Bondi was confirmed by the U.S. Senate Tuesday evening 54-46, with Democratic Senator John Fetterman voting in her favor.
"Congratulations to our wonderful and very talented United States Attorney General, Pam Bondi, who gets sworn in today amid tremendous support, and the respect of ALL! I know Pam well, it was an honor to appoint her, and my prediction is that she will go down as one of the best and most consequential Attorney Generals in the history of our Country. Congratulations Pam, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" Trump posted on Truth Social after the vote.
