Bondi struggled to prosecute Trump foes. But will a new attorney general make a difference?

AI Summary

long article 5 min

Pam Bondi's tenure as US Attorney General has ended after she struggled to prosecute political opponents of President Trump. Despite Bondi's efforts, judges, grand jurors, and even the Justice Department workforce resisted attempts to establish criminal conduct against Trump's adversaries. The article suggests that a new attorney general will likely face similar challenges in fulfilling Trump's demands for political prosecutions due to a skeptical court system and a lack of evidence. Experts suggest that the core issue is the president's insistence on prosecutions without valid legal grounds. Bondi is the latest in a line of Trump's attorney generals who have been pressured to meet the president's demands for loyalty and retribution.
