Pam Bondi showcased a visible cancer bandage peeking through her shirt ahead of the Epstein probe. Bondi made her much-awaited return to Washington, D.C., for the Epstein probe. She faced questions from the House Oversight Committee about her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Bondi previously confirmed she had been diagnosed with thyroid cancer.
Pam Bondi appears with bandage in court
Pam Bondi’s cancer bandage was visible when she appeared before the House Oversight Committee on May 29 regarding the Epstein investigation. The former U.S. attorney general displayed her cancer bandage, covering a small portion of her neck, hours after undergoing treatment for thyroid cancer.
The former Attorney General walked past reporters and cameras as she arrived at the Capitol. Notably, Bondi donned a burgundy blazer, trousers, and a white shirt underneath. This marked her first appearance since her cancer diagnosis and subsequent surgery.
She spoke with lawmakers privately, behind closed doors. This is after the House panel voted in March to subpoena Bondi as part of its ongoing Epstein probe (via The Mirror US). Interestingly, Bondi’s hearing will not proceed as originally intended by panel members. As per the original idea, the former attorney general would have had to sit for a formal deposition and testify under oath.
However, now, Bondi will only take part in a private interview that will not be sworn in or recorded.
Her diagnosis comes after departing the Justice Department, and she has spent the recent month “recovering” from surgery and was “doing well.”
A source close to Bondi shared that she received her diagnosis “shortly after” leaving the Justice Department. They added that she underwent necessary treatment and is on the road to recovery.
In other news, a TikToker who is identified as Caitlyn Aguiar has been fired from her job after she posted a video wishing the worst cancer upon Bondi. Understandably, Aguiar received backlash from users on the internet. The backlash seemingly prompted her to deactivate her socials (via Fox News).
