The Senate on Monday evening voted 52-46 to invoke cloture on Pam Bondi’s Attorney General nomination.
The final Senate floor vote to confirm Pam Bondi could come as early as Wednesday.
Pam Bondi vowed to keep politics out of the DOJ if confirmed during as she sat before the Senate Judiciary Committee last month.
“Politics has to be taken out of this system,” Pam Bondi told Senators. “This department has been weaponized for years and years and years, and it has to stop,”
Fox News reported:
President Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee, Pam Bondi, will now move on to a final Senate floor vote for confirmation after senators voted to invoke cloture and limit the remaining floor debate.
Bondi, the former Florida attorney general who also spent 18 years as a prosecutor in Hillsborough County, earned praise this month for her composure during her confirmation hearing, which stretched for nearly six hours. She was also praised for her ability to deftly navigate thorny and politically tricky topics and lines of questioning from some would-be detractors.
By a vote of 52-46, the Senate invoked cloture on the nomination on Monday night, defeating the legislative filibuster.
Last month Pam Bondi faced questions from senators on during her confirmation hearing.
Bondi, Florida’s former Attorney General, held her own as wicked Democrat Senators attacked her.
California’s toxic Democrat Senator Alex Padilla (he was never even elected to office) got wrecked after he disrespected Pam Bondi.
“I’m not going to be bullied by you,” Pam Bondi said as Alex Padilla spoke to her in a condescending tone.
Bondi continued, “Senator, I’m here to answer your questions. I’m not here to do your homework and study for you.”
