Bondi encountered opposition from Democrats concerned about her ability to remain independent from Trump.

That is rich- after Wray, Brennan, Comey, Mueller, etc. It is absolutely amazing how much the Democrats tell us what they plan to do and/or are guilty of doing themselves. It is so easy to know what they are up to, or what they fear they will be caught doing, simply by watching what they accuse us of attempting.

I’m really hoping there are a lot of scared shitless democrats - particularly the J6 committee that are now being put under the microscope.

Paybacks gonna be a real bitch but oh so sweet.

Would be fun to make Adam schiff squirm. Reject your J6 pardon like you publicly said makes you guilty or testify. Your choice.

Not to quibble.

I believe that Pam will do a good job for the American people. Good choice, I believe.

I'm not so sure. I hope so.

I've watched many YouTubers slamming her for her defense of the FL Red Flag laws. Once the legislature passes a law, isn't it the duty of the AG to defend the state against lawsuits regardless of her personal opinions?

It’s un constitutional bs, So no.

Is that her call or does that have to go to SCOTUS?

If you stop watching them, they don’t get paid.

Not only is it her duty to defend the law of the state as passed (courts determine things are unconstitutional, not attorney's general) but at the time, due to the Parkland shootings, if Republicans wanted to maintain power in Florida, those laws were going to get passed or else.

Sometimes, living to fight the next day is the right call, and in this case it was. Rick Scott just squeaked in for his first term, as did DeSantis, for his first term.

Now things are much more stable, and the Trumpy Republicans have a much tighter grip on the state, but things were touch-and-go there for a while, and Florida looked pretty purple.

She's going to be fine.

Bondi already starting to clean up Biden/Garland shithole. The trash will be taken out in short order.

My motivation in posting the link to the video was to shed some light on what Ms. Bondi thinks. If you watch the video, she is in a meeting, not as Florida's AG, but as President Trump's attorney. The meeting takes place after the Las Vegas shooting (if I'm not mistaken). My concern is her seeming support of Red Flag laws. Not in an official capacity as an attorney general defending a state's laws (constitutional or not), but in an advisory capacity.

I would prefer not to have an AG with those opinions. Watch the video, or one of your choosing and make up your own mind.

I'm so glad to see her off to a great start and working to address problems caused or contributed to by the Biden administration. A list of initial actions can be found at:

Biden's last-minute commutations of the federal death row inmates were a slap in the face to the victims of the killers, but AG Pam Bondi wants to reverse this by using state laws to retry to them to get the killers on state death rows. While I'd like to see it happen from a personal standpoint, it seems too much like double jeopardy to me and that's concerning. I'd rather see these guys spend the rest of their lives in the pen without the possibility of parole, but with the federal system reformed to make it a place they don't want to be.

Here's the article from Fox News (note: originally posted in Trump V thread but copied here since related to AG Bondi):

Bondi seeks to reverse Biden death row commutations, accuses former president of 'undermining' justice system
Bondi wrote that Biden 'subverted the rule of law'
By Andrea Margolis & David Spunt, Fox News

Bondi, who was confirmed Wednesday, sent out a letter about the commutations to Department of Justice (DOJ) employees Wednesday, accusing Biden of "undermin[ing] our justice system and subvert[ing] the rule of law" by granting the commutations.

"The commutations also robbed the victims' families of the justice promised — and fought hard to achieve — by the Department of Justice," Bondi wrote. "The Department of Justice is directed to immediately commence the following actions to achieve justice for the victims' families of the 37 commuted murderers."

Bondi said the DOJ will move to first "explore opportunities to provide a public forum for the victims' families to express how the commutations affected them personally," calling it an "important step" in building trust and achieving accountability.

She is in a meeting with Trump, but is serving as FL AG. She is discussing the law passed after the Parkland FL school shooting and Trump even references the name of the shooter.

I looked at your video. The embedded clip was a School Safety Meeting at the White House on February 22, 2018.

Pam Bondi is there as the Attorney General of Florida, not as Trump's private counsel. The Parkland shooting occurred on February 14, 2018, just 8 days prior.

She is defending Florida's law, she is cognizant of the intense political pressure and public anger surrounding the case, and Trump is agreeing with what she is saying. Trump is equally aware of the politics and anger of the moment. This was not a time to die on a hill.

The appeals courts have already declared the 21 y.o. restriction unconstitutional.

Trump and Bondi are playing a long game here, and while I don't agree with the law, I agree with the strategy. You don't get to set policy if you are out of office. This was a way to preserve political power at a time when the gun grabber's case was very appealing to the public.

She will be fine.

Please don't misunderstand me, I want her to do well. Thank you for the clarification on the meeting in the video.

I appreciate you position, and fundamentally agree about the underlying "right answer".
