Uncover McKinley's forgotten legacy: champion of tariffs, labor, and American ideals. He challenged British dominance, defended civil rights, and upheld Revolutionary principles.
Today's update features developments around the nomination fights, tariffs, drugs, the Sovereign Wealth Fund and the Mideast from the standpoint of Donald Trump's trampling of the entire globalist architecture.
"Watermelon head" tries and fails to go full sophist and then resorts to simply talking over Bondi in an effort to drown her out. Bondi: "I will follow the law!"
Wednesday was a big day for Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees.
For big former Deep State Departments – the CIA, the DOJ, and the State Department –confirmation hearings in the Senate occurred Wednesday morning with some continuing into the afternoon.
In addition, Russ Vought, who terrifies official Washington because he knows the mechanics of how money gets spent or blocked, had his hearing to head the Office of Management and Budget Wednesday afternoon.
Chris Wright, Trump’s Energy Secretary pick and Sean Duffy, his Transportation Secretary, were also on the Hill Wednesday.
In this post we cover Trump Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi’s stellar appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Bondi continued the mauling of unhinged Democratic Senators begun by Pete Hegseth’s destruction of them in his hearing to head the Defense Department on Tuesday.
We’ll cover CIA Director nominee John Ratcliffe’s hearing on Thursday along with the Marco Rubio Secretary of State Department hearing.
Both of those hearings adhered to Trump’s agenda, with Rubio schooling the Senators on the difference between a “globalist” destruction of national sovereignty and Donald Trump’s nation state America First.
We’ll catch up with Russ Vought’s hearing and those of Scott Bessent at Treasury and Chris Wright at Energy on Friday.
Pam Bondi Thoroughly Decimates Rabid Democrats
Senator Chuck Grassley, is the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee and his opening statement framed the appropriate issue.
Both the Obama and Biden Administrations completely politicized the Department of Justice to go after Donald Trump as a presidential candidate in 2016, as President from 2016-January 6, 2021, and then as a candidate for re-election.
During Biden’s jihad, they also targeted the millions of Americans who support Trump in politicized prosecutions.
They also targeted Grassley’s Senate staff, Grassley and Senator Ron Johnson personally, and House staffers investigating their crimes against Trump. Bondi must clean out the Department and restore Americans’ faith in the institution.
The rest of the story of this hearing is best told in clips from it.
Having apparently learned little from the American people’s overwhelming rejection of them, the Democrats stuck to their deranged “narratives” and talking points throughout Bondi’s hearing. As Senator Eric Schmitt put it, Trump Derangement Syndrome is alive and well on the Democratic side of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Beginning with Sen. Dick Durbin, Democrats tried to get Bondi to agree
that the 2020 election was not stolen,
that J6 was a Donald Trump led insurrection,
that Donald Trump was a reprobate criminal who would involve her in doing criminal things,
that Kash Patel as FBI Director will illegally prosecute everyone in the FBI, DOJ, and much of Washington, D.C.,
and that the DOJ’s “independence” is such that, on behalf of a sitting president, it can initiate four prosecutions against a former President and current political opponent, and call it “just.”
Bondi demolished them.
Here she is doing her thing as Zena, Legal Warrior Princess with Senator Sheldon Whitehouse:
BOOM: Pam Bondi is asked about Prosecuting corrupt DOJ lawyers and then gives masterclass in Biden's corruption:
"Let me give you a really good example of a bad lawyer within the Justice Department, a guy named Clinesmith who altered a FISA warrant..."
After Senator Hirono once again sought the internet award for Senatorial stupidity, Senator Ted Cruz reprised all the Democratic talking points which dominated the morning hearing:
Then, Senator Eric Schmitt, opened the afternoon session by re-enforcing the reality of the unprecedented lawfare which Bondi must assure never happens again:
But saving the best of last, here’s Bondi with Shifty Sen. Adam Schiff. Or, the moniker I favor more and President Trump has also used, “watermelon head.” Schiff tries and fails to go full sophist and then resorts to simply talking over Bondi in an effort to drown her out.

Trump has begun radical surgery on two cancers which almost killed us, the forever war and regime change apparatus and the free trade regime which has wrecked our economy, drugged our population, and allowed an open border invasion and slave trade.
Trump started firing everyone involved in his potential jailing and assassination this week. He killed the foreign funding for regime change wars. He imposed tariffs to shutdown the Fentanyl killing machine on the three countries most involved, Canada, Mexico, and China.
