The MAGA world is melting down over a Department of Justice memo first reported by Axios that concludes it had no evidence Jeffery Epstein, a convicted sex offender, blackmailed influential people.
President Donald Trump has lashed out at those who insisted Epstein had a “client list” that should be released and are calling for Attorney General Pam Bondi’s firing.
In a Truth Social post on July 12, Trump scolded those critics and said the “Epstein files” were created by people in the former administration, should not be publicized, and called them “Radical Left inspired Documents.”
Trump wrote: “Why are we giving publicity to Files written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration, who conned the World with the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, 51 ‘Intelligence’ Agents, ‘THE LAPTOP FROM HELL,’ and more? They created the Epstein Files, just like they created the FAKE Hillary Clinton/Christopher Steele Dossier that they used on me, and now my so-called “friends” are playing right into their hands.”
Trump pleaded with those asking for Bondi’s firing to stop. “LET PAM BONDI DO HER JOB — SHE’S GREAT!” he wrote.
He said those going after her should focus on his administration’s achievements.
“We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s happening,” said Trump, who calls the uproar a distraction.
“We are about to achieve more in 6 months than any other Administration has achieved in over 100 years, and we have so much more to do,” Trump added.
Former Trump ally Elon Musk replied that Trump could end the controversy by releasing files on Epstein.
“He said ‘Epstein’ half a dozen times while telling everyone to stop talking about Epstein. Just release the files as promised,” the former DOGE chief posted on X.
