Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) joked that Pam Bondi’s firing as attorney general was over the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling below $50,000 on Thursday.
Boebert’s post on X referenced a memorable moment from Bondi’s congressional hearing in February, when the then-attorney general said, “The Dow is over $50,000,” while discussing the administration’s handling of documents related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
President Donald Trump fired Bondi on Thursday, less than two months after this hearing.
