Pam Bondi was fired by Donald Trump as Attorney General. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche stepped into her place instead, and now, he’s broken his silence on why Bondi was fired. He did so with a comment that is now raising eyebrows.
Pam Bondi has been one of Donald Trump’s most ardent supporters and defenders during his second presidential term. However, last week, she was fired from her job as Attorney General.
On Truth Social, Trump announced the news but focused on praising her for the job she has done.
“Pam Bondi is a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year. Pam did a tremendous job overseeing a massive crackdown in Crime across our Country, with Murders plummeting to their lowest level since 1900,” Trump wrote.
He continued: “We love Pam, and she 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, and our Deputy Attorney General, and a very talented and respected Legal Mind, Todd Blanche, will step in to serve as Acting Attorney General.”
So why did Donald Trump fire Bondi? According to sources who spoke with CNN, he had multiple concerns. He was not satisfied with how she managed the Jeffrey Epstein files and believed she hadn’t pursued enough of his political opponents. She is the second Cabinet member to be dismissed in recent weeks, alongside Kirsti Noem.
