Pam Bondi is out, as President Donald Trump announced Thursday that she’ll be leaving her position. This comes amid reports that the president was quite frustrated with how she handled some of his major priorities.
According to NBC News, Trump shared in a Truth Social post that Bondi will be “transitioning to a much needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future.” He added that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche would step in as the acting attorney general. However, a senior administration official and another source familiar with the situation confirmed that Bondi was actually fired from the role.
