Soon after Trump's announcement, Bondi expressed excitement about her job change and vowed to continue fighting for Trump and his administration. In a surprising turn of events, US President Donald Trump fired his 'loyal friend' and 'patriot' Pam Bondi, Attorney General, reportedly over the handling of the Epstein Files controversy. On Thursday afternoon, Trump announced her exit, and her deputy, Todd Blanche, replaces her as the acting attorney general until a permanent replacement is chosen. Taking to his Truth Social Platform, Trump said Bondi will be transitioning to an important job in the private sector. "Pam Bondi is a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year," Trump said in a Truth Social post.
