Attorney General Pam Bondi was not calm and collected during her Wednesday, February 11, congressional hearing with the House Judiciary Committee — and The Daily Show is roasting her for it.

“Congress had a lot of serious questions for her on everything from ICE to Epstein, and I’m sure she handled them with the grace and maturity we have come to expect from the Trump administration,” host Jordan Klepper jokingly began on the Wednesday episode of the late-night talk show.

The broadcast then cut to a compilation of Bondi, 60, shouting at members of Congress. At one point, she called Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler “a washed-up loser lawyer,” and Republican Rep. Thomas Massie a “failed politician,” as she faced questions over the latest batch of files the Department of Justice released about the Epstein scandal.

“I mean, you can do something like that in Congress, but when I do it in a Chili’s, I get banned for life?” Klepper joked. “To be fair, though, you’d be in a bad mood too if you spent the last month redacting images of old man genitals from the Epstein files, allegedly.”

Klepper then likened Bondi’s behavior to a “bratty senior who got called into the principal’s office.”

“Her performance upset a lot of people because they were hoping for justice for Jeffrey Epstein‘s victims. But for Pam Bondi, there’s only one victim in all of this,” Klepper explained before a series of clips played of Bondi defending and praising President Trump during the hearing.

“Have you apologized to President Trump, all of you?” Bondi asked her fellow politicians in one clip. “You sit here, and you attack the president, and I am not going to have it.”

Bondi also insisted Trump, 79, is “the most transparent president in the nation’s history.”
