Attorney General Bondi downplays need for Signal chat probe as lawmakers push for investigation

Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that Trump administration officials discussed sensitive plans in the Signal group chat but clarified that no classified information was involved. Bondi downplayed the Signal scandal during a press conference, urging focus on previous investigations concerning Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden.

Critics, including CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig, argue that Bondi should initiate an investigation into the Signal chat leaks, which they believe require scrutiny.
Clinton responded to Bondi’s comments, calling the situation “staggering hypocrisy” and emphasizing the potential danger to military personnel.
