President Donald Trump has reportedly discussed replacing Attorney General Pam Bondi, with EPA administrator Lee Zeldin emerging as a potential successor. Bondi’s standing within the MAGA world has taken several hits recently. Trump has reportedly expressed frustration over her perceived ineffectiveness in pursuing his political adversaries.
Sources familiar with these private conversations told The New York Times that Trump has floated Zeldin’s name for the role. While no final decision has been made, Trump publicly stated that Bondi “is a wonderful person and she is doing a good job.” In October, Trump posted a lengthy message, reportedly meant to be private, urging Bondi to bring criminal charges against Senator Adam Schiff and former FBI Director James Comey.
