President-elect Donald Trump's pick for attorney general, Pam Bondi, is currently facing the Senate Judiciary Committee in a confirmation hearing. Bondi was selected by Trump in late November after a previous candidate withdrew from consideration.
The hearing, which began at 9:30 a.m., involves questioning from both Republican and Democrat members of the committee. Chair Chuck Grassley expressed his hope for a fair and timely process, emphasizing the need to move forward efficiently.
