US President Donald Trump has sacked his Attorney General Pam Bondi. He announced this in a Truth Social post. She will be replaced by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. President Trump was reportedly displeased with Bondi’s release of the files relating to Jeffrey Epstein. He said that Bondi will be transitioning to a much-needed and important new job in the private sector. 

Sixty-year-old Bondi is the second Cabinet official dismissed by Mr Trump, following the removal of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on March 5. The Attorney General in the US has wide powers as the Head of the Department of Justice, taking on some of the functions akin to those of a Home Minister in other government structures.
