Just when the liberals over at MSNBC thought they could breathe a sigh of relief following Matt Gaetz’s sudden withdrawal as U.S. attorney general, the news of President-elect Donald Trump‘s new AG pick has them up in arms once again.
During an episode of “The Ari Melber Show” on Thursday, Jason Johnson, an associate professor of politics and journalism at Morgan State University, warned that Trump’s new pick, former Florida attorney general Pam Bondi, is both “effective” and “dangerous.”
“Pam Bondi is exactly what I was saying in the last segment that we should all fear because she’s competent,” Johnson said.
“We may not agree with her ideologically, but she actually knows how to do this job. So if anyone on the Democratic side or anyone who cared about liberty or justice was thinking, well, maybe Matt Gaetz will screw this up and that’ll give us some time.”
“She knows what she’s doing about immigration. Remember, Florida is one of those states that’s been very aggressive about migrants and deportation and moving people to different states and everything else like that,” Johnson said.
Johnson recalled how Bondi fiercely supported Gov. Ron DeSantis’s effort to purge state-funded schools of “woke” curriculum, warning that her stance could be an omen of what’s to come.
“Florida has enacted all sorts of rules and laws to curtail students and what they can do on campuses and finding legal justifications for manipulating education money,’ Johnson added.
“She is a dangerous and effective pick, and that’s, frankly, worse than what we would have got with Matt Gaetz, even with the deplorable moral background that he has,” Johnson said.
President-elect Trump praised Bondi as an effective prosecutor who will “refocus” the Justice Department away from the weaponization of political opponents.
Trump also noted Bondi’s immaculate track record:
I am proud to announce former Attorney General of the Great State of Florida, Pam Bondi, as our next Attorney General of the United States.
Pam was a prosecutor for nearly 20 years, where she was very tough on Violent Criminals, and made the streets safe for Florida Families.
Then, as Florida’s first female Attorney General, she worked to stop the trafficking of deadly drugs, and reduce the tragedy of Fentanyl Overdose Deaths, which have destroyed many families across our Country.
She did such an incredible job, that I asked her to serve on our Opioid and Drug Abuse Commission during my first Term — We saved many lives!
For too long, the partisan Department of Justice has been weaponized against me and other Republicans – Not anymore.
Pam will refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fighting Crime, and Making America Safe Again. I have known Pam for many years — She is smart and tough, and is an AMERICA FIRST Fighter, who will do a terrific job as Attorney General!”
