When Pam Bondi was sworn in as attorney general last week, she made a promise to President Donald Trump: “I am truly honored that you have asked me to take on this role, and I will make you proud, and I will make this country proud.”

In the 10 days since, Bondi has quickly demonstrated her intention to make good on that pledge — and has become one of the most vocal enforcers of Trump’s political agenda. After taking office, she immediately issued a number of directives, including a commitment that the Department of Justice (DOJ) will “use all available criminal statutes to combat the flood of illegal immigration.” She also issued a memo to employees in the Justice Department emphasizing that expectations “include not only aggressively enforcing civil and criminal laws enacted by Congress, but also vigorously defending presidential policies and actions against legal challenges on behalf of the United States.”
