The president-elect of the United States, Donald Trump, declared the former attorney general of Florida, Pam Bondi, as the “successor” of Matt Gaetz, who will occupy the position of “Secretary of Justice” in his presidential cabinet, last Thursday, November 21.
This decision was made after Gaetz resigned from his position for allegedly being linked to investigations, which deal with the sexual abuse of minors, violating human trafficking laws, as well as drug use.
«Pam was a prosecutor for almost 20 years. “She was very tough on violent criminals and made the streets safe for Florida families,” commented the next president on his social network, Truth Social.
The New York magnate recalled that, as the first woman to serve as Florida attorney general, a position she held between 2011 and 2019, Bondi “worked to combat the trafficking of lethal drugs and reduce the tragedy of drug overdose deaths.” fentanyl, which have devastated countless families” across the United States.
«He did such an incredible job that I asked him to serve on our Commission on Drug Abuse and Opioids during my first term (2017-2019). “We saved many lives!” Trump added.
Trump emphasized that: “For too long,” the Justice Department has been used against him or other Republicans, something he stressed he will stop.
“Pam will refocus the Department of Justice on its purpose of fighting crime and making America safe again. I have known Pam for many years. “She is intelligent and tough,” he said of his new choice, about whom he assured that “she will do an excellent job as attorney general.”
At the same time, he faced a second investigation, which was open until last week, in the House of Representatives Ethics Committee. However, those investigations were closed when she resigned from her position last week, after being nominated by Trump, as the commission lost its jurisdiction over the legislator.
