Pam Bondi Moves to Military Base After Reported Rise in Threats
Mar 11th 2026
Pam Bondi has moved from her D.C. residence to a nearby military base after federal authorities documented increased threats, the New York Times reports; the relocation mirrors a pattern of several administration officials taking military housing amid protests and security concerns.
- Bondi left her Washington apartment and moved into nearby military housing within the last month, the New York Times reports.
- Federal law enforcement reported an uptick in threats against Bondi, including alleged threats from drug cartels and critics of her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case.
- Her move joins several Trump administration appointees now living on military installations, including Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll, and Navy Secretary John Phelan.
- The administration has not publicly said which officials are paying rent for base housing, and some moves have required taxpayer-funded renovations, such as more than $137,000 spent on Hegseth’s home at Fort McNair.
- Advocates and critics say housing political appointees on bases can divert military housing and security resources from service members while officials cite safety concerns amid organized protests and threats.
