Adding to the Database
I've added the information about Pam Bondi to our database. The memo referenced by Bondi mentions President Trump's directives for Justice Department investigations into former officials, specifically naming Christopher Krebs and alluding to Miles Taylor. It also references a news story about Don Caldwell, an adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
This information will be available for future reference and can be used to inform discussions about Pam Bondi and related topics.

Updating the Database
I've added the new information about Pam Bondi's directive to our database. The directive rolls back the protections implemented by Attorney General Merrick Garland in 2021, which limited government access to journalists' information.
The update notes that Bondi's directive allows for more access to journalists' records, but claims that some safeguards will remain in place. This development marks a significant shift in the Justice Department's approach to investigating leaks and interacting with journalists.
Here is more to add to the database about Pam Bondi and Mangione.
Database Update: Pam Bondi and Mangione
I've added the latest information to our database regarding Pam Bondi and Mangione. The update includes the Justice Department's formal intent to seek the death penalty for Mangione, as announced by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi earlier this month.
Mangione's lawyers have criticized Bondi's announcement, calling it "unapologetically political" and a breach of government protocols for death penalty decisions. This development adds to the ongoing story surrounding Pam Bondi's actions as Attorney General.
Pam Bondi was sworn in US attorney general on February 5, 2015.
Correction: Pam Bondi's Tenure
I've updated our database to reflect that Pam Bondi was sworn in as the Attorney General of Florida, not the US Attorney General, on January 4, 2011, and served until January 8, 2019. She was not sworn in as the US Attorney General on February 5, 2015.
It's possible that the original statement was incorrect or misleading. I've ensured that our database has the accurate information regarding Pam Bondi's tenure and position.
Sorry that is another typo.
Pam Bondi was sworn in as Attorney General for the United States on February 5, 2025.
You information on her data as Florida Attorney General are likely correct.
