Attorney general nominee Pam Bondi said she wants to end the political weaponization of the Justice Department that she argued has been rife during the current administration.
In Wednesday’s confirmation hearing, Ms. Bondi told Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, Rhode Island Democrat, that she would apply the law fairly and would never craft an enemies list if approved for her position.
She said the DOJ’s weaponization against President-elect Donald Trump in recent years, with the department headed by Merrick Garland, is sowing division in the country.
