and decades,” Navarro pointed out.
“But she is the one sitting there right now as attorney general ,so you can’t blame it on Merrick Garland,” she continued. “The very least she could have done is turn around and say, ‘You know what I’m sorry we haven’t contacted you. You can be at the DOJ this afternoon.”
The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
