Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) has become the subject of heated discussion following the release of a leaked video that seemingly shows him dozing off during the high-profile confirmation hearing for Attorney General-designate Pam Bondi. The video, which surfaced online on Wednesday, depicts Schiff with his head tilted and eyes closed while Bondi responds to rigorous questioning from the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The footage quickly went viral, drawing criticism from political opponents and reigniting scrutiny of Schiff, who has faced mounting challenges since his censure by Congress last year. Critics have labeled the incident another embarrassment for the California senator, while his supporters have called the accusations exaggerated and opportunistic.

The hearing for Bondi, President-elect Trump’s nominee for Attorney General, was already marked by contentious exchanges. The former Florida Attorney General faced pointed questions regarding her stance on presidential pardons, her preparedness to oversee the Department of Justice, and her potential role in politically sensitive investigations.

“Senator, I have not reviewed any of those files. If confirmed, I will examine the files related to the pardons as well as the ongoing investigation.”
