Pam Bondi

Pam Bondi is the former Attorney General who is currently testifying before the House Oversight Committee regarding the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. She has stated that Todd Blanche, who is slated to be nominated as the permanent Attorney General, was "in charge" of the "entire release" of these files. Bondi herself was appointed on an acting basis and was reportedly fired by President Trump, with Blanche appointed as her successor. Her testimony comes as Democrats plan to call on JD Vance to testify and Bill Gates has already testified about his Epstein ties. Blanche's nomination is expected to face a Senate confirmation fight due to controversies surrounding his handling of the Epstein files and statements about January 6th. Bondi is distancing herself from what she calls the "botched" release of the files, asserting Blanche's primary responsibility.
