WASHINGTON — President Trump fired Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday in the second major cabinet shakeup of his second term.

“We love Pam, and she will be transitioning to a much-needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future, and our Deputy Attorney General, and a very talented and respected Legal Mind, Todd Blanche, will step in to serve as Acting Attorney General,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

The public announcement comes a day after Trump told Bondi in person on Wednesday that she would be out as head of the Department of Justice, a source with knowledge of the conversation told The Post.

Bondi was at the White House to attend Trump’s address to the nation on the Iran war and had earlier in the day accompanied the president to the Supreme Court to watch oral arguments in a major birthright citizenship caseRead more here.
