| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawson with this Great American Show, midday update for Tuesday, October 7th. Sparks are flying on Capitol Hill today. Pam Bonney was up there testifying before the Senate Judiciary hearing. And boy, was she having some fun. A Democratic senator's attempt to expose Pam Bondi as, quote, corrupt blew up in his face when she hit him with some devastating news. |
| 0:23.5 | You guys all know Senator Bloomingdale, right? Danang Dick, who was in the military and |

| 1:59.2 | Rough day for Senator Blumenthal, who's a known liar getting the beat down from none other than Pam Bonding. |
