Pam Bondi, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for Attorney General, is on the Hill today for her confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Bondi is generally considered to be one of Trump’s safer nominees but, if the Hegseth hearing is any indication, is still expected to face scrutiny from Dems.
“I hope that the Democrats give the same … courteous consideration to [her] that Republicans did of [Attorney General Merrick] Garland,” Chair Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, told Fox News Digital ahead of the hearing.
“[A]nd I hope people stay within their timeline because we’ve got to move right along,” he added.
Bondi is a former Florida attorney general; she was nominated in November after former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) withdrew himself from consideration.
Bondi is a longtime Trump ally and was a member of his impeachment team in 2020.
