Trump selects Pam Bondi as attorney general amid concerns over loyalty and past actions
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as his new attorney general pick, replacing ex-Rep Matt Gaetz. Analysts express concerns about Bondi's loyalty to Trump and her past actions, including shutting down an investigation into Trump University. While Bondi has more credentials than Gaetz, analysts warn of "red flags" regarding her suitability for the role. They highlight her history of defending Trump and promoting false claims about the 2020 election. Critics argue that Bondi's selection reflects a focus on loyalty to Trump rather than serving the public interest. They question her ability to lead the Justice Department impartially.
