President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for Attorney General, Pam Bondi, has met with Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), who is expected to chair the Senate Judiciary Committee. This meeting marks a significant step in the confirmation process for Bondi, the former Attorney General of Florida.
Bondi's nomination follows the withdrawal of Trump's initial pick, Rep. Matt Gaetz, amid allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use. Bondi, a longtime Trump ally, served as Florida's Attorney General from 2011 to 2019 and was part of Trump's defense team during his first impeachment trial.
