On April 2, 2026, President Trump fired Bondi as Attorney General. Per CNN, Washington Post, CBS News, and TIME reporting, Trump's stated frustrations with Bondi included her inability to deliver swift prosecutions of his political adversaries AND her handling of the Epstein files. Deputy AG Todd Blanche was named acting Attorney General.

On April 8, 2026, the DOJ informed the House Oversight Committee that Bondi will not appear for her scheduled April 14 deposition regarding her handling of the Epstein files. The DOJ argued the subpoena 'no longer obligates' her since she is no longer Attorney General. The subpoena had been issued on a bipartisan vote in the Oversight Committee — sponsored by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) with all Democrats plus GOP Reps. Tim Burchett (R-TN), Michael Cloud (R-TX), Lauren Boebert (R-CO), and Scott Perry (R-PA) voting in favor. Mace publicly stated the subpoena was 'issued by name, not by title' and remains valid; Ranking Member Robert Garcia (D-CA) accused Bondi of 'trying to get out of her legal obligation' and threatened contempt of Congress proceedings.

⚠️ Inclusion in this database means a person's name appears in the released Epstein documents in the context described. The DOJ's own February 14, 2026 letter to Congress explicitly states that names appear 'in a wide variety of contexts,' including unrelated press reporting fragments. Presence in a document does not establish criminal wrongdoing.
