Why President Trump Fired Pam Bondi; Americans Drown in Medical Debt

from Here's the Scoop · host yasmin vossoughian, garrett haake, gretchen morgenson

What was the straw that broke the camel’s back for Attorney General Pam Bondi? Sources close to President Donald Trump told NBC News that he felt she had bungled the Epstein files saga and hadn’t done enough to prosecute the president’s political enemies. NBC News senior Capitol Hill correspondent Garrett Haake breaks down how she has changed the Justice Department — and whether interim AG Todd Blanche will stay on permanently. Plus, the rising cost of medical care is drowning Americans in debt. In the latest edition of NBC News’ “Unaffordable America” series, senior financial reporter Gretchen Morgenson explains how the problem is expected to worsen as more than 10 million Americans lose health care coverage as a result of the president’s signature “big, beautiful bill.” Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
