'Don't talk negatively about my friend!' Rep. Moskowitz needles rival James Comer on CNN

Florida Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D) joked with CNN's John Berman Thursday about his love-hate relationship with House Judiciary Chairman James Comer (R-KY) while discussing the potential confirmation of Florida's former Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Berman began, "You are switching committees. People got used to watching you on the Oversight Committee, you know, going after, in some cases, the Chair, James Comer. Now, you're moving to Judiciary, and you talk about Florida — politics in Florida — Pam Bondi, who will likely be the next attorney general from Florida, what do you see as your biggest concerns, vis-à-vis, with the incoming attorney general?"

Moskowitz quipped, "Well, first, John, don't talk negatively about my friend James Comer, okay? And, just because I'm leaving Oversight doesn't mean I'm leaving James, I promise you!"

Moskowitz has been known for sparring with Comer during House Judiciary Committee hearings, once trading barbs about who takes more medication during a hearing called, "A Legacy of Incompetence: Consequences of the Biden-Harris Administration’s Policy Failures.”

“You need to take your medication and leave,” Comer said when Moskowitz challenged him to impeach President Biden. Moskowitz then shot back, “Mr. chairman, you’re several decades older than me, we know who’s taking more medication."

In reality, Comer is 52 to Moskowitz is 43.

Moskowitz also recently posted a photo of Comer's new book next to a public toilet with the caption, "The subway tile work in this bathroom is lovely."

When Moskowitz finally answered Berman's question about Bondi, the congressman called her "very capable."

"You know, as far as Pam Bondi is concerned, obviously, I know the incoming attorney general. I was in the legislature when she was the attorney general of Florida when the shooting happened at my high school, at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas six years ago," Moskowitz said.

"She was the attorney general at that time and was involved in not just the response, but when we put together the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas School Safety Commission to investigate what went wrong that day, and then to work on legislation to make sure something like that never happened again. And, so, I know her fairly well. Obviously, we have many political disagreements, but she is very capable, and I think she'll wind up serving well as the attorney general."
