President Donald Trump fired Bondi as attorney general in early April and Todd Blanche is now serving as acting attorney general.<\/p>\n

She is scheduled to testify Friday in the House Oversight Committee\u2019s Jeffrey Epstein probe.<\/p>\n

Axios was first to report Bondi\u2019s diagnosis and also reported that she will have a new role in the administration, joining the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.<\/p>\n

When asked about Bondi\u2019s new role, Vice President JD Vance told CNN in a statement, \u201cPam has been an enormously valuable asset to the president\u2019s team, and I\u2019m thrilled for her and for all of us that she\u2019s going to remain involved in confronting some of the most important issues the administration faces.\u201d<\/p>\n

For months before her firing, Trump had been discussing his frustrations with Bondi over what he believed was a failure to aggressively bring cases against his political foes.<\/p>\n
