Trump names Pam Bondi as new prospective Attorney-General

Next week Donald Trump was due to face his reckoning with the law – sentenced before a Manhattan court for 43 counts of falsifying business records. Instead, that’s on hold – and he’s deciding who should oversee America’s justice system.

After his initial choice of Attorney-General was forced to give up the nomination amidst a sex scandal, Mr Trump has now named a Florida ally as his new prospective top law officer.
