Trump Removes U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi

President Trump removed Pam Bondi as Attorney General on Thursday. He was frustrated with her work. She handled files about Jeffrey Epstein, a financier and sex offender. Trump was unhappy with her performance.
Trump said Bondi will work in the private sector. Deputy Todd Blanche will be the new acting Attorney General.
Bondi's time as Attorney General is over. She changed the Justice Department's culture. She fired many employees and investigated Trump's enemies.
Bondi was scrutinized for her handling of Jeffrey Epstein's case. She was close to Trump, but couldn't satisfy his demands to prosecute rivals. Judges and grand juries rejected many investigations.
Bondi became Attorney General last year. She promised not to play politics, but started investigating Trump's foes. This sparked outrage that the Justice Department was being used for revenge.
Bondi's departure continues a trend of change in the Justice Department during Trump's presidency. Many attorneys general have been pushed out or resigned because they couldn't meet Trump's demands.
