Attorney General Pam Bondi’s appearance before the House Oversight Committee behind closed doors will be a far cry from her combative and abrasive performance before the House Judiciary Committee in February that created problems for Donald Trump’s White House.

On Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) was caught by surprise when five Republican members of his committee made it clear they wanted to haul Attorney General Pam Bondi into a hearing to explain her Jeffrey Epstein files foot-dragging.
