Pam Bondi has been on the verge of being fired for months. Donald Trump is very sad that Bondi has not done more to prosecute those he considers political enemies.
As Kristi Noem hit the bricks, Bondi appeared to be the next member of the administration to receive the axe, and her time was up Thursday.

Trump posted on Truth Social:
Pam Bondi is a great American patriot and loyal friend, who has faithfully served as Attorney General for the past year. Pam has done a tremendous job overseeing a massive crackdown on crime across our country, with murders dropping to their lowest level since 1900. We love Pam, and she will be transitioning to a very necessary and important new job in the private sector, which will be announced in the near future, and our Deputy Attorney General and a very talented and respected legal scholar, Todd Blanche, will step in to serve as Acting Attorney General. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Bondi was one of my top five picks as most likely to leave this administration before the end of the year. My original list included Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi, RFK Jr., Tulis Gabbard and Pete Hegseth.
