Today's top news: Pam Bondi, a former Florida attorney general and prosecutor for nearly 20 years, is Trump’s new pick for U.S. attorney general. Trump specifically hailed Bondi as a force against the weaponization of the federal government against conservatives. Trump scored a “decisive win” today in a New York courtroom. Judge Juan Merchan won’t hold a sentencing hearing next week as planned. Instead, today the embattled judge granted the Trump legal team’s request to file a motion to dismiss the case. Senator Mike Rounds, a Republican from South Dakota, introduced a bill that would eliminate the U.S. Department of Education. It’s called the Returning Education to Our States Act, and it could serve as the legislative vehicle to carry out Trump’s promise.
