The 60-year-old clashed with members of Congress, accusing them of \u201cTrump Derangement Syndrome,\u201d and regularly referring to prepared insults with lines including, \u201cYou\u2019re a failed politician<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n On Wednesday night, Kimmel suggested there may be a sinister reason for Bondi\u2019s behavior.<\/p>\n \u201cThis hearing has been on the books for weeks,\u201c Kimmel said in his Wednesday monologue. \u201dBut the stakes were especially high for Pam because there are reports that Trump was complaining about her for not doing enough to punish his enemies<\/a> or administer his enemas.\u201c<\/p>\n Bondi has been criticized<\/a> by Trump for her job performance, sparking rumors that she may not last<\/a> much longer in his administration. <\/p>\n Kimmel continued, \u201cSo Pam Bondi, with the Trump-Epstein files front and center now, had to butter that biscuit as bigly as she could.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Kimmel showed a montage of Bondi\u2019s insults<\/a> while praising Trump\u2019s presidency at her hearing. \u201cHe is the most transparent president in the nation\u2019s history,\u201d she declares of Trump in the final clip.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s right,\u201d Kimmel replied. \u201cHe\u2019s so transparent, you had to black out his name<\/a> like 1,000 times.\u201d<\/p>\n Kimmel joked about Bondi\u2019s demeanor, \u201cIt\u2019s like speaking to a teenage girl. She keeps talking like that, Epstein\u2019s gonna come back from the dead and ask for a massage.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSeriously, there\u2019s nothing to defend here,\u201d Kimmel concluded. \u201cThis Department of Justice is hiding the names of people who are not victims. Why are they doing that? If they have nothing to hide, why are they hiding names?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s it,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cThat\u2019s the only question anybody needs to ask. It\u2019s maddening.\u201d <\/p>\n Obsessed with pop culture and entertainment?
