One lawmaker steps ‘on his own rake’ while grilling Trump’s nominee for attorney general
Pam Bondi, the longtime Florida attorney general nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to be the nation’s top cop, took the concept of the politicization of the Department of Justice directly to Democrats during her confirmation hearing on Wednesday.
Specifically, it was Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse who was described by an online commentary at Twitchy as having “stepped on his own rake” while questioning her.
He brought up the incorrect law-enforcement concept of starting with a name, then hunting for a crime for that name.
