Public trust within the Justice Department resembles a reservoir, cultivated over many years but easily compromised. Attorney General Pam Bondi's brief tenure has heightened concerns, leading to distrust from both liberal and conservative sides. Her claims regarding election fraud in the 2020 election and predictions about winning Pennsylvania have drawn significant criticism. Although Bondi possesses extensive legal experience, her actions and statements have raised serious questions about her credibility and effectiveness, thereby putting the integrity of the institution at risk.
Bondi's natural political antagonists doubted her credibility. After the 2020 election, Bondi falsely proclaimed that "we won Pennsylvania ... we are thrilled to have won Pennsylvania," despite Trump's loss by over 80,000 votes.
Liberals distrusted Bondi all along. She wasn't quite as outrageous a selection for AG as Matt Gaetz, who never made it to the confirmation stage; at least Bondi had been a prosecutor for over 20 years.
