Fact check: Did pam bondi call for judges to be arrested on Fox News?

1. Summary of the results

The original question oversimplifies a more nuanced situation. Pam Bondi did not make a blanket call for judges to be arrested, but rather made specific statements about prosecuting judges who obstruct justice, particularly in response to the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan ^[1]. Her comments on Fox News' "America Reports" were specifically focused on this case, where she stated "We are going to prosecute you" and "If you are harboring a fugitive, we don't care who you are" ^{[1] [2]}.

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

Several important contextual elements were missing from the original question:

• The statements were made specifically regarding Judge Hannah Dugan's arrest for allegedly helping an illegal immigrant evade ICE ^[1]
• Bondi has made similar statements about prosecuting federal prosecutors, referring to them as part of a "deep state" ^[3]
• She has been actively involved in investigations related to the Epstein files ^[4]
• Her exact quotes included "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me" and "We will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you" ^{[5] [5]}

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question could lead to misinterpretation in several ways:

• It suggests a broad call for arresting judges, when in fact Bondi's comments were specifically about judges who obstruct justice or harbor fugitives ^[1]
• It omits the specific context of Judge Dugan's case, which was the primary focus of Bondi's comments ^[1]
• The framing benefits both:

Conservative media outlets seeking to portray a tough stance on immigration and judicial accountability

Liberal media outlets potentially seeking to portray Bondi's comments as more extreme than they were in context

• The complete context shows Bondi's comments were part of a broader narrative about law enforcement and immigration policy, rather than a general attack on the judiciary ^[2]
