“There was no integrity in that room today, it seems like, when it came to Epstein and Maxwell,” Teresa Helm said after Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing.
Six survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse and two members of another accuser’s family said they felt “degraded” during Wednesday’s contentious House Judiciary Committee hearing, at which Attorney General Pam Bondi refused to face them and apologize.
Several Epstein survivors and relatives were on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers grilled Bondi for over five hours about several matters, including the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein case. She was specifically questioned about why released files were heavily redacted and why several survivors’ names were not.
“There was such a lack of empathy today. There was such a lack of, honestly, humanity today,” Dani Bensky said on NBC’s “Hallie Jackson NOW.”
Bondi’s the kind of person whose first response to hearing about the Epstein file, or any rape, is, “What were they wearing?”
This hearing was a total disaster for Bondi. There was no hiding what a monster she is, and it’s now come out that photographers captured images of her burn book which included info from illegal DOJ surveillance of members of Congress search histories of the Epstein files. Bondi is spying on Congress while they review the Epstein files, a blatant violation of the separation of powers.
It’s only a matter of time before Trump throws people under the bus, and hopefully she will be among the first.
I don’t wish harm but to very few people, and Pam Bondi is one of them. I would pay big money to be able to punch that bitch right in the kisser.
Just make sure you wash the shit off your fist afterward.
Funny you should say that. In this administration everything is for sale, you just can’t afford it.
Because that’s what she did, so it is right that they feel that way. DOJ don’t give a shit about them. Only the people in power.
if you have empathy/ a conscience/ a soul–trump is not appointing you to anything
Pam Blondi the lapdog
The lack of commom decency from these “federal officials” reveals their false claims of holding certain beliefs as their own, rather than just an advertisement to gain entry to these offices. So of course it’s treason when their lies fall on un-groomed ears so they are ‘performing’ as their freedom depends on it. The flippant responses to seasoned congress members - the newly installed beligerant and farsical congress members - the lack of quality acting is only complemented with the actual white supremist beliefs echoed and chanted repeatedly, while kissing up to thier own in the most bizarre fashion of ‘authority’ worship I have seen outside of B-movie dialog.
Doesn’t watching her speak at these hearings feel like watching a shitty instagram reel? Like, where did she learn her fake-ass behavioral cues and gestures?
1 in 5 people you meet lack empathy. I got these numbers from reporting the US military made to the office of general accounting. The military gives everyone a psychiatric evaluation. Its the only place to get a accurate number on this. Due to the fact that almost all of them avoid any type of therapy. I can’t find the link right now but if I find it later I will post it.
Edit: Here you are. For my not surprising number of doubters. This is where I started when I went down the path toward finding the numbers I’m using. I rarely bookmark anything on my phone as its barely useful when doing anything serious but I bookmarked these pages on it.

Its up to all of my detractors here to read through it. Here is a hint if you disagree and get upset reading it you may be one of the people I’m talking about. Not that you will admit it.
If you read this and notice that some of the people around you who cause you pain and stress act and do these things to you. You may be a victim. I encourage you to seek therapy. Those that have this problem will not want you to and try to convince you its not right to do so.
The most common thing they will do is try to scare you and embarrass you. The best thing you can do is not tell them until you have been in therapy for a while. There is no point in arguing with them. They will never admit fault. Its one of their most telling traits. A inability to admit fault and truly apologize. The best they can ever do is feel sorry you feel that way. Not sorry they hurt you but just sorry you hold them accountable for it. That is how they are crippled emotionally.
I am a detractor who read these sources. You can too if you have any interest in the subject.
The first one does not mention statistics at all, just describes why you shouldn’t call people narcisistits because it has a specific definition that is overly applied. Ironically enough.
The second source does mention some statistics. But actually verifies the questions that were raised by other curious folks. It states that only .5 percent of the population experiences NPD and that 20 percent of the military does.
This verifies that the military survey is NOT the only source of statistics and that 20 percent of every one you meet doesn’t necessarily “lack empathy”.
So, a relief, I suppose, for now.
Although, the claim that anyone who questions a random internet comment are all the same person and are definitely controlling narcissistic a holes has not been verified.
But it’s probably true. I will not look any further into it for fear of self reflection.
The military doesn’t give everyone a psych eval.
Anyone seeking a higher clearance goes through one. But that’s not a full accounting, the vast majority of people never need a clearance beyond the general Secret that almost everyone gets. No real psych eval for that.
Some specialized jobs get them as well. And I think some combat jobs get them by default… but mostly no. It’s just the standard, “can this person both follow orders and be trusted to do the job they were hired for?”
Anyone who fucks up which most of the lower functioning ones with NPD get tested as well. It not a choice between the military and some other large sampling. Its the only place where its done at all other than in the field of psychology. which is a lot fewer people and well most of the time people in that field are victims of the subject matter we are discussing.
I know this because I have spent hours and hours reading and search for information on it and nothing you say will change it. I sure am getting a lot of push back about it here three ‘people’ trying tell me I’m wrong is kinda telling in and of itself. No argument you make changes anything.
Three " ‘people’ " huh. That seem to suggest a lack of empathy towards anyone who applies a minimum amount critical thinking.
No one should take a claim like that at face value, period. If there is some evidence for it then the burden of proof is on those who make the claim, not the other way around.
Must be a part of that 20 percent to dehumanize anyone who questions you so easily. Maybe there is some truth to the claim after all.
The only place to get an accurate number on this thing you should totally believe about everyone you meet is a test that the military definitely doesn’t give to everyone but can maybe be sourced probably.
Nope. The only place to get any idea about a true number is the military. Anyone who needs a security clearance gets tested. Which is more and more everyday. Anyone who fucks up gets tested. Which is most of them. There is no other place that can give you a accurate number due to the nature of people with no empathy. Instead of arguing with me go look for numbers on Cluster B disorders Particularly NPD. Anyone who lacks empathy exhibits it in some form. What you will find is a very low number of these people seek out help. Most of the testing done in the civilian world is court ordered. They will never seek out help for something they see as a superpower. What possible problem could there be for not giving a shit about others?
There is no other source with as large of a sampling of US citizens. I really wish I had time to find that site with all the information about it. It had a huge number of nested pages outlining the psychology of these assholes.
The only other place where testing is common is among people who are in a psychology field, either as a student or a practicing professional.
The number is 1 in 5 and its probably higher than that. I don’t care what you believe I know I’ve developed a really good skill at spotting them. Plenty of tells with their sort.
Why would the military be a representative sample? Maybe when we had the draft, sure. But even then their were conscientious objectors, and of course women weren’t drafted. And plenty of people voluntarily enlisted even in the Vietnam era.
Is it not reasonable to expect that those with high empathy levels would be less likely to voluntarily enlist? Knowing nothing else, I would expect the military to select for those with low empathy levels. It’s an obviously useful ability if your job is to kill other human beings. And you’re supposed to carry out orders without any consideration for the consequences of those orders or who they hurt. That sounds like an extremely low-empathy environment.
Cool cool. And how does this source you wish you could find about a biased sample of the public, the only one possible of course, quantify “lacks empathy”.
Go away. when I have time and at home I will find it and post it but I’m sure you will find fault with it as well.
Until then I will remained convinced that 20 percent of the entire human population is some quantified amount of psychopathic.
links in my original post. I drew three people or three accounts arguing against it this time. Not one in five but consider the subject and the subjects of the subject.
First source says .5 percent of the population and 20 percent of the military. Which is exactly what you were questioned about.
1. The military is a biased sample.
2. The military is not the only source of statistics.
Also, kind of a shit source that doesn’t appear to reference anything, to be fair.
