In this YouTube video, Legal AF host Michael Popok breaks down Donald Trump's nomination of Pam Bondi for Attorney General mere hours after his first choice, alleged sex offender Matt Gaetz, withdrew his name from nomination. If Bondi’s name sounds familiar, it’s because she has been in the Trump legal orbit for years; going back to her role in helping make an investigation into Trump University disappear as Florida Attorney General, after she accepted a $25,000 donation from the now defunct Trump real estate school scam.
Bondi then went on to work for Trump in various other legal capacities, including being part of his legal team during his first impeachment, and filing amicus briefs on behalf of his baseless fraud claims about the 2020 election. While representing Trump during his impeachment, Bondi simultaneously lobbied for foreign nations such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar, raising serious ethical concerns.
With Trump out of power, Bondi, like so many other members of his administration, became part of the fake think tank, the America First Policy Institute, which was founded Stephen Miller, the architect of so many of Trump’s fascist policies, including family separation. Bondi’s nomination reflects Trump’s pattern of appointing loyalists to key positions to ensure personal loyalty and control.
Unlike Democratic presidents, who never speak to their A.G.’s in order to maintain their independence, Popok expects Bondi to be a regular fixture at the White House, as Trump transforms the wheels of justice in the United States into his own personal legal front.

Is there no one who isn’t a sexual predator or who hasn’t committed a crime that Trump can nominate for his cabinet? Aren’t we as Americans supposed to be getting the best?! Is this the best Donald Trump has? Sad!
This is beyond sad because it is a massive scandal. A scandal because the very people who are to protect us from people like this are the Republican Party, the majority party in the House of Representatives who sit there in committee like bumps on a log immune to pleas from their Democratic Party Co- congresspeople to do something, ANYTHING, to correct their course of action and..... do....... absolutely....... nothing. I cannot conceive of a greater crime against the people of this nation than the traitorous behavior of people like Mike Johnson, Jim Jordan, and the rest who have sold their souls and this nation to Donald Trump.
he is appointing the very best....the very best criminals, con-artists and sex offenders he can find.
Trump traded one POS for another...
POS's flock together
Pam Bondi also ensured that Epstein did not face consequences
Geez, that's a shocker!
Bondi is another Corrupt, Big Lie Provacatuer and MAGA 'Rump kisser 100%...
DO NOT LET UP PRO-DEMOCRACY FORCES! PUSHBACK ON EVERY UNFIT SELECTION CRIMINAL TRAITOR RAPIST 'RUMP NOMINATES!!!
I admire how MeidasTouch is still going strong (post-election), bringing us the truth about these dirty dogs that they want to try and keep covered up like we're stupid. Appreciate you all keeping us informed.
They are all crooks. All of them.
Addendum: We know they are. These are not assumptions. Their ethical and illegitimate behavior is on record. Don't let anyone try to tell you it is some kind of Lib'rul guesswork. They really are crooked.
Every single one of them is despicably vile.
She's just another Corrupt MAGA Money grubbing Traitor, LIAR.
He’s doing exactly what he said. Too bad he lied about the war with Russia & Ukraine
First Promise broken! Stop the Ukraine war within 24 hours as President Elect! I notice all these Project 2025 people! But he knows no one associated with it.
And she's all in with $¢ientology!
Oh my God, seriously? Well, that figures — another cult.
Pam Bondi's brother is the attorney who defends Musk from SEC violations. She is also a racist bigot.
She should not be eligible!
I wish I could afford to give more. I have told friends and family about MTN and several have subscribed. I will continue to promote the network. Blessings to you all

Pam Bondi also sued to get the ACA shut down, and insurance companies should be able to drop people with preexisting conditions. She is one very evil woman.
Can I say she's garbage?
Go right ahead and shout it out!

Jack Smith to the Felon Trump,
👉🏼 Dude! ” your political garb, shall not cover you in this court!”
(Me) Where are you are naked before “the rule of law,” for your misdeeds, and your dramatic renderings!!
MAGA is breaking every American value, Law and ideal simply out of spite.
Pam Bondi is in Rump's good graces, until she isn't.
Wow another great choice for AG. Easily bribed to do Trump's bidding. I guess the picks will keep going until he gets to Aileen Cannon his real choice. No accountability ever for the orange buffoon.
Do as I say not as I do.
The way all these tRUMP sycophants talk, you'd think they're all wearing Teflon suits.
Her qualifications are long bleached blond hair parted in the middle, likes tight sweaters, wears a conspicuous cross. She's hot like his daughter. Did I mess any other qualifications?
Why, I wonder, didn't Trump choose he in the first place instead of the scandal-ridden Gaetz? He will get the same thing he wanted from Gaetz, which is fealty to the nth degree, but without the protracted confirmation fight! Trump will, in contrast to a democrat president, be in complete charge of the DOJ with this bought-and-paid-for pick, and that's priceless to a criminal of his caliber! I wonder what thug he'll appoint as FBI Director?
It's hard to believe that this type of corruption is allowed to be confirmed and put into place whenbits desteuction is blatantly obviouus. Is tgere no recourse? What a flipping joke!
I'm a totally confused Canadian 😕! A man who has been twice impeached, been charged with 34 felony counts, convicted of being a rapist, and a hell of a lot more crap attributed to him.. just HOW has he been ALLOWED to run for president? That's totally f'n nuts!
The whole group of Trump nominees is not only unqualified, dishonest, etc., but incestuous! Someone needs to find a way to control this situation and protect the U.S. and its citizens, ideally just keeping Trump out of office!
Listening to Michael Popok. He just played Pam Bondi’s speech in 2016. What a bunch of crap!!!
Gaetz was never meant to be AG. With the Ethics Committee report about to come out, Gaetz needed a way out and Trump gave it to him. All Gaetz needed was a plausible reason to give up his congressional seat and poof, he's nominated for AG. His bowing out because he doesn't want to cause a commotion is bs. If it were a legit offer, he wouldn't care what anyone said.
Oh my it seems crime is a prerequisite for the white house. Like seriously the President elect should also be vetted by FBI or he can't be sworn in!
I believe Bondi was Trump's pick for AG all along. He only chose Gaetz to give him an "excuse" to resign, thus ending the ongoing Congressional inquiry into his sick conduct. Trump knew that Gaetz was radioactive and would never be able to get confirmed, so he gave him an out by nominating him.
Does Trump know anyone who isn't crooked?
An Open Letter to Pam Bondi: Trump’s Nominee for Attorney General

Just amazing what $25K can buy!
Someone should create an easy stinging comment, something like: "How do multiple bankruptcies happen to one "company"? Easy, hire only "yes men" to lie, cheat, die or go to jail & that demand guarantees multiple bankruptcies. Why? Clear as a bell, CEO is too afraid & insecure that someone else has a better idea or tells the truth" Problem is this time it's our country.
Since the SCOTUS is 67% locked in for Trump, he can do any damn thing he wants without fear of reprisal! He WILL weaponize the DOJ against his enemies, real or perceived, and protect himself and his rich cronies while they plunder the treasury. Bondi is the perfect tool for criminal conspiracies....
