On Wednesday, the Senate voted for Pam Bondi to confirm as the next judicial Secretary and gave the controversy of the Ministry of Justice.

Her nomination affected the Democratic’s scrutiny of whether she would maintain an independent ministry.
“If it is confirmed, I will work to restore confidence and honesty to each of the Ministry of Justice and its elements. Under my watch, the Ministry of Justice’s partial weapon will end,” Bondy confirmed. I mentioned at the hearing.
The Democratic Party, who supervised her nomination, was not convinced.
“President Trump has many times, expecting the Judicial Ministry to seek” retaliation “on behalf of him. With Bondy, the president has finally found a person who has passed his loyalty test, “said Senator Dick Darbin (illness) and a panel Democratic Party member in the floor speech on Monday.

On Tuesday, Derbin asked if he knew “removal, resignation, or re -assignment of career civil servants,” and asked if he was asking for communication between Trump Trump and the current Ministry of Justice leadership.
BONDI is checking many questions about how to deal with PATEL’s abuse, as the Senator is still comparing and examining the nomination of Kash Patel to lead the FBI. 。
“If he was confirmed, and when I was confirmed -I would follow the law if I was the United States Corps, and I would do nothing. No, “she said.
