Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general, Pam Bondi, will face sharp questioning from Democratic senators at a confirmation hearing expected to center on concerns Trump will look to use the Justice Department’s powers to seek retribution against his adversaries.

After more than a decade of defending Trump, Pam Bondi is now the president-elect's nominee to be the country's top prosecutor and reform the Department of Justice.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), a member of the Judiciary Committee, joins MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss his questioning of Donald Trump’s Attorney General pick Pam Bondi during her first day of confirmation hearings.
