“I am proud to announce Pam Bondy, former Attorney General of the Great State of Florida, as our next Attorney General of the United States,” Trump said in a statement. He said Bondy served as a prosecutor for nearly 20 years, during which she was “very tough on violent criminals, and made the streets safer for Florida families.
President-elect Donald Trump nominated former Florida Attorney General and loyalist Pam Bondi as his nominee for Attorney General of the United States. The new nomination comes shortly after former Congressman Matt Gaetz revealed he was withdrawing from the nomination process. Gaetz is facing a House Ethics Committee investigation into allegations of having sex with a girl under the age of 17 and illegal drug use. However he has denied any wrongdoing.
What did Trump say on Palm Bondi?
“I am proud to announce Pam Bondy, former Attorney General of the Great State of Florida, as our next Attorney General of the United States,” Trump said in a statement. He said Bondy served as a prosecutor for nearly 20 years, during which time she was “very tough on violent criminals, and made the streets safer for Florida families.” The newly elected President said that no more.
Why did Gaetz withdraw his nomination?
Matt Gaetz, who was nominated Attorney General for the second term of US President-elect Donald Trump, had withdrawn his name. The move comes as former Congressman Gaetz fears his name may not be approved as the country’s new chief federal law enforcement officer as he continues to investigate prostitution-related human trafficking allegations. A day earlier, Gaetz had met with Senate members in an effort to garner support for confirming his name for the post. “There is no point in wasting time on an unnecessarily protracted debate in Washington, so I am withdrawing my nomination as Attorney General,” Gaetz said.
