Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, at a committee hearing on Attorney General Bondi, notes that an FBI director was arraigned for making a false statement, and says Bondi made "arguably even falser statements" the day before. He says she left the current FBI director "completely exposed" on what Whitehouse calls multiple false statements: that his grand jury testimony in the Mar-a-Lago case had been sealed by the department, was under court order not to be released, and had since been publicly released as a transcript.

I should say the day before yesterday, stands in really stark contrast to yesterday. Yesterday an FBI director was arraigned for making a false statement. The day before that, the attorney general of the United States made arguably even falser statements. We'll see how the other case turns out. And she left the current FBI director completely exposed on his multiple false statements that his grand jury testimony in the Mar -a -Lago case had been sealed by the department, was under court order not to be released, and had since been publicly released as a transcript.
