Donald Trump has grown weary of defending Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Justice Department’s Jeffery Epstein files and wants her to take responsibility for cleaning up the mess, according to four people familiar with White House deliberations.
“One thing that’s been clear is his feelings about it,” one White House official told NBC News. “This now resides within the DOJ.”
The administration’s refusal to disclose the full contents of the government’s investigation into Epstein, who killed himself in jail while awaiting trial on charges of sex-trafficking minors in 2019, has caused a deep rift between Trump and significant elements of his MAGA base.
This is what happens when you hire a bunch of sycophants, they are completely incapable of free intelligent thought. Everyone of them spends their days trying to say and do what will make dear leader happiest.
Fired by tweet and replaced by a random “acting” attorney general from some grocery store chain in 3…2…1

“I don’t like that she’s doing what I told her to do.”
Epstein, who killed himself in jail
Uh huh.
And the video was accidentally doctored that same week
While the guards both had amnesia.
Then he shouldn’t have picked her for that job.
More accurate title:
Trump mad that Pam Bondi is failing to make Trump’s involvement with Epstein go away like ordered
I think even more accurate is “Trump tries to shift attention to Pam Bondi to avoid association with Epstein.”
“Trump reaches his ‘start throwing everyone else under the bus’ stage of dealing with bad publicity he brought on himself.”
Trump sides with MAGA from ~3 days ago, agrees Bondi should take his fall for him.
Trump overheard telling Eric: “This is like losing your uncle Epstein all over again.”
Tell me its real!
To be fair she’s in a completely impossible position lol
And I feel absolutely no sympathy for her.
She really isn’t. She’s far enough on the inside she may actually be able to bring him down. Yeah, she’d be buried too, but she’s going down either way.

Epstein didn’t kill himself.
Should have said allegedly
Or at least “officially”.
Epstein never dies.
I don’t think it’s her job to take the heat for hiding the fact that he raped kids.
Dude, that is literally her fucking job
That’s literally her job.
No, she doesn’t think that, but he does,
You know who never had to “take responsibility for cleaning up the public relations mess” created by their crime boss raping little kids? The press secretary for every other President in US history!
She’s not his press secretary. It’s not your fault for thinking that though, given how much fucking time she spends in front of cameras defending trump. But that just helps you point even more. Why is half of this cabinet in the news dealing with scandals 24/7?
For the life of me, I can’t remember any cabinet member from this time last year except AG Garland and DOT secretary Buttigieg off the top of my head. I just looked it up and thought “oh yeah” when I saw Blinken and Yellen. I recognized Austin’s picture, but never would’ve been able to guess his name. I recognized nobody else.
Holy fuck, I miss having rational people in control. I was able to just deal with my own shit without worrying about total collapse. Fuck Biden and Harris for not taking the Israel concerns seriously enough, and fuck the people who withheld their vote over that to pave the way for what we have now. The options now seem to be basically either 1941 Germany or 476 Rome.

Considering Secretary Brain Worms, 1958 China and 1975 Cambodia seem increasingly on the table, too.
Cheer up, Charlie. We can still get lucky and only get 1346 London. Again.

There’s a good chance that the next influenza pandemic will be kicked off in the US. Get ready for the American Flu!
Maybe we’ll get real lucky and land on 1790s France. Probably not, but we can always dream.
I’m personally hoping for 1991 Yugoslavia.
We might land on 1790s bizzaro-France, where we motivate them to instill to a unilateral tyrannical leader.
I wonder if she has enough conscience and self-respect left to just dump the whole dirty mess out to the public.
Yeah, probably not. It’s fun to imagine, though.
No she was involved with the Epstein shit back in Florida decades ago. She’s been involved in covering this shit up well before it got to this point.
Source? I’d love to see
She was Florida AG from 2011 to 2019. At any point in there she could have prosecuted Epstein separately from the deal Alex Acosta made in 2008. Plenty of new information was available after that and ignored by the State of Florida under her watch.
Theoretically, she could have, said Nova Southeastern University law professor Robert Jarvis.
Not defending Pam Bondi, but that’s quite a bit different from proof she “was involved with the Epstein shit”.
She is smart enough, probably, to know he will take her down with him. Either MAGA and the news get distracted with something else, she releases more documents with careful redactions of Trump and other prominent rightwingers, or she gets fired and replaced with someone willing to.
The thing is, it’s probably the shiny, dangling carrot of her in a more powerful position that motivates her more than the stick
What’s higher than AG for a lawyer?
2 AGs at the same time
A seat in the Supreme Court gets you decades of bribes
I think it’s not uncommon that politicians get their law degree and go on to various high positions in government that may not be relevant to those degrees. In this administration, the only thing that matters is loyalty so sky is the limit for her.

1000x this. Lots of his “administration” are total clowns with zero relevant credentials, like Bobby Brainworm.
Dan Bongino the conservative radio host to deputy director of the FBI always pops in my head.
A Supreme Court seat.
It was his handling. He’s in charge now. He is responsible for every success and failure of his administration. Period.
