Epstein's List

"Donald Trump’s political allies have long insisted, with more than a little condescension, that the press should take the President seriously, but not literally. Yet the people who take Trump most literally are among his own supporters, who over the years have absorbed his most hyperbolic claims as if they were settled truth: that Hillary Clinton and various Bidens were guilty of high crimes, that the 2020 election was stolen, that the circumstances surrounding the death of the billionaire Jeffrey Epstein warranted “a full investigation” and might have involved Bill Clinton. Rarely do the diehards demand proof."

"When Attorney General Pam Bondi declared in a memo on July 10 that “no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted” for the countless files, pictures and video held by the Department of Justice related to the late pedophile and wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein she unleashed a firestorm.
After serving up red meat to conservative conspiracists for years about Epstein and the elite pedophile sex ring he operated, Bondi turned the tables on them. Instead of revealing the truth as everyone from Bondi, FBI director Kash Patel, FBI deputy director Dan Bongino, Donald Trump Jr., billionaire Elon Musk, Vice President JD Vance and even President Donald Trump promised, the Trump administration now appeared to be in on the cover-up.
Conservative influencers rebelled, castigating the administration for failing to live up to its promise. Trump, meanwhile, made the story worse, claiming the whole Epstein story was a “scam” and a “hoax” cooked up by Democrats like former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden. He told his supporters to pound sand, calling them “stupid” and “weaklings” and that “I don’t want their support anymore!” Trump and White House officials have spent weeks now trying to calm their conservative allies and strong-arm them into not talking about Epstein anymore."
