Pam Bondi, the former Attorney General of Florida, has been confirmed as the next Attorney General by a vote of 54-46, with one Democrat, John Fetterman, joining the republicans to confirm her. Since she was appointed, she has already moved to create a “Weaponization Working Group” to investigate the lawfare prosecutions of President Trump and other DNC-CCP opponents.
Bondi also immediately halted funding to all Sanctuary cities, cities run by the party of sedition, the DNC-CCP, that openly defy Federal laws regarding illegal immigration. She also issued a warning to prosecutors that “Targeting of Catholics, Parents, and Pro-Life Americans must stop.”
Senate Confirms Bondi As The Next U.S. Attorney General– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
The Senate has confirmed Pamela Bondi as the next United States attorney general.
The Senate confirmed Bondi in a vote of 54 to 46 Tuesday night, with all Republicans and one Democrat voting in favor of confirmation. The former Florida attorney general earned a reputation for fighting opioid “pill mills,” human trafficking, and organized crime. Trump said when he tapped Bondi for the role of United States attorney general that “she is smart and tough” and “will refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fighting crime.”
“Congratulations to our wonderful and very talented United States Attorney General, Pam Bondi, who gets sworn in today amid tremendous support, and the respect of ALL,” President Donald Trump wrote Wednesday on Truth Social. “I know Pam well, it was an honor to appoint her, and my prediction is that she will go down as one of the best and most consequential Attorney Generals in the history of our Country.”
Bondi will likely play an instrumental role in Trump’s reform of federal law enforcement. If Congress confirms Trump’s FBI director nominee Kash Patel, the duo will be tasked with de-weaponizing an apparatus that, for far too long, has targeted conservatives — from Trump, to non-violent Jan. 6 protestors, to a whistleblower who exposed child transgender mutilations.
Bondi’s office will also face issues like enforcing immigration law, executing antitrust laws against Big Tech, and ensuring equal treatment of citizens by federal agencies.
Our new Attorney General: “My overriding objective will be to return the Dept of Justice to its core mission of keeping Americans safe and vigorously prosecuting criminals. I will do everything in my power to MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN!”
AG Pam Bondi Establishes “Weaponization Working Group” To Investigate Politicized Justice– gellerreport.com Source Link Excerpt:
Attorney General Pam Bondi is set to establish the “Weaponization Working Group,” which will review the activities of all law enforcement agencies over the past four years to identify instances of “politicized justice.”
The “Weaponization Working Group” will review politically motivated investigations including Special Counsel Jack Smith, NY DA Alvin Bragg, NY AG Leticia James, and the prosecution of J6ers.
The working group’s first reviews will include prosecutions against Trump led by:
-Former Special Counsel Jack Smith; who was after President Donald Trump in the 2020 election case and the classified documents case – both were dismissed.
-Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg who pursued the Hush Money case
– And New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought the civil fraud case against Trump and his family resulting in a historic and unheard of $454 Million bond being issued
AG Pam Bondi Halts Funding to Sanctuary Cities– gellerreport.com Source Link Excerpt:
Independent: Hours after she was sworn in, Attorney General Pam Bondi directed the Justice Department to pause all federal funding for sanctuary cities. Among several directives issued Wednesday, Bondi charged the DOJ with identifying and evaluating funding agreements with nongovernmental organizations that provide support to undocumented immigrants. She also tasked the department with investigating instances of sanctuary jurisdictions obstructing law enforcement and “directing they be prosecuted, when necessary.” Several offices within the Justice Department provided $1.56 billion in grants to sanctuary cities in 2023 (Independent).
New York Post: The memo orders an immediate 60-day pause on distribution of funds — with a report on further steps due to Bondi’s desk within 45 days. Bondi’s order also says the DOJ “shall not enter into any new contract, grant, or other agreement to provide Federal funding to non-governmental organizations that support or provide services, either directly or indirectly (e.g., through sub-contracting or other arrangements), to removable or illegal aliens” (New York Post).
