On
a
recent
episode
of
The
Late
Show
with
Stephen
Colbert,
the
host
turned
his
attention
to
the
firing
of
Pam
Bondi,
a
departure
that,
if
reports
are
to
be
believed,
has
a
whole
lot
to
do
with
her
handling
of
the
Epstein
files.
You
know,
the
ones
that
have
been
released
in
a
fashion
best
described
as
“Mad
Libs,
but
make
it
national
scandal.”
Colbert
opened
with
what
might
be
the
most
efficient
takedown
of
the
situation
yet.
“In
tribute
to
Pam
Bondi,
I
offer
this
heartfelt
farewell,”
he
said,
holding
up
a
document
redacted
except
for
the
following:
“Dear
Pam,”
and
“Sincerely,
Stephen
Colbert.”

It’s
a
joke
works
because
it’s
barely
an
exaggeration.
And
he
didn’t
stop
there,
“Saying
that
the
villain
of
the
Epstein
files
is
Pam
Bondi
is
like
saying
the
lead
in
‘Die
Hard’
is
the
dad
from
‘Family
Matters.’”
Which
brings
us
to
the
official
line
from
Donald
Trump,
who
announced
Bondi
would
be
“transitioning
to
a
much
needed
and
important
new
job
in
the
private
sector.”
Sure…
but
it
did
let
Colbert
bust
out
his
Trump
impersonation.
“It’s
a
much-needed
job
at
a
very
important
farm
upstate.
There’ll
be
lots
of
room
for
her
to
run
around.
Unfortunately,
we
can’t
go
visit
her,”
he
said.
“Now
let’s
go
to
the
strip
mall
and
get
you
a
new
attorney
general,
buddy.”
