Trump fires Attorney General Pam Bondi

Donald Trump dismissed Pam Bondi from her position as the U.S. Attorney General. The move was reported by numerous domestic and international news outlets, with many headlines stating the firing directly.

In a related development, Trump's vice presidential candidate, J.D. Vance, was in Budapest and publicly supported Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Vance accused European institutions of interfering in Hungary's elections, a claim Orbán has also made. Trump reportedly called Orbán to praise his work.

The firing of Bondi and Vance's comments in Hungary were reported as connected events, with some international outlets framing the dismissal as a sign of Trump acting on political impulses.
