16 january 2025 в 03:37
Pam Bondi has been in the political world for many years, but she reached new heights in her career after being appointed as the potential next Attorney General of the United States. After the original candidate for Attorney General under Donald Trump, Matt Gaetz, withdrew his candidacy at the end of 2024, Bondi quickly became the center of attention. In January 2025, she attended a hearing on her appointment before the Senate Judiciary Committee and promised to «restore trust and integrity in the Department of Justice — and in each of its components» in her opening statement.
«Under my leadership, partisan weapons in the Department of Justice will be put to an end», - Bondi promised, later adding: «If appointed as the Attorney General of the United States, my primary goal will be to return the Department of Justice to its core mission — ensuring the safety of Americans and vigorously enforcing the law. This requires a return to basics — prosecuting violent crime and gang activity, stopping child predators and drug traffickers, protecting our nation from terrorists and other foreign threats, as well as addressing the overwhelming crisis at the border».
