Pam Bondi, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general, went viral during her Senate confirmation hearing with Louisiana GOP Sen. John Kennedy.
Kennedy asked about Michael Avenatti, a former critic of Trump, and Bondi responded, “Prison, senator,” with a smile.
He then asked about disgraced entrepreneur Sam Bankman-Fried, and Bondi answered, “Jail.” Kennedy criticized the Justice Department’s prosecution of Trump, arguing it had delegitimized the criminal justice system.
Bondi stressed the importance of removing politics from the Department of Justice. She called for a fair and unbiased approach, asserting that politics had to be removed from the system.
