Report: Trump wants Bondi to take responsibility
Donald Trump is tired of defending Attorney General Pam Bondi and wants her to take responsibility and sort out the situation after all the commotion surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, sources close to the White House told NBC News.
However, according to the information, she is liked by the president. She is seen as a loyal person and there are no plans to fire her. NBC, however, describes it as the president wanting to direct the storm of criticism in her direction.
– I absolutely think he likes and respects Pam, but there is no denying that she has caused some headaches, says a source.
In February, the attorney general said that she has a "client list" linked to the now-dead sex offender. She later said that it was about other documents.
Epstein victims: We are being silenced by political games
Four women who were victims of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein tell NBC News that their suffering is being ignored by political games.
– It feels like we are being erased. All the brave women who came forward. Everything we did to tell our story is being erased, says Danielle Bensky, who was abused by Epstein more than 20 years ago.
The case has long been surrounded by conspiracy theories that Epstein let powerful men abuse girls and then used this as a means of power over them. But this week, the FBI and the US Department of Justice announced that there is no evidence of this and that no new documents will be made public, which has led to widespread criticism.
The women NBC has spoken to want the Trump administration to reveal who the powerful men were, instead of obstructing future legal proceedings.
Trump: "Left-wing crazies" will want even more
Even if the court agrees to release testimony from the investigation into the deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, it will not be enough for the "troublemakers" and "left-wing crazies". This is what US President Donald Trump writes in a post on Truth Social
According to the president, they will always want "more, more, more" information.
Politico writes that the information that could be released through such a measure will probably not be new.
The Epstein investigation — that's the point
- The US Department of Justice decided in July to close the Epstein investigation and not release any more documents, which drew widespread criticism from both the MAGA movement and the Democrats.
- President Donald Trump, who had previously promised transparency, faced increasing demands from his own party colleagues and Speaker Mike Johnson to release the investigation material.
- The Wall Street Journal published a letter from Trump to Epstein with a drawing of a naked woman, which Trump denied and responded by suing Rupert Murdoch and the newspaper for 100 billion kronor.
- Trump urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to release testimony from the grand jury, but experts say this is unlikely to satisfy critics within his voter base.
- According to a Quinnipiac University poll, nearly two-thirds of American voters are critical of the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein case.
