For over a year, Pam Bondi did not follow the usual rules of being independent as a U.S. attorney general. She made Department of Justice attorneys do what President Donald Trump wanted. This was not normal. Trump is a president who likes to get what he wants.

Even though Bondi was very loyal to Trump, it was not enough for the president. He wanted more from her.

Trump replaced Bondi with his former personal lawyer, Todd Blanche, as the new acting attorney general.

As attorney general, Bondi did many things that people did not agree with. She pushed many veteran lawyers out of the Department of Justice and went after people Trump wanted to prosecute.

A law professor named Peter Shane said Bondi changed the Department of Justice into an organization that mostly served Trump's personal goals.

Trump fired Pam Bondi from her job as U.S. attorney general. This was a surprise to many people.

A law professor said lawyers did not sign up to just please the president, but to follow the law. This is what they are supposed to do.

It is very sad to see the Department of Justice not being professional and not following the rules of democracy and the law.

In the past, presidents have given general directions to their attorneys general about what to focus on, but there have been rules to prevent the president from interfering with specific cases.

However, Trump openly told Bondi to start cases against certain people, even when there was not much evidence against them.

A professor named Daniel Urman said Bondi made the Department of Justice very political, but Trump was still not happy with her because she did not win many cases.

Urman said Trump cares about loyalty, but also about being competent and getting things done.

It seemed like the Department of Justice was not doing what Trump wanted.

When Trump announced Bondi's departure on social media, he did not show any disappointment.

Trump praised Bondi for reducing crime, but there is no proof that his policies actually worked.

In fact, during Bondi's time, the Department of Justice did not pursue as many serious crimes as before.

The Department of Justice dropped many cases, including terrorism and white-collar crime, and focused on immigration instead.

Bondi was criticized for her handling of the Epstein case.

A communications director said Bondi changed the way the Department of Justice worked, making it more about serving Trump than being fair and impartial.

On her first day, Bondi told all the lawyers that their client was now the president, not the United States.

Before that, lawyers saw their job as defending the Constitution, not just pleasing the president.

Bondi pushed out many lawyers, which damaged the Department of Justice.

A former prosecutor said Bondi was the most political attorney general in modern history.

Trump had been unhappy with Bondi for a while before he fired her.

Bondi had problems with her handling of the Epstein case, including not releasing important documents.

She initially said she had a list of Epstein's clients, but then said she did not, which caused controversy.

The release of the documents was also problematic, as it included sensitive information about the victims.

Even the release of the documents was not done well, with many being taken down from the internet.
