Pam Bondi became Florida’s first female Attorney General in 2010, serving until 2019. After her term, she worked as a registered lobbyist for Qatar at Ballard Partners and joined Trump’s legal team during his impeachment trial. Bondi continued supporting Trump post-2020 election and held leadership roles at the America First Policy Institute.After Matt Gaetz withdrew, Trump nominated Bondi for US Attorney General; she was confirmed on February 4, 2025, and sworn in as the 87th attorney general. July 7, 2025 The Justice Department released a memo stating there is no evidence that Jeffrey Epstein, accused of sex trafficking, kept a “client list” or was murdered. Several right-wing media figures suggested the government was concealing information about Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial. Some promoted the theory that Epstein had a secret “client list” to use as blackmail against prominent individuals. In a February Fox News interview, Bondi claimed a client list was "sitting on my desk right now to review." Last week, the Senate summoned Pam Bondi to Capitol Hill to answer questions regarding the Epstein files. Pursuant to the Epstein Transparency Act that was passed on November 19th, 2025 by the house and senate, the DOJ was required to release all remaining files regarding the child trafficking network that has captured so much of the country's attention since the tranche of files were released in early 2025. The Epstein Transparency Act required the release of all of the files by December 19th, 2025 with ONLY the victims names redacted, the perpetrators' names were to be revealed. The DOJ failed to meet the deadline, instead making a document dump of approximately 3 million documents on Friday, January 30th, 2026.The myriad claims of rape, torture, murder, and cannibalism shocked the senses of all who read. Even worse, this violence toward the world's children has been known by members of the government, some news outlets, and especially Kash Patel's FBI and Pam Bondi's DOJ. Because of the vast conspiracy to cover up the crimes of the ultra-wealthy and deny their existence, Pam Bondi was called before Congress last week to answer questions.Join host Dori DeCarlo along with Bobbi Hughes-Millman and Shirley B. Novak as we talk about Pam Bondi and her turning the DOJ into a shield for the sitting president and more.Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram and BlueSky and click here and come tell us your story!Please support UnsilencedVoices.org a global 501(c)3 nonprofit that empowers survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.

MOMS AFTER DARKWe Will Not Be SILENCED!!!Mere days after seven democrats voted with republicans to fund ICE, enforcement agents murdered an ICU nurse who was helping a woman who had been shoved by the agents who had pepper sprayed them in the face.Alex Pretti was killed by enforcement officers in a Minneapolis protest on Jan. 24, 2026. He was an ICU nurse at a veteran hospital, and was upset by ICE illegal behaviors.U.S. federal officials created lies about him; people who seen the shooting video know he was a good man defending a woman being attacked by ICE.Alex never used his gun, it was taken away when he was shot multiple times in the back. He was legally carrying a gun, in a state which allows both open and concealed carry of handguns in public.The official narrative put forth by federal officials has been challenged by those who witnessed the events and reviewed video footage, painting a picture of Pretti as a man trying to de-escalate a situation and protect an innocent bystander, rather than an aggressor.Click here to watch Dr Heather Cox Richardson Video - she is sharing very important information.The democrats who voted in favor of funding ICE are:• Tom Suozzi (New York) • Henry Cuellar (Texas)• Don Davis (North Carolina)• Laura Gillen (New York)• Jared Golden (Maine)• Vicente Gonzalez (Texas)• Marie Glusenkamp Perez (Washington) Chuck Schumer has made a public statement that no democrats will vote in favor of the funding bill. And there are possibly 2nd Amendment-supporting republicans who will vote with democrats.Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram and BlueSky and click here and come tell us your story!Please support UnsilencedVoices.org a global 501(c)3 nonprofit that empowers survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.
