Summary

Donald Trump has nominated Pam Bondi, Florida’s former attorney general (2011–2019) and longtime ally, as his pick for U.S. attorney general after Matt Gaetz withdrew from consideration.

Bondi, known for her work combating drug trafficking and her role in Trump’s impeachment defense, will face Senate confirmation.

Her nomination has drawn praise from Republicans, including Sen. Lindsey Graham, and is seen as less controversial than Gaetz, who withdrew amid past allegations.

Bondi’s past ties to Trump, including a donation linked to Trump University investigations, have sparked scrutiny but have been denied as improper.
