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.

    Mmmhmm. Ok.

    But you assume I’m saying “don’t worry about it”. I’m clearly not. I’m saying don’t use click-bait headlines that are factually inaccurate so that we can worry about the RIGHT things. Ie that there almost certainly will be a list AND that Bondi will lie through her teeth to hide that fact. If we do this then we can better understand how to expose said list AND the lies.
