President-elect Donald Trump said at the 2023 Conservative Political Action Conference, “I am your warrior, I am your justice, and for those who have been wronged and betrayed, I am your retribution.” Well, as the old saying goes, people are policy, and Trump’s recent picks of populist, pro-consumer watchdogs who believe in equality under the law to serve at the Justice Department are proving that he meant every word of what he said then.
On Dec. 4, Trump nominated Gail Slater, an Oxford-trained attorney, to serve as the leader of the DOJ’s Antitrust Division. Two weeks earlier, he chose Pam Bondi, a former Florida attorney general, for U.S. attorney general.
