Pam Bondi fired as Attorney General

Pam Bondi's tenure as the nation's top law enforcement officer ended after only 14 months following a sudden car-ride dismissal by the President.

Sources suggest Trump was dissatisfied with her inability to successfully prosecute political rivals and the persistent controversy surrounding the Epstein files.

Todd Blanche, a former lawyer for the President, has been installed to steer the Justice Department through the resulting transition.

This firing marks the second major Cabinet removal during Trump's second term, following the ouster of Kristi Noem.
