Pam Bondi has been sworn in as attorney general. She's taking charge of the Justice Department as it braces for upheaval with President Donald Trump looking to exert his will over an agency that's long provoked his ire.

A Tampa-area native, Pam Bondi became the second Floridian and the third woman to hold the office of U.S. attorney general.

The 54-46 vote fell mostly along party lines, with Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pennsylvania) joining Republicans voting in her favor.
