Attorney General Pam Bondi was quietly and quickly moved to secure military housing amid threats from drug cartels and critics over her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, according to a report.

Bondi was relocated from her apartment in Washington, D.C., to one of several heavily guarded military bases in the city, after federal law enforcement alerted her staff about the potential for danger.

Sources told The New York Times that Bondi’s move happened within the month, and that it was prompted by an uptick in threats, particularly after the U.S.’ January operation to oust Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. He led for more than 10 years before he was captured in Caracas alongside his wife, Cillian Flores, and brought to New York to face narco-terrorism charges.

Bondi joins a long list of officials camping out in D.C. military facilities for fear of threats from criminals, enemies overseas and even protesters. Others include domestic policy adviser Stephen Miller, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and departing Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

In addition, Daniel P. Driscoll, the Army secretary, has moved into military housing, and so has Navy Secretary John Phelan, whose Washington home was damaged in a fire last year, the Times reported.

It is unclear whether any of Trump’s officials are paying rent for the housing, with the exception of Noem, whose spokesperson previously said she paid “fair-market rent” for her residence in 2025. Her decision to move came after the Daily Mail published photos taken outside her home.
