Is her surname pronounced "Bond-eye" after Sydney's famed beach and home to Derek Rielly, or "Bond-ee" like kooks call it?
Surfers around the world, a generally confused lot, woke up with a whole new consternation, days ago. Namely, how to pronounce the name of United States Attorney General Pam Bondi. Surf spots have, of course, caused regular bewilderment. The World Surf League, for example, recently announced that New Zealand’s Raglan would be joining the Championship Tour. But would the event be taking place at Indicators or Manu Bay?
Surfboard volume, too, a great divider.
Debate flourishing, surfers around the world bashing heads against wall, trying to sort.
The U.S. Attorney General issue, though, even more baffling. The Blonde Ambition Tour, as she is called in some circles, recently appeared before the House Judiciary Committee desperately trying to refocus attention from the Epstein Files and its myriad victims to a robust United States stock market.
“The Dow is over 50,000 right now,” Bondi sneered. “The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. Americans 401ks and retirement savings are booming. That’s what we should be talking about.”
Surfers unable to focus.
Is her surname pronounced “Bond-eye” after Sydney’s famed beach and home to Derek Rielly, or “Bond-ee” like the kooks call it?
