Part 2/9:
During the hearings, Bondi was challenged by Senator Richard Blumenthal, who pressed her on whether she could reject requests from President Trump that could be deemed unethical or illegal. Bondi’s response was striking; she firmly asserted her commitment to speak the truth and not merely cater to the whims of the administration in order to secure confirmation. Her position reflects a broader theme among nominees: with a Republican majority in the Senate, they feel emboldened to make definitive claims without fear of significant repercussions.
