Summary
Pam Bondi, Trump’s attorney general nominee, hinted at the existence of an “enemies list” during her confirmation hearing.
When questioned by Senators Hirono and Whitehouse, Bondi avoided disavowing the list or denying potential targeting of individuals like Jack Smith, Liz Cheney, and Merrick Garland.
She defended Trump’s FBI pick, Kash Patel, who previously alluded to such a list in his book, Government Gangsters.
Critics fear the Justice Department could be weaponized against political opponents under Bondi and Trump’s leadership.
And no one in DC will do anything about it.
They’ll get good, expensive attorneys to defend themselves and they’ll believe until the last second that that will be enough.
