President Donald Trump's decision to pardon roughly 1,500 defendants charged and/or convicted in connection with the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol isn't going over well with one high-profile Senate Republican.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Pam Bondi, Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general, said she accepted the results of the 2020 election that Trump lost to President Joe Biden but suggested during a confirmation hearing Wednesday that she had witnessed significant problems in Pennsylvania when she traveled to state as an advocate for the Republican’s campaign.

Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee Pam Bondi vowed she would remove politics from the Department of Justice during the first day of her confirmation hearing, though her refusal to answer key questions about Trump’s 2020 election loss and his outspoken desire for retribution raised concerns about how she would execute her promise.
Pam Bondi was pressed about the 2020 election and Trump's influence over the Justice Department, while Marco Rubio struck a more measured tone on the Russia-Ukraine war.
