An enraged Attorney General Pam Bondi blasted “progressive left idiots” for fueling hatred towards National Guard troops — as she vowed to probe whether they encouraged the Thanksgiving eve shooting ambush.
Bondi tore into the scores of liberal lawmakers and media commentators who have criticized President Trump’s decision to deploy federal troops to Washington, DC, suggesting the “disgusting” and “despicable” rhetoric is to blame for any ensuing violence.
“It’s actually sad what our country has come to with these progressive left idiots who are doing this and saying this about our heroes who are keeping them safe,” Bondi raged on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends.”
She added, too, that some liberals who have led the outrage against Trump’s push to protect the nation’s capital — including lawmakers — have security details to protect themselves.
“What these lawmakers are doing, what some of these news anchors on other networks are doing, what their guests are saying is disgusting, it’s despicable,” she said.
“They should be praising our men and women in law enforcement. We’re looking at everything they have said and why they said it and if they encouraged acts of violence.”
