(WND News Center)—Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared before a Senate hearing on Tuesday, a hearing that multiple media outlets considered “combative.”
And leftists online were critical of her presence, her behavior, and her answers, in a situation that appeared to leave Democrats triggered when Bondi refused to allow them to pursue trick questions.
For example, Sen. Dick Blumenthal, D-Conn., suggestively questioned her about her conversations about a certain legal dispute involving a merger.
She responded with heat.
“Sen. Blumenthal, I cannot believe you would accuse me of impropriety, when you lied about your military service…. You admitted you lied … to be elected…. You lied. How dare you. I’m a career prosecutor. Don’t you ever challenge my integrity,” She tossed back.
Then there was Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, who seemed to suggest that there was something inappropriate about the use of National Guard members to crack down on rampant crime in American cities.
Sen. Dick Durbin is going to regret asking this question for the rest of his life. It totally backfired on him.
AG Pam Bondi eviscerated him:
DURBIN: “They are going to transfer Texas National Guard units to the state of Illinois. What's the rationale for that?”
BONDI: “Yeah,… pic.twitter.com/yS2zZFSFt4

Bondi said, “Yeah, Chairman, as you shut down the government, and you’re sitting here. Our law enforcement officers aren’t being paid. … They’re out there working to protect you. I wish you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump. And currently, the National Guard are on the way to Chicago. If you’re not going to protect your citizens, President Trump will.”
An online commenter explained, “Admittedly she did well, but it really was a battle of wits against an unarmed opponent.”
Even leftists trying to portray her as failing, who posted a video of Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-Rhode Island, came up short.
He kept insisting that she explained the details of an FBI case and claims against Tom Homan, the border security chief, that involved a supposed cash payment.
He wanted to know where the cash ended up.
She explained, over and over, the FBI investigated the case fully and found “no credible evidence” of wrongdoing.
She invited him to talk to the FBI about the status of any cash involved.
After she answered his questions, he complained she was incapable of answering simple questions.

Three Reasons a Coffee Gift Set From This Christian Company Is Perfect for Christmas
When you’re searching for a Christmas gift that’s meaningful, useful, and rooted in faith, you don’t want to settle for anything generic. This season is filled with noise — mass-produced products, last-minute picks, and trends that fade as quickly as they appear. But one gift stands apart because it blends genuine quality with a message that matters: a coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee.
This small Christian-owned company has become a favorite among believers who want to support faith-driven businesses while giving friends and family something they’ll actually enjoy. Here are three reasons a Promised Grounds Coffee gift set may be the most thoughtful and impactful present you give this year.
1. It’s Truly Delicious Coffee
Too many “gift-worthy” coffees look beautiful in the package but disappoint when the cup is poured. Promised Grounds takes the opposite approach — exceptional taste first, thoughtful presentation second.
Their beans are sourced with care, roasted in small batches, and crafted to bring out a rich, smooth flavor profile that appeals to both casual drinkers and true coffee lovers. Whether someone enjoys bold, dark roasts or lighter, more delicate blends, every sip reflects quality that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest specialty brands.
Simply put: this coffee is good. Really good. Some say it’s absolutely fantastic. If you want a gift that won’t be re-gifted, ignored, or shoved in a cabinet, this is it.
2. It Spreads the Word While Serving a Real Purpose
There are many Christian gifts that are meaningful… but not exactly practical. There are also useful gifts that have nothing to do with faith. Promised Grounds Coffee bridges both worlds beautifully.
Each gift set delivers an encouraging, faith-centered message through its packaging and presentation — a simple but powerful reminder of God’s goodness during the Christmas season. The cups are especially popular and serve as a daily reminder of the blessings from our Lord. At the same time, the product itself is something people will actually use and appreciate every single day.
It’s a gift that uplifts the spirit and fills the mug. A gift that points loved ones toward Scripture while still being part of the normal rhythm of life. And in a culture that increasingly pushes faith to the margins, giving a gift that quietly but confidently honors Christ can make a deeper impact than you might expect.
3. It’s Affordable, Valuable, and Elegantly Presented
Many people want to give something meaningful without breaking their Christmas budget. Promised Grounds Coffee strikes that perfect balance — the sets look and feel premium, but the price remains accessible.
The packaging is classy, clean, and gift-ready, making it ideal for:
- Family members of all ages
- Co-workers or employees
- Church friends or small-group leaders
- Hosts, neighbors, and last-minute gift needs
It’s the kind of gift that feels more expensive than it is — and more thoughtful than most of what you’ll find on store shelves.
The Perfect Blend of Faith, Flavor, and Christmas Cheer
A coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee checks every box: a gift that tastes amazing, conveys your faith, supports a Christian business, and brings daily enjoyment to the person who receives it. In a season when so many gifts are forgotten, this one stands out for all the right reasons.
If you want a Christmas present that reflects your values and delivers genuine joy, Promised Grounds Coffee is the perfect place to start.
