Experts warn Trump’s AG pick Pam Bondi could be more dangerous than Matt Gaetz
Former Rep. Matt Gaetz has withdrawn from consideration for Attorney General under President-elect Donald Trump. Gaetz faced scrutiny due to past allegations of sexual misconduct, which made his nomination controversial among Republican senators. Trump has now nominated Pam Bondi, a former Florida Attorney General known for her loyalty to him. Bondi has a legal background and has defended Trump during his impeachment trial, but some experts express concern about her potential to misuse the Department of Justice. Critics argue that Bondi's experience makes her a more effective and dangerous choice than Gaetz. They worry she may support politically motivated investigations and undermine the independence of the Justice Department.
