She initially pledged to release damaging documents, disregarding the Justice Department’s established policy against disclosing internal investigative files.

Bondi's decisions have not only drawn criticism but also inadvertently provided political cover for Donald Trump, complicating her position further as she struggles to navigate the fallout from her earlier promises.
