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.
Glad she lost in the end, even tho the family lost 1-2 years with their dog.
Didn't the government literally make people leave their pets during Katrina?
Pete Buttcheek feasted in the mist
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.
So sounds like that tough on crime and drugs policy went well...
If you see the end goal as the eradication of drug users from this earth, very well indeed
Did she have sex with minors or is a dog killer?
Well, dog something.

If I had a nickel for everytime I found out who trumps nominee for AG was from this website I'd have two nickels.
So which TV show was she on?
She was literally a fox news guest host lmao
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.
I wonder how many of Trump lawyers will end up in his cabinet. She's another one.
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.
Why is he saying Violent Criminals, Florida Families, Fentanyl Overdose Deaths like that? These are not names lmao
It's a boomer thing
Boomer Thing, You Mean
Random capitalization is peak Trump-posting. It means they're important! You can tell because of the big letters.
Well at least it's not Alan dershowitz
....at least it isn't Alan Dershowitz so far
I'm fully committed to never figuring out how to use those

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
