JAKARTA - Donald Trump made a big decision on Thursday, April 2. He fired Attorney General Pam Bondi, one of his trusted figures so far.

A number of reports say Trump is dissatisfied with the performance of the Department of Justice (DoJ) under Bondi's leadership in handling the Epstein Files scandal.

In addition, other news also suspected that Trump's decision was based on the failure of the DoJ in punishing a number of the president's political opponents. Trump said goodbye to Pam through his upload on the Truth platform.

"Pam Bondi is a great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General for the past year," Trump wrote.

"We love Pam, and she will move on to a much-needed and important new job in the private sector, which will be announced shortly," he added.

With Pam's dismissal, the position of Attorney General is currently being run by his deputy, Todd Blanche. Trump called Todd a talented person and has a respected legal insight.

Trump is reportedly considering Lee Zeldin as a replacement for Pam Bondi. He currently holds the post of US Environmental Protection Agency Administrator.

Meanwhile, Pam Bondi faces this removal professionally. He hopes that the process of transitioning the Attorney General will run smoothly.

"Over the next month, I will work tirelessly to make the transition of the Attorney General's office to the incredible Todd Blanche before moving on to a very important role in the private sector that I love so much, and where I will continue to fight for President Trump and this Administration," he wrote on X.
