Summary
Pam Bondi, Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. attorney general, repeatedly avoided confirming Trump lost the 2020 election during her Senate confirmation hearing.
Pressed by Democratic senators, Bondi acknowledged Joe Biden as president but implied 2020 results were fraudulent.
Senators questioned her independence, citing her past claims of election fraud and loyalty to Trump.
Bondi defended controversial figures like Kash Patel for FBI director and refused to rule out prosecuting Trump’s opponents.
Critics warned her appointment could politicize the Justice Department further under Trump’s leadership.
The reason we keep seeing this is because it’s a basic loyalty test for Team Trump. Trump (and company) made the great lie and if you want to be seen as team player than you need to back it too. Gang tactics 101.
