    this is a less funny and more harmful choice than gaetz, she’s done way more real damage than Gaetz and will be relatively inoffensive to libs

      i’ve been thinking a lot of the 2nd Trump admin’s tactics will be to do something egregiously stupid like nominate Matt Gaetz, then do something the libs can tolerate that’s actually worse

        Gaetz bowed out himself, I assume because he thought his ethics investigation would be released if he went to the congressional hearings.

          Also supposedly a lot of Republicans just don’t like him on a personal level. Probably not enough to go against Trump, but enough that they could actually ask him questions during a confirmation hearing, which I don’t think he wants. Also he has so many fucking skeletons in his closet that I think withdrawing is just easier.

    Bondi was involved in a custody battle with Hurricane Katrina victims over a St. Bernard she adopted in 2005 after the dog was separated from his family during the storm.

    The family had been trying to find the dog and Bondi refused to return him. She accused the family of neglecting the animal, an allegation they denied.

    The family sued, and the dispute lasted 16 months until the two sides settled before trial. Bondi returned the dog to the family with food and medication.

    Interesting.

      Didn’t the government literally make people leave their pets during Katrina?

      If I had a nickel for every prominent Republican who did something cartoonishly evil relating to pet dogs, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice.

    Like obviously this doesn’t matter, but drug poisoning (overdose) deaths doubled in Florida between 2011 and 2019 while she was AG.

        how the fuck is this “sexist”

        is it sexist to accuse a woman of being a dog fucker? a minor killer? a man can literally do both? not to mention it clearly not being a serious, credulous accusation

        was this removed for being in bad taste and “sexism” just an excuse? like wut

    I wonder how many of Trump lawyers will end up in his cabinet. She’s another one.

    Pam Bondi

    Pamela Bondi (born November 17, 1965) is an American attorney, lobbyist, and politician. A Republican, she served as the 37th Florida attorney general from 2011 to 2019. She is the first woman elected to the office. In 2020, Bondi was one of longtime ally President Donald Trump’s defense lawyers during his first impeachment trial. By 2024 she led the legal arm of the Trump-aligned America First Policy Institute. On November 21, 2024, Trump announced she would be nominated for United States Attorney General.

      Random capitalization is peak Trump-posting. It means they’re important! You can tell because of the big letters.

      You know what I actually looked up her wikipedia page

      She has made guest appearances on Scarborough Country with Joe Scarborough and various other cable news programming on MSNBC and worked for Fox News as a guest host.

      The big wet boy is permanently TV brained.
