Pam Bondi, the president-elect’s attorney general nominee, pledged to “restore confidence and integrity” at the Justice Department during her confirmation hearing Wednesday. “My overriding objective will be to return the Department of Justice to its core mission of keeping Americans safe and vigorously prosecuting criminals — and that includes getting back to basics: gangs, drugs, terrorists, cartels, our border and our foreign adversaries,” she told the Senate Judiciary Committee. Ms. Bondi, a former Florida attorney general, said she would make it her mission to “make America safe again” and end “partisanship and weaponization” at the Justice Department. “If confirmed, I will fight every day to restore confidence and integrity to the Department of Justice — and each of its components,” Ms. Bondi said. “The partisanship, the weaponization will be gone. America will have one tier of justice for all.” Watch more at c-span.org
