In a swift shift of events, President Trump has tapped former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi for the position of Attorney General, succeeding the recently withdrawn nominee Matt Gaetz. This unexpected announcement came mere hours after Gaetz removed himself from consideration, citing a need to focus on his ongoing investigation. Bondi, a staunch Trump ally, brings a wealth of experience to the role, having served as Florida’s chief legal officer for eight years. Her appointment marks a significant departure from Gaetz’s controversial background and aligns with Trump’s efforts to strengthen his legal team ahead of potential legal challenges.

What Trump’s Revenge Agenda Is Hiding
The long list of individuals targeted by Trump in recent weeks includes those who have investigated him or been critical of him, such as former FBI Director James Comey and Justice Department official Bruce Ohr. But the purge goes beyond personal vendettas.

Manhattan D.A. Concedes Trump Can’t Be Sentenced—but It’s Not Over Yet
Despite the Manhattan District Attorney’s recognition that former President Donald Trump cannot be criminally charged concerning hush money payments made during his 2016 campaign, the legal implications of the investigation linger.

Democrats Should Let Trump Be Trump
The Democrats may believe that by hindering Trump or any of his accomplishments they will get one over on the almost half of America that voted for him and that by doing so they will increase their chances in the midterm elections. However, if the Democrats are too adversarial, it will increase the likelihood that Trump will be elected for a second term. That is not good for the country. Trump was elected because of the elitist attitudes of those in power who are Democrats. Now, if the Democrats win in 2018 and 2020 it will only be because they ran on returning power to the people. It will not be because they tried to obstruct and control the people’s power.

Biden should order background checks of Trump’s Cabinet picks
President-elect Biden should order background checks on every potential Cabinet member proposed by former President Trump to weed out any unqualified or dangerous picks. This is especially important in light of Trump’s history of appointing controversial and unqualified individuals to high-level positions.
A thorough background check would include a review of the individual’s criminal history, financial records, and any potential conflicts of interest. It would also include a review of the individual’s experience and qualifications for the position they are being considered for.
By ordering background checks on Trump’s Cabinet picks, Biden would be taking a prudent step to ensure that only the most qualified and ethical individuals are appointed to positions of power.
