President Donald Trump confirmed on Truth Social that Pam Bondi is out as attorney general:
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. 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. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump’s post came minutes after Peter Doocy at Fox News broadcast the contents of a phone call he had with Trump:
Okay, I just got off the phone with President Trump. We have a big scoop. Pam Bondi will soon leave her job as the attorney general. She is going to get a different job within the administration. It doesn’t sound like there is any bad blood between her and President Trump. But it does seem like they want her to go and do something else. And in an interim role, she will be replaced by Todd Blanche, who is currently her deputy at the Justice Department, so it doesn’t sound like Blanche is being elevated long term to the attorney general, there might be somebody else that the President wants to go in there. But it — President Trump soon will announce to the entire world that it is the end of Pam Bondi time as the attorney general. He still thinks that she is a great person and that she did a good job. And he still wants her in the fold because she will still be an important part of the administration. He tells me. But no longer as the top law enforcement officer of the United States. That, at least for a little while, is going to be Todd Blanche.
I cannot find any information regarding why Trump let go of Bondi.
Sources told Fox News that Bondi met with Trump before his Wednesday night address about Iran, when he told her about his decision.
Supposedly, Bondi was already on the plane back to Florida by the time Trump started his address.
Derek Hunter isn’t wrong with these posts. I wonder if FBI Director Kash Patel will be next.
