Trump: “It's a Democrat hoax. It's just a hoax. The whole Epstein thing is a Democrat hoax.”

Nonetheless, Attorney General Pam Bondi has signaled that the Epstein matter, especially as it applies to Donald J. Trump, is no hoax.
She first told us on February 21, 2025. Asked by Fox News America Reports host John Roberts whether "the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients" will be released, Bondi replied "It's sitting on my desk right now to review."
There probably is no actual list of men to whom Epstein supplied women for their carnal pleasure. Flight logs (to Epstein Island and elsewhere), a Rolodex-type record of contact numbers, sure; yet ironically, the list the right-wing has been pining for, unlikely.
However, the files are extremely vast and
When Attorney General Pam Bondi briefed President Donald Trump in May on the Justice Department’s review of the documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case, she told him that his name appeared in the files, sources familiar with the discussion told CNN.
The conversation, which also included Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, was characterized by two White House officials as a “routine briefing” that covered the scope of the Justice Department’s findings. Trump’s name appearing in the files, they said, was not the sole focus of the discussions.
Translation: she told him, but we discussed other things, too. Three days prior to that conversation, the Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Democrat Dick Durbin of Illinois, had sent to FBI director Kash Patel a letter requesting a response to 15 questions Durbin posed. The Senator noted that "according to information my office received," Attorney General Bondi
pressured the FBI to put approximately 1,000 personnel in its Information Management Division (IMD), including the Record/Information Dissemination Section (RIDS), which handles all requests submitted by the public under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and Privacy Act, on 24-hour shifts to review approximately 100,000 Epstein-related records in order to produce more documents that could then be released on an arbitrarily short deadline. This effort, which reportedly took place from March 14 through the end of March, was haphazardly supplemented by hundreds of FBT New York Field Office personnel, many of whom lacked the expertise to identify statutorily-protected information regarding child victims and child witnesses or properly handle FOIA requests.
My office was told that these personnel were instructed to "flag" any records in which President Trump was mentioned.
In 2013, a group supporting Florida Attorney General Bondi accepted an illegal $25,000 contribution from the Donald J. Trump Foundation. The A.G.'s office thereafter declined to join a New York lawsuit against the Foundation despite 22 complaints against the latter and related entities.
That same Pam Bondi, now the US Attorney General de jure and de facto attorney for Donald Trump, pressures the FBI to assign 1,000 employees to review on 24-hour shifts approximately 100,00 Epstein-related files. They were expected to flag any records with a reference to Donald Trump so documents could be quickly released.
Yet, a "hoax." Responding to a subpoena, the Justice Department on Friday gave to the House Oversight Committee a few files, no doubt those in which they've thus far been able to redact Trump's name.
They all would be released, and with no redactions, if the President could make his name- and that of his wife- disappear without it being obvious. As usual, however, Trump's political instincts are sound. It might be Donald Trump's rape of women or of girls, or both; involvement in extensive money laundering schemes; Vladimir Putin's awareness of Trump's past and subsequent control of the American president; bygone activities of Melania Trump, nee Knauss; any combination of the other, or worse.
President Trump, Pam Bondi, and possibly Kash Patel know that the full, unredacted Epstein files cannot be released and will make sure they're not. If somehow they were, the political careers of Donald J. Trump and probably others would be over.
