Furor over Epstein Files Sparks Clash Between Bondi and Bongin

WASHINGTON, D.C., JUL 12 – Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino clashed over withholding Epstein investigation records amid pressure from far-right conservatives and Trump supporters.

  • On July 7, the FBI and Justice Department released a brief statement announcing their determination that Jeffrey Epstein did not have a client list and chose not to make additional investigation records public.
  • After months of reviewing evidence, a dispute arose at the White House between the Attorney General and the FBI's Deputy Director over a NewsNation report highlighting alleged internal divisions, intensifying existing tensions.
  • Far-Right Trump supporters expressed disillusionment over the absence of major revelations, while Democrats and Republicans voiced confusion, amid conspiracy theories and rumors of resignations within the DOJ and FBI leadership.
  • Representative Jamie Raskin condemned the refusal to disclose the purported client list, noting that many individuals have hinted at its existence, and urged that subpoenas be issued to key officials to provide testimony.
  • The administration seeks to minimize internal rifts, asserting the work continues with unity and emphasizing progress in restoring safety and justice despite ongoing fallout from the Epstein investigation.
