President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Pam Bondi as the next attorney general. This decision follows Rep. Matt Gaetz's withdrawal from consideration due to allegations of sexual misconduct. Bondi previously served as Florida's attorney general from 2011 to 2019. She is known for her work on opioid litigation and her involvement in high-profile legal cases. After leaving office, Bondi joined a lobbying firm and supported Trump during his impeachment. She has also led the legal arm of a conservative think tank focused on Trump's policies.
