WATCH: Sen. Hirono questions Attorney General Pam Bondi on FISA safeguards, Jan. 6 rioter fund

Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, questioned Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday as she testified for the first time before the Senate Judiciary Committee since her confirmation hearing in January. The oversight hearing, focused on the Department of Justice, comes on the heels of a number of controversial decisions from the agency. That includes the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey that came days after President Donald Trump directly called on Bondi in a social media post to prosecute Comey and other perceived political foes. Ahead of Bondi’s testimony, more than 280 former DOJ employees wrote a letter urging Congress for more oversight due to the “degradation” of oaths to the Constitution and to upholding the law under the Trump administration. “Members in both chambers and on both sides of the aisle must provide a meaningful check on the abuses we’re witnessing,” the letter read.
