It's been roughly 60 days since Pamela Bondi stepped up as attorney general under President Trump, and the pro-gun community is talking.
For those of us who live and breathe the Second Amendment, a Trump appointee like Bondi comes with big expectations. Two months in, though, the word on platforms like X and in gun circles is a mixed bag. Is she the 2A defender we've been waiting for, or is she falling short?
The good: Bondi's pro-gun moves
Bondi's made some moves that have gun folks nodding in approval. In February, she fired the ATF's General Counsel, Pamela Hicks, with a sharp statement: "These people were targeting gun owners. Not going to happen under this administration."
That's a solid hit against an agency we all see as overreaching.

Late breaking from JPFO - "U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi is leading a new Justice Department effort to uphold and enforce gun rights as outlined in the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. According to a memo obtained by Reuters, Bondi plans to use legal action and government policies to resist attempts that aim to curtail gun rights."
