In a statement shared on social media, President Donald Trump expressed support for US Attorney General Pam Bondi after increasing criticism surrounding her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. Responding to calls for Bondi’s resignation from some prominent supporters, Trump urged them to let her "do her job." This comes after Bondi's Justice Department released a memo that did not meet many expectations for explosive revelations concerning Epstein’s alleged client list or any potential high-profile blackmail details.
The memo dismissed rumors about an incriminating client list and confirmed Epstein's death as a suicide, which diverges from ongoing conspiracy theories held by some of Trump’s allies. Following the release of the memo, frustration bubbled over during a meeting between Bondi and FBI officials, signaling rifts in the FBI-Justice Department relationship over the case.
In the wake of continued interest in Epstein’s ties to powerful figures, Trump expressed disbelief that the topic is still receiving so much attention, stating it distracts from more pressing matters. Bondi, who told Fox News earlier this year that she was reviewing Epstein's client list, later clarified her comments, implicating her discussions with the entire Epstein file rather than a specific list. The Epstein saga continues to stir debates and conspiracy theories, with critics and supporters alike dissecting every detail.
