Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, nominated as head of Donald Trump’s Justice Department, clashed with Sen. Adam Schiff during her Senate Judiciary confirmation hearing. Schiff pressed Bondi on opposing potential pardons for January 6 offenders and questioned her ability to manage hundreds of cases, prompting Bondi to fire back by referencing Schiff’s congressional censure for “reckless comments.”
The exchange escalated when Schiff raised a GOP-led investigation into Liz Cheney’s alleged witness communications. Bondi dismissed it as hypothetical, pivoting to criticize California’s high crime rates as her focus if confirmed.
Bondi has also advocated for releasing Jeffrey Epstein’s client list, aligning with Trump’s stated support for more transparency regarding Epstein’s files.
