President-elect Donald Trump has selected former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as his pick for Attorney General after Matt Gaetz withdrew from consideration.
Announced Thursday, Bondi’s nomination follows her long-standing ties with Trump’s circle and her legal career in Florida. Trump praised her as “smart and tough,” emphasizing her “America First” values.
Gaetz’s withdrawal came amid Senate opposition due to unresolved allegations. Bondi, known for her media presence and legal expertise, is expected to have an easier confirmation process.
Bondi previously worked in Trump’s administration and defended him during his first impeachment trial.
