It's been a difficult battle.
Pam was someone who she was a guest on Verdict literally when she was just a couple of weeks into the job.
At a very beginning, brand new AG, she came on Verdict and was a guest and talked to us about everything she was trying to accomplish.
You know, she put out a tweet saying farewell.
Here's what Pam had to say.
Over the next month, I will be working tirelessly to transition the Office of Attorney General to the amazing Todd Blanch before moving to an important private sector role I am thrilled about and where I will continue fighting for President Trump and this administration.
Leading President Trump's historic and highly successful efforts to make America safer and more secure has been the honor of a lifetime and easily the most consequential first year of the Department of Justice in American history.
Since February 2025, we have secured the lowest murder rate in 125 years, secured first-ever terrorism convictions against members of Antifa,
shattered domestic and transnational gangs across the country, taken custody of more than 90 key cartel figures, and won 24 favorable rulings at the Supreme Court.
I remain internally grateful for the trust that President Trump placed in me to make America safe again.
And listen, I think Pam served honorably.
It is the president's prerogative to choose if he wants new leadership in the Department of Justice, and he's made that choice.
but I think Pam served honorably in a very difficult job, and I think her results, particularly in terms of crime, in terms of going after murderers and rapists and gangbangers and illegal aliens, and the resulting 20% drop in the murder rate is staggering and unprecedented and is something she should be very proud of.
I'm certain that she is, because between that...
And the rate of drug overdose deaths dropping 20 percent nationally, there are literally thousands of Americans right now who are alive today because of the policy she and President Trump and a Republican Congress put in place, securing the border and removing dangerous criminals.
That's something to be really proud of.
Yeah, look, at least right now what's been announced is that Todd Blanch, who's the deputy attorney general, is going to be the acting attorney general.
I don't know how long that's going to last.
It wouldn't surprise me if President Trump gives him a little bit of time to see what kind of job he does.
He may end up leaving Todd Blanch in that role.
