Pam Bondi has her work cut out for her. She is leading a Department of Justice in which only two in 10 people currently have high confidence. Many believe the department has been over-politicized for the last four years, and they are right to be upset.
For example, the DOJ targeted the fundraising practices of Elon Musk, the Trump campaign’s top financial backer, while ignoring the seemingly identical practices used by former first lady Michelle Obama. The Justice Department also directed law enforcement to investigate critics of school board members, who were accused of “domestic terrorism” merely for exercising their First Amendment right to free speech against the teaching of politically sensitive topics such as critical race theory and gender identity issues.
