American media outlets have reported that US President Donald Trump has abruptly fired Attorney General Pam Bondi. The unexpected dismissal was personally communicated to her during a private meeting in the Oval Office just before a major presidential speech.
Sources indicate that the high-profile termination stems from Trump's growing dissatisfaction with Bondi's performance handling deeply sensitive legal matters. Key frustrations included her slow approach to prosecuting political critics and her controversial management of document releases related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Despite the firing, Trump referred to Bondi as a loyal friend and great patriot in a social media statement. Former legal counsel Todd Blanche will serve as the acting head of the Justice Department while Bondi prepares for upcoming congressional hearings.
