President Donald Trump informed Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday night that she would be stepping down, according to people familiar with the matter.
The conversation reportedly took place in the Oval Office shortly before Trump delivered a televised address on the ongoing conflict in Iran. By the time he finished speaking, Bondi’s tenure as the nation’s top law enforcement official had effectively come to an end, even though the formal announcement did not come until the following morning.
On Thursday, Trump acknowledged Bondi’s departure on Truth Social, praising her as “a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend.” He also noted that she had served in the role for about a year and would be moving on to opportunities in the private sector. Her deputy, Todd Blanche, has assumed the acting attorney general position.
