This market will resolve according to the first individual Donald Trump announces as his pick to be United States Attorney General. An announcement from Donald Trump or the Trump administration stating their intent to nominate a specific individual for United States Attorney General will suffice to resolve this market, regardless of whether a formal nomination actually occurs. Qualifying announcements must explicitly present the relevant individual as the nominee or future nominee for Attorney General. Announcements of acting or interim appointments, or announcements which merely reveal potential candidates, will not qualify. Media reports, speculation, or other unofficial information will not qualify. A formal presidential nomination of an individual to be United States Attorney General will also suffice to resolve this market. Formal nominations are defined as the submission of a nomination message to the U.S. Senate. If Donald Trump does not announce his pick for the next United States Attorney General by June 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "No announcement by June 30". The resolution source for this market will be official information from Donald Trump and the Trump Administration; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.President Trump's April 2 dismissal of Attorney General Pam Bondi, citing dissatisfaction with her oversight including the DOJ's handling of Epstein files, led to Todd Blanche's appointment as acting Attorney General, with the former defense lawyer now overseeing the department. Reports of Trump privately discussing EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin as Bondi's permanent replacement have propelled Zeldin to trader consensus frontrunner status, reflecting his loyalty, prosecutorial background, and recent White House meetings without firm denials. Blanche trails after expressing openness to the permanent role, while no announcement by June 30 captures delay risks amid Senate confirmation hurdles and procedural timelines under the Vacancies Reform Act allowing extended acting service.
