Bondi has been a vocal critic of the legal cases against Trump and has defended him publicly, calling the prosecutors “horrible” individuals who are “weaponizing our legal system.”
Her support for Trump has been unwavering, including her appearance at his hush-money trial in New York earlier this year, which ended in a conviction on 34 felony counts.
She has promised to stop the “lawfare” many observers claim is happening against Trump and other Republicans.
A Shifting Justice Department
If confirmed, Bondi would inherit a Justice Department poised for significant changes under Trump’s influence. She has promised to stop the “lawfare” many observers claim is happening against Trump and other Republicans.
Analysts also anticipate shifts in civil rights enforcement, corporate regulation, and the handling of January 6 prosecutions. Trump has pledged to pardon many of the individuals charged in connection with the Capitol riot, further complicating the department’s trajectory.
Bondi’s tenure as attorney general would likely reflect her loyalty to Trump, as critics warn of her potential to make changes to the Justice Department.
