Over her short tenure as Trump's attorney general, Pam Bondi terrorized LGBTQ+ Americans
"Under Bondi's leadership, the Justice Department subpoenaed hospitals and clinics providing gender-affirming care to minors, seeking sensitive patient information that critics warned could undermine medical privacy and potentially facilitate the creation of a registry of transgender Americans."
"That pressure campaign had tangible consequences. Some health systems, including the University of Michigan, scaled back or halted gender-affirming care for minors, disrupting treatment for patients and families and raising concerns among medical professionals about continuity of care."
"Bondi also aligned the Justice Department with broader efforts by the Trump administration to rewrite the record on the January 6, 2021, insurrection and around American history and civil rights."
