Following her firing, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced her departure on X, framing the transition on favorable terms.
Bondi stated she would spend the next month transitioning to Todd Blanche before moving to a private sector role while continuing to support President Donald Trump.
She claimed leading Trump's efforts to enhance safety and security was "the honor of a lifetime," and the "most consequential first year," for the Justice Department in American history. Bondi cited achievements including the lowest murder rate in 125 years, first-ever Antifa terrorism convictions, disrupted gangs, custody of 90 cartel figures, and 24 favorable Supreme Court rulings.
Trump had reportedly been frustrated with Bondi for months over her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case review. Some reports indicate Trump's inner circle suspected Bondi of alerting Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) that the Justice Department planned to release embarrassing files on him.
