When Balint’s time expired, and the out lawmaker yielded back, Bondi asked for a moment to respond, and used it to go on the offensive: “You didn’t ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein,” she said. Balint shot back: “Weak sauce.”
Bondi then escalated: “And with this anti-Semitic culture right now, she voted against a resolution …”
Balint cut her off: “Oh really? Do you want to go there, attorney general?” she said. “Talking about antisemitism to a woman who lost her grandfather in the Holocaust?”
The lawmaker then got up and left the room.
The LGBT were one of the targeted groups by the Nazis as far back as the 1920s. So, saying someone who’d be double-targeted by the Nazis and who’s grandparents were actually targeted by the Nazis for being Jewish was being antisemitic is so ironic its moronic.
