Attorney General of the United States
Confirmed as the 87th Attorney General on February 5, 2025. Under her leadership the Justice Department indicted former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James on politically motivated charges — both cases were dismissed by a federal judge. Obstructed release of Epstein investigation files by missing court-ordered deadlines, re-redacting previously public documents, and withholding FBI memos, prompting a bipartisan House Oversight Committee subpoena (24-19 vote including five Republicans). Oversaw the firing of career prosecutors who worked on Capitol riot and Trump investigation cases. The DOJ Civil Rights Division experienced a roughly 70% exodus of career staff. Democratic Rep. Summer Lee introduced articles of impeachment accusing Bondi of turning the DOJ into a "personal law firm" for the president.
