Trump admin updates: Trump marks 1 year since assassination attempt in Butler, PA

Trump defended Bondi in a social media post Saturday as leadership at the Justice Department and the FBI face turmoil over its handling of the Epstein probe.

Trump praised Bondi for doing a "fantastic job" and urged his "boys" and "gals" to stop criticizing her.

"We have a PERFECT Administration, THE TALK OF THE WORLD, and 'selfish people' are trying to hurt it, all over a guy who never dies, Jeffrey Epstein," Trump said, encouraging unity within the Republican party.

"LET PAM BONDI DO HER JOB — SHE’S GREAT!" he continued.

The Epstein files for years have been the subject of widespread speculation and conspiracy theories, Trump dismissed the controversy.

"One year ago our Country was DEAD, now it’s the 'HOTTEST' Country anywhere in the World. Let’s keep it that way, and not waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein, somebody that nobody cares about," Trump said.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has fired at least 20 prosecutors and support staffers who assisted former Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigations into President Trump, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News Saturday.

Senior leadership at the department had already ousted most of the remaining prosecutors associated with the probes.

A DOJ spokesperson didn't immediately respond to request.

Some of staffers who have been identified through the Justice Department's "weaponization working group" may not have had any significant role in driving the prosecutions themselves and were, support staff, litigation assistants and U.S. marshals, according to sources.

The firings have sent a chill through the remainder of DOJs career workforce, which had previously been left shaken by dramatic purges and reassignments of officials in the early days of Trump's presidency.

President Donald Trump has posted two letters on his social media platform announcing new tariffs on the European Union and Mexico.

Trump will impose a 30% tariff on Mexico due to fentanyl crossing the border and a 30% tariff on the EU as a result of the U.S. trade deficit.

The federal judge who temporarily barred the Trump administration from conducting broad, untargeted immigration stops and arrests in parts of California was "undermining the will of the American people," the Department of Homeland Security said.

"America's brave men and women are removing murderers, MS-13 gang members, pedophiles, rapists -- truly the worst of the worst from Golden State communities," the department said in a statement.

U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli, of California's Central District, said federal agents "will continue to enforce the law and abide by the U.S. Constitution."

"We strongly disagree with the allegations in the lawsuit and maintain that our agents have never detained individuals without proper legal justification," he said in a statement.
