Trump's AG Nominee Pam Bondi Pledges 'One Tier of Justice' at Senate Hearing
Jan 15, 2025, 02:36 PM
Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for U.S. Attorney General, is appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee today for her confirmation hearing. Bondi is expected to face rigorous questioning from Democratic senators concerning her loyalty to Trump, particularly over his past threats to use the Justice Department to target political opponents. Bondi previously represented Trump during his first impeachment and has been meeting with senators on Capitol Hill in the weeks leading up to the hearing. She has pledged to restore confidence and integrity to the Justice Department, stating that under her leadership, "America will have one tier of justice for all." Bondi highlighted her track record as Florida's Attorney General, where she fought human trafficking and helped lower crime rates in the state. Republican senators, including Rick Scott, have praised her performance, expressing confidence in her ability to lead the Justice Department. She is not expected to face significant hurdles to confirmation by the Republican-led Senate. The confirmation hearing is expected to span two days as senators deliberate over Bondi's appointment as the nation's top law enforcement officer.
