Political Views

She was expected to easily gain confirmation after the hearing, having received praise from over 110 former senior Justice Department officials, including past attorneys general from both parties.

Her supporters described Bondi as an experienced and motivated prosecutor known for being a consensus builder rather than a bridge-burner. Former Justice Department officials praised Bondi for her extensive experience in community safety, urging her confirmation. Her colleagues in Florida expect her to apply the same strategies in Washington to combat drug trafficking and fentanyl use. Dave Aronberg, who ran against Bondi for Florida attorney general, expressed surprise when she invited him to be her drug czar after her election victory.

Words From Trump

President Trump congratulated Pam Bondi in a post on Truth Social early Wednesday. He expressed his support for her as she was sworn in as the United States Attorney General. "Congratulations to our talented Attorney General, Pam Bondi, who is starting her role today with great support and respect from everyone! I know Pam well, and it was an honor to appoint her. I believe she will be one of the best and most important Attorney Generals in our country’s history. Congratulations, Pam! LET'S MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump stated in the post.

What’s Next for the Department of Justice?

One of her main tasks will be to improve the relationship between police and communities, especially after recent tensions over police actions. Bondi has promised to work together with both federal and local law enforcement agencies to fight crime more effectively.
