As TGP’s Jordan Conradson reported, Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is facing questions from Senators this morning during a confirmation hearing for the U.S. Attorney General.
Bondi, the former Florida Attorney General, was nominated after Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew his name as Trump’s pick for AG.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump Department of Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth’s first confirmation hearing was held yesterday, and he passed the test with flying colors. Now, Bondi is shining as well.
After thoroughly humiliating Dick Durbin when he tried to embarrass her with a question regarding the 2020 election, Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) then stepped in it when he tried to imply she would weaponize the Department of Justice on behalf of President Trump. Of course, Biden’s DOJ is the one that has not made the weaponization of government against MAGA nation a prime priority.
Trump, on the other hand, has vowed to ensure equal justice for all Americans.
Knowing this, Bondi masterfully turned the tables on Whitehouse. She pointed out how Trump was victimized for the past four years, including targeting his presidential campaigns.
Moreover, they launched numerous bogus investigations against Trump and sought to throw him in prison for bogus crimes just for having the audacity to run in 2024.
WATCH:
JUST IN: Pam Bondi totally flips the script on Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D) who tried to make it seem like she will weaponize the DOJ.
Masterclass.

SHELDON WHITEHOUSE: And it would not be appropriate for a prosecutor to start with a name and look for a crime. It’s a prosecutor’s job to start with a crime and look for a name. Correct?
BONDI: Senator, I think that is the whole problem with the weaponization that we have seen the last four years and what’s been happening to Donald Trump. They targeted Donald Trump. They went after him, actually, starting back in 2016. They targeted his campaign.
They have launched countless investigations against him. That will not be the case if I am attorney general. I will not politicize that office. I will not target people simply because of their political affiliation. Justice will be administered evenhandedly throughout this country.
It’s safe to say this was not a fair fight.
