Bondi slams judicial 'activism' in Senate hearing
Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday issued a fiery defense of her record at the Department of Justice during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, asserting that her agency had never ignored a court order, despite what she deemed unprecedented "activism" from the bench.
"My attorneys have done incredible work advancing President Trump's agenda and protecting the executive branch from judicial overreach," she said. "We've been sued more than 400 times. Since January 20, judges have issued more than 90 temporary restraining orders against us, more than the previous several administrations combined."
"Despite the unprecedented degree of activism we've seen from the lower courts. We have never ignored a court order, and why would we have secured a historic 22 victories at the Supreme Court alone, with more to come," she added.
