To: Be Careful
The issue with Bondi is her approach to the job of Attorney General.

In my view, the Attorney General job is one where "Show, don't tell" should be the absolute unwavering rule. Don't do pressers until after you have actually taken concrete action. Everything that an AG does should incorporate some element of surprise, other otherwise you give those you are targeting with investigations, charges, etc., the opportunity to dispense with vital evidence for your case.

Bondi's approach, unfortunately, is "Tell, and then try to show." That's dangerous and ineffective as an AG, and unfortunately, when you take that approach you end up making a bunch of promises that you either cannot keep, or it's at least perceived that you've overpromised. That erodes trust very quickly.

I agree with that. She’s quick to say “watch this” and it becomes more a “hold my beer” statement.

That was Jeff Sessions. He didn't even tell President Trump he was going to recuse himself before he did it. Is that the kind of person you want back as A.G.?
