Longtime investigative reporter Ken Dilanian, who typically covers justice and intelligence, called out the Republican talking point that they were "wiretapped" by President Joe Biden's administration.

White House call logs were obtained as part of the investigation into the attempt to overturn the 2020 election, revealing who President Donald Trump called, when the calls occurred, and when they ended. Such call logs were public as part of the House Subcommittee that investigated the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. However, the call logs published as part of special counsel Jack Smith's final report included the name of the phone number's owner.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell threatened to go "door-to-door" begging for money to file an appeal after a judge ruled that he and his company defamed voting machine manufacturer Smartmatic.

In a ruling last month, U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Bryan found that Lindell defamed Smartmatic 51 times with claims that the 2020 presidential election had been rigged.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) lashed out at Politico's Kyle Cheney on Tuesday when the legal reporter fact-checked the Republican about his claim he was "wiretapped" by President Joe Biden's administration.

Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigative report, listed in footnote 132 that investigators attempt to overthrow the 2020 election found that the White House called several Republican officials.

In what turned out to be the most contentious exchange between Pam Bondi and a Democrat at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, Sen. Adam Schiff used his time to provoke the attorney general to the point where she lashed out and demanded that the California Democrat apologize to President Donald Trump.

With Bondi shaking her head and sneering as Schiff began his questioning, she eventually launched personal attacks at Schiff, at one point asking whether the Harvard Law graduate had a law degree.

Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) put Attorney General Pam Bondi on notice Tuesday after she made the misleading claim that the senator “stormed” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during a news conference in June, a stunning incident captured on video where Padilla was forced to the ground and handcuffed.

Bondi was testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee at the Capitol when Padilla asked her whether she believed FBI Director Kash Patel was “doing a good job, yes or no?”

Attorney General Pam Bondi shouted down a Democratic senator after she was asked about a tape allegedly indicating that border czar Tom Homan took $50,000 from undercover FBI agents.

During a Tuesday Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT) asked Bondi to confirm if there was "a tape that has audio and video of the transfer of the $50,000."

A former federal prosecutor highlighted some of what he said were unusual tactics Attorney General Pam Bondi employed against Democratic senators in a combative hearing.

President Donald Trump's attorney general appeared Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee, where she appeared to be reading from a sheet of opposition research to attack Democrats on personal and political levels. Politico's Ankush Khardori said she had stepped up her combative stance.

Attorney General Pam Bondi testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday where she was asked pointed questions about sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, former FBI Director James Comey and White House Executive Associate Director of Enforcement and Removal Operations Tom Homan, who was investigated for allegedly accepting a bribe.

The sense from those watching the hearing was that each time Bondi was asked a difficult question, instead of answering, she shouted and made accusations about the Democratic senator she was speaking to.

MSNBC cut away from the grilling of Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday after Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) went on a manic tirade that his phone had been “tapped” by special counsel Jack Smith as part of the Jan. 6th insurrection investigation.

As MSNBC legal analyst Catherine Christian noted during the break, nothing Hawley said was close to the truth.

Attorney General Pam Bondi erupted during a Senate hearing Tuesday after Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) pressed her on the Justice Department’s decision to drop an antitrust suit following lobbying by a firm where she once worked.

In July, the DOJ dropped the antitrust suit filed under the Biden administration against American Express Global Business Travel, which sought to merge with another travel management company, CWT. The merger was heavily lobbied for by Ballard Partners, a Florida-based lobbying firm where Bondi worked prior to her appointment as United States attorney general.

During her appearance at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, an abrasive Attorney General Pam Bondi was called out by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) for responding with insults instead of answers.

Donald Trump’s appointee refused to answer multiple questions, either telling Whitehouse she couldn’t discuss it with him or flatly saying she would answer his questions followed by a personal attack.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) took the surprising step of agreeing with far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) after she blasted her own party for failing to deal with rising health care costs.

During a Tuesday speech on the Senate floor, Schumer noted that President Donald Trump unexpectedly claimed to be negotiating with Democrats about health care on Monday amid a dispute that triggered a government shutdown.
