During an appearance on Friday's broadcast of NewsmaxTV's "Wake Up America," U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) reacted to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi's dismissal last week.
Moore, a candidate for Alabama's open U.S. Senate seat, attributed Bondi's departure to things she had "missed," including her handling of the Epstein files.
"Well, you know,I think it's probably a couple of different pieces and parts to the puzzle. You know, the weaponization of the DOJ against President Trump, and Todd Blanch kind of defended him in the Jack Smith trial. I sit on Judiciary Committee. So in many ways, if you think about what they put President Trump through, as he was impeached twice. Ninety-one days before an election, they raided his home, 96 felony indictments. He spent $76 million on legal fees. They put all his friends in jail, including his very own. I mean, just his chaperon, the people that were around him, his friends. And so there's some underlying currents there I think Todd's very familiar with."
He continued, "And you couple that with the Epstein files. And I think in many ways there are some things that Pam has missed, that there's an opportunity for us to bring somebody in. And I think Todd's very familiar with the case, obviously defending against Jack Smith and the things that they put the president through. So we'd like to see some movement on some of that. And I think that it's time for a change to see if we get somebody in there that can handle that.
