“We love Pam and she will be moving on to a new, much-needed and important position in the private sector to be announced in the near future,” Trump wrote.
Her deputy Todd Blanche will perform the duties of the Prosecutor General, the head of the White House indicated.

She is the second Cabinet member to be removed from office in recent weeks after Trump removed Kristi Noem as Homeland Security secretary last month.
Bondi wrote in X that she would ensure that Blanch's cases were transferred within the next month, after which she would move to work in the private sector.

At the same time, one of the sources said that, despite the words about the private sector, Bondi does not yet have any specific work.
