A former GOP staffer and current conservative communications strategist went after Pam Bondi on Saturday, and at the same time noted Jim Jordan’s failure to rein her in.
Maura Gillespie, who worked for Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) and former Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH), appeared on MS NOW over the weekend, where she was asked about why many GOP figures have criticized Bondi’s recent performance at a hearing before lawmakers.
Gillespie joined in that chorus of conservative voices, saying there’s no way to undo the damage Bondi has done. Gillespie accused Bondi of being disrespectful to lawmakers and of “bowing down” to Trump.
She then went on to put pressure on Jordan himself.
“That was a sham of a hearing and I do think Jim Jordan did not do justice to his committee by not holding her more accountable because her outbursts were truly… disgraceful,” she said. “And it brings shame not only to the position that she holds, but also the people who work there. I also found that her not willing to turn around and face the victims themselves was particularly egregious, and really just made me wonder what the point was entirely of her even being there, because her entire career, she has just embarrassed herself now because she says she ran to hold, you know, criminals accountable and to bring justice to victims, and she wouldn’t even face them.”
