Erick Erickson, backer of the Mendacity Machine<\/em>[1]<\/a><\/sup>, is upset<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When [President Trump’s Attorney General Pam] Bondi did the initial disclosures about Epstein and trotted the hyper online right to the White House, Bondi blamed Patel and the FBI for not providing her with all the documents.<\/p>\n

Bondi also went on Fox News with John Roberts. Roberts asked, \u201cThe DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s clients. That\u2019s gonna happen?\u201d<\/p>\n

Bondi responded,\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s sitting on my desk right now.\u201d …<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But no, it apparently wasn’t.<\/p>\n

She lied to the American public.<\/p>\n

She lied to the President\u2019s MAGA base.<\/p>\n

She deflected the blame on the FBI.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And therefore,<\/p>\n

If only because she lied to the President\u2019s base and many of his most ardent online supporters, she should resign or be fired.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A sad day for Erickson, but not for the reasons he imagines. Given Trump’s long history of lying, is it any surprise that he’s hired professional liars as well? That he’s hired people he dominates and manipulates because that’s what his fragile ego requires of him?<\/p>\n

I’m shocked that Erickson doesn’t get this. If none of this occurred to him, then it’s a very sad day for him.<\/p>\n

Or is this someone else using the propaganda arm of the GOP<\/strong><\/em> to try to force Bondi out? It seems unlikely, but not impossible.<\/p>\n
