Washington: America's newly elected President Donald Trump has now nominated former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondy for the post of Attorney General of America after questions were raised on Matt Gaetz. Let us tell you that Trump had earlier nominated former MP Matt Gaetz for this, but the Democrats created an uproar by accusing him of being involved in a sex scandal. In such a situation, it seemed difficult for him to be selected for this post. After this, Matt himself announced his withdrawal from the nomination process for this post on Thursday.
After Matt's announcement, Donald Trump has nominated former Attorney General of Florida Pam Bondi. “I am extremely proud to nominate former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as the next Attorney General of the United States,” Trump said in a statement. He said Bondi served as a prosecutor for nearly 20 years. During that time he “took a tough stance towards criminals”. Also made Florida a safe place for people. Trump alleged that the Justice Department was used as a weapon against him and other members of the Republican Party. “No more of all this,” said the President-elect.
Bondy is trusted by Trump
59-year-old Bondi is a great confidant of Trump. He recently helped lead the legal arm of the America First Policy Institute, a right-wing think tank. Staff at this think tank have worked closely with Trump's campaign to help shape policy for the incoming administration. In this respect, Bondi's resume is different from Gaetz's. Former Florida federal prosecutor David Weinstein said, “Bondi is certainly qualified for this position.” He spent his life litigating cases. (Reuters)
