Calls for Pam Bondi to resign intensified this week after a group of Republican lawmakers publicly questioned her leadership and handling of recent controversies, sparking a new wave of internal party friction.
The push did not come from Democrats or outside critics — it came from members within her own political circle.
Bondi, the former Florida attorney general and longtime Republican figure, has faced renewed scrutiny following disputes tied to her public statements and political affiliations. While supporters argue she remains a capable and experienced voice within the party, detractors say recent developments have damaged credibility and public trust.
Several GOP officials stopped short of formally demanding her resignation but signaled that “accountability” must come first. Others were more direct, suggesting she should step aside to avoid distracting from broader party priorities.
Bondi rose to national prominence during her tenure as Florida’s attorney general from 2011 to 2019, becoming one of the most visible Republican legal figures in the country. Her profile expanded further when she participated in high-profile political proceedings, including impeachment-related events.
