Attorney General Pam Bondi, in some of her first moves on the job, is shifting the Justice Department’s national security priorities away from initiatives that have been a source of irritation for President Donald Trump and his allies.

Pam Bondi's confirmation as U.S. attorney general comes at a time when the Justice Department and FBI are under close scrutiny by Democrats and Republicans alike.

A Tampa-area native, Pam Bondi became the second Floridian and the third woman to hold the office of U.S. attorney general.
