Trump Backs Bondi’s Handling Of Jeffrey Epstein Case, Insists Dems ‘Made Up’ The Files | Eastern NC Now

    President Donald Trump praised Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday for her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case and said that former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden "made up" the Epstein files.

    Trump told reporters outside the White House that Bondi has handled the case "very well." The attorney general has faced criticism from many conservatives who argue she botched the handling of the Epstein case.

    "The credibility is very important. You want credible evidence for something like that," Trump said. "And I think the attorney general has handled it very well."

    Trump added that Bondi gave him a "very quick briefing...in terms of the credibility of the different things they have seen."

    "And I would say that these files were made up by [former FBI Director James] Comey, they were made up by Obama, they were made up by the Biden administration," Trump continued. "And we went through years of that, with the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax and all of the different things that we had to go through. We've gone through years of it."

    The president said that Bondi should release "whatever she thinks is credible."

    Controversy surrounding the Epstein case has blown up in the administration as FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino reportedly threatened to resign last week if Bondi remained as AG. Bongino's frustration with Bondi reportedly boiled over days after the Department of Justice said there was no evidence to prove that child rapist Jeffrey Epstein had a client list, had blackmailed powerful people, or had been murdered.

    Bondi promised to reveal major details in the case five months ago, but there have been no significant new developments reported since then. Bongino, along with FBI Director Kash Patel, said in May that he reviewed the case and found no evidence that Epstein was murdered. In February, the White House released "The Epstein Files: Phase 1," handing out binders to right-wing social media influencers at the White House. The binders, however, contained no new bombshells on Epstein, his sexual crimes, or any alleged co-conspirators.

    The attorney general also stated in February that she had Epstein's client list on her desk, but walked that statement back last week when the DOJ said that it did not find evidence of a client list existing.

    The White House has sought to smooth things over, with Trump continuing to back Bondi, Bongino, and Patel, while Vice President JD Vance attempts to play the peacemaker between Bongino and Bondi, according to Daily Wire White House Correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan.

    Bondi has been slammed by leading conservative voices, including Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro.


    "I think that Pam Bondi botched this eight ways from Sunday. I have not seen a bigger botchery of a rollout of a story maybe ever," Shapiro told journalist Megyn Kelly on Monday.

    "I'm not blaming anybody who's upset with the fact that they were told by Pam Bondi, at least by implication, that there was an Epstein list, that there were tens of thousands of hours of tapes, that there are 1,000 victims, that there was more coming. And then nothing happens, right?" the Daily Wire host said. "That seems to be on Pam Bondi."

Now that President Trump is picking his cabinet and immediate staff to insulate him from the poor judgement of the Bureaucratic Class, while moving quickly to transition this Constitutional Republic unto a wise and sustainable direction: What is your immediate impression as to how our nation will prosper?

  We are headed toward a Golden Age in America's self-governed society.

  This will all wind up in a clustered mess since Trump is a Fascist, and thought to be the second coming of Adolf Hitler by our best journalists.

  This is a time where critical days lay ahead, where only wise and responsible decisions must be made to sustain US.

  I generally do not pay attention, but expect only the best to occur ... and that is what I always expect.
