AG Pam Bondi to Start ‘Weaponization Working Group’ to Investigate Trump Prosecution

Brett T. | 8:30 PM on February 05, 2025

As Twitchy reported, Pam Bondi was confirmed by the Senate as Attorney General on Tuesday, and she was sworn in by Justice Clarence Thomas on Wednesday morning. Bondi has hit the ground running and has already named a number of initiatives to reform the Department of Justice. For one, she is directing the Justice Department to establish a "Weaponization Working Group" to look into the sort of lawfare that dogged President Trump during the campaign.

NEW: @CBSNews has learned AG Pam Bondi will sign memos directing the DOJ to start a "Weaponization Working Group" that will review the Trump prosecutions in NY by Alvin Bragg and Letitia James, and Jack Smith in FL and DC. Bondi will also end the moratorium on federal executions.

Brooke Singman reports for Fox News:

Bondi is set to establish the "Weaponization Working Group," which will review the activities of all law enforcement agencies over the past four years to identify instances of "politicized justice."
The working group’s first reviews will include prosecutions against Trump led by former Special Counsel Jack Smith; Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg; and New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought the civil fraud case against Trump and his family.
The working group will also review any potential prosecutorial abuse regarding Jan. 6, 2021; the FBI’s targeting of Catholic Americans; the Justice Department’s targeting of parents at school board meetings; and abuses of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances, or FACE, Act.

Excellent. Attorney General Merrick Garland never disbanded his special task force on parents at school board meetings and vigorously used the FACT Act to put elderly women in prison for 11 years for praying outside an abortion clinic. But the best part will be seeing Alvin Bragg and Letitia James squirming.
