多名知情人士向美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)透露,总统唐纳德·特朗普私下曾考虑解雇司法部长帕姆·邦迪,并由美国环境保护署署长李·泽尔丁接任该职位。
消息人士称,特朗普因其支持者对政府处理杰弗里·爱泼斯坦档案的方式感到不满和愤怒而感到沮丧,他已向他人询问更换邦迪的可能性。邦迪将于本月晚些时候在国会山就针对已故性贩子的国会调查相关事宜接受证词。特朗普还对邦迪没有充分调查他的政治对手感到愤怒。
消息人士告诉CNN,目前尚不清楚总统是否已下定决心。周三邦迪曾陪同特朗普,乘坐他的车队出席了关于出生权公民权的最高法院听证会。特朗普在给CNN的一份声明中对邦迪表示了信任。
“司法部长帕姆·邦迪是一位出色的人物,她的工作表现出色,”总统说道。
当被要求置评时,司法部援引了白宫的声明。一位知情人士告诉CNN,特朗普和邦迪在过去几天里多次交谈,相关讨论“和往常一样属于公务范畴”。
消息人士称,用泽尔丁取代邦迪的想法最早在1月份被提出,随后随着爱泼斯坦相关报道淡出新闻周期而被搁置。一位消息人士称,司法部的一些高级官员曾认为,持续一年的爱泼斯坦档案相关麻烦终于告一段落。但周一,特朗普想用泽尔丁取代邦迪的消息再次在西翼(白宫行政办公楼)传开。
一位人士告诉CNN,泽尔丁并不被视为邦迪被解雇后的最终人选。特朗普曾提及其他候选人,但提到泽尔丁的次数最多。
《纽约时报》最先报道了邦迪可能被罢免的消息。
邦迪在政府内部有几位坚定盟友,其中包括白宫办公厅主任苏西·怀尔斯。
但怀尔斯此前在接受《名利场》记者采访时承认,邦迪在处理爱泼斯坦档案一事上“完全搞砸了”。

Trump has discussed ousting Attorney General Pam Bondi, sources say

President Donald Trump has privately mused about firing his Attorney General Pam Bondi and replacing her with EPA administrator Lee Zeldin, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
Frustrated by the backlash and anger in his base over the administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, Trump has asked people about replacing Bondi, who faces a deposition later this month on Capitol Hill related to the congressional investigation into the late sex trafficker, the sources said. He has also fumed that she hasn’t investigated enough of his political opponents.
It’s not clear the president has made up his mind, the sources told CNN. Bondi was with Trump Wednesday, riding in his motorcade as he attended the Supreme Court arguments on birthright citizenship. Trump voiced confidence in her in a statement to CNN.
“Attorney General Pam Bondi is a wonderful person and she is doing a good job,” the president said.
Asked for comment, the Justice Department referred to the White House statement. A source familiar with the matter told CNN that Trump and Bondi have spoken repeatedly in the past several days, and that the discussions were “business as usual.”
The idea of replacing Bondi with Zeldin first arose in January, then subsided as Epstein coverage slipped from the news cycle, sources said. Some senior officials in the DOJ believed that the year-long headache of the Epstein files was finally behind them, a source said. But word that Trump wanted to replace Bondi with Zeldin began to circulate again in the West Wing on Monday.
Zeldin is not seen as a final choice to replace Bondi if she’s dismissed. Trump has mentioned other candidates, but Zeldin the most often, one person told CNN.
The New York Times first reported on Bondi’s potential ouster.
Bondi has several strong allies within the administration, including White House chief of staff Susie Wiles.
But in remarks to a reporter for Vanity Fair, Wiles previously acknowledged that Bondi had “completely whiffed” in her handling of the Epstein files.
