Attorney General Pam Bondi continues to face backlash following the Justice Department's announcement there is no evidence Jeffrey Epstein kept a client list.
President Donald Trump expressed disbelief when a reporter raised a question about Jeffrey Epstein during a Cabinet meeting Tuesday. “I can’t believe you are asking a question about Epstein,” he said, before turning the floor over to U.
S. Attorney General Pam Bondi. continues to face backlash following the Justice Department's announcement that there is no evidence Jeffrey Epstein kept a client list or was murdered. The announcement came after months of hints that new information was going to be released. During Tuesday's cabinet meeting, Bondi fielded more questions about the memo, including being asked whether or not Epstein was an intelligence asset.Epstein conspiracies have run rampant for a while and his connection to the most powerful people is well known, his link to being an agent has been brought up before. In 2008, then U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta gave Epstein a sweetheart deal for a worldwide sex trafficking scandal. In 2019, while serving in the first Trump administration, Acosta was asked about Epstein being an intelligence asset after the DOJ released a report on that investigation.Rumors and intrigue also continue to swirl due to conflicting CCTV information. In 2020, U.S. prosecutors said jail footage was destroyed by accident. But on Monday, the DOJ and FBI released a 10-hour video recorded outside Epstein's cell door to prove his death was a suicide. But the time stamps skip from 11:58 pm to midnight. The minute missing from the video, we released the video showing definitively the video was not conclusive, but the evidence prior to it was showing he committed suicide," said Bondi during Tuesday's cabinet meeting. In response to the DOJ memo, several MAGA loyalists, including Laura Loomer, are now calling for Bondi to resign. Writing in part on 'X," "The American people and MAGA base will not tolerate being lied to." Conservative political commentator Megyn Kelly also slammed Bondi over her handling of the Epstein files, saying her days are numbered. So she's either lazy and incompetent or she willingly humiliated some of the President's most loyal supporters," Kelly said. The memo is also likely to generate even more outrage from those who claimed Epstein's high-profile associates could be implicated in his crimes, after the DOJ and FBI announced no further charges are expected.
