President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he is replacing Pam Bondi as U.S. attorney general.
"Pam Bondi is a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year," he wrote on Truth Social. He added that she would "be transitioning to a much needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future," and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche would take over as acting attorney general.
