Trump Makes Stunning Announcement About Pam Bondi - No One Saw This Coming
New York City – May 28, 2026
Trump Appoints Former Attorney General Pam Bondi to Presidential AI Advisory Council as She Recovers from Thyroid Cancer
New York City, New York — President Donald J. Trump has named former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to a prominent position on the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, where she will focus on the administration’s artificial intelligence strategy.
The appointment was confirmed following a social media post on Tuesday in which Bondi’s recovery from thyroid cancer was highlighted. According to the details shared, Bondi has undergone treatment and is recovering successfully from the highly curable form of cancer, which carries a 98 percent five-year survival rate.
Katie Miller, a former official in the first Trump administration and wife of senior adviser Stephen Miller, publicly praised Bondi’s resilience.
“[Pam] has a heart of gold,” she wrote on X.
Miller noted that Bondi approached her health battle with the same determination she has shown in public service. She also shared a screenshot of an Axios report confirming the health update and the new role.
Bondi served as Attorney General of Florida and later as a key ally during Trump’s first term. Her return to the administration comes at a time when the White House is accelerating efforts to maintain United States leadership in artificial intelligence, particularly in competition with China.
In the new position, Bondi will help coordinate discussions between the White House and leading technology executives serving on the panel, including Jensen Huang of NVIDIA, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, and Larry Ellison of Oracle.
The council forms part of a broader initiative to steer AI development toward national security and economic competitiveness. Administration officials have repeatedly stated that the United States must avoid politically driven priorities that could hinder technological progress.
President Trump addressed the importance of AI dominance during remarks to reporters last week.
“We’re leading China, we’re leading everybody, and I don’t want to do anything that’s going to get in the way of that lead.”
Vice President JD Vance welcomed Bondi’s involvement in a statement provided to Axios.
“Pam has been an enormously valuable asset to the president’s team, and I’m thrilled for her and for all of us that she’s going to remain involved in confronting some of the most important issues the administration faces.”
The announcement has drawn attention both for Bondi’s health recovery and for the strategic placement of a longtime Trump ally at the center of the administration’s rapidly expanding AI agenda. Officials describe the council as a mechanism to ensure that American innovation remains at the forefront of global competition while prioritizing security and economic strength.

The move aligns with the administration’s stated goal of assembling experienced voices to guide policy on emerging technologies. As the United States continues to invest heavily in AI infrastructure, the inclusion of Bondi is expected to strengthen coordination between government and the private sector.
