Julie Kelly is personally very close to Dan Bongino and a significant advocate for him. According to Julie Kelly and various other media sources, Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino is threatening to quit over issues surrounding how the DOJ has handled the Jeffrey Epstein information.
Julie Kelly writes, “Sources confirm to me the blow up between Dan Bongino and Pam Bondi is very real. This has been brewing for four months and came to a head at the White House on Wednesday. He has not been in the office since. Most of the frustration at FBI relates to her handling of Epstein disclosures and disputes between FBI and Bondi about how to proceed. Bongino appears ready to resign imminently if Bondi remains in office.”
Axios, CNN and various other outlets have essentially confirmed the same story.
Mary Margaret Olohan from the Daily Wire writes, “Bongino in particular, one source said, is frustrated that the DOJ, at the start of this week, declared the Epstein case effectively closed and determined that the accused sex trafficker died by suicide while awaiting trial, with few further details shared. He wants more documents unsealed, the source added.” Olohan also said, “Source close to Dan Bongino tells me it’s either him or Pam Bondi, and that he won’t stay at FBI if she stays at DOJ.
If this is all true is doesn’t bode well for Dan Bongino and he will likely be asked to depart from his position, if he has not already resigned. This type of emotional response is considered a significant sign of instability amid executive level office holders. The either/or threat never works at this level.
Apparently no one could see this coming.
One man’s “emotional response” may be another’s man’s “principled integrity” (as opposed to one blogger’s “significant sign of instability”).
YMMV.
Bongino has children, right?
Patel and Bondi don’t?
you know
Patel has children as do some of the US Supreme Court judges. Deep state not above threats to family members to ge those in power to do what they want.
Well said, if he will not put his name to a lie I greatly respect him, and there are a lot of lies and half truths being spoken at the moment and it is dangerous, the 4D chess nonsense has long ago worn out.
Yet, there are still folks right here who continue to try to convince us that this is just another of Trump’s 4D chess moves…
I don’t think any of us know with certainty that certain things are going ‘according to plan’. but, PDJT has more wins than losses, so I’m betting on him working some sort of strategy around the Epstein info.
Do they always make criminal investigations publicly known? If not, they could be working on indictments for some of the people on ‘the list’ right now.
The thing about 4D chess is you don’t recognize it until the win happens. But, I do understand your frustration about not seeing anything tangible happening.
No, criminal investigations are “sensitive” by nature, often including whether arrests are indictments are imminent (or at least the specifics). We won’t know until they decide to let us know.
well said. bongino knows his base is threatened if he follows these liars. bongino has spent 12 years building an army and I can assure you I’m one of them and I’m very pissed off.
Please define “Principled Integrity” for us.
James Comey thinks he’s acted with great principled integrity too.
Nope… comey KNOWS that he has committed TREASON of the Nth Degree of Magnitude…
Then, comey complicated his situation with his little sea shell “trick” of telling folks to “86” President Trump…
Now he is just worried about getting his worthless neck stretched by a noose..
This may be true, but he believes that he’s done all this to save the country, he’s practicing his own principled integrity according to his own values..
So again, who gets to define what principled integrity is?
Each of us do. Personally I believe Comey is a deep state slimy weasel. Bongino appears to be a stand up guy who am much more inclined to believe. My personal two cents worth. And yes, you do get change.
Comey is a commie and as such he has no principled integrity, the commie motto is the ends justify the means and by any means necessary.
James Comey has integrity? Who knew?
Only The Lord God, Almighty!
You are absolutely correct, NHnative. Exactly to your point:
It is said, “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter”.
It appears that whomever has the power gets to narrate the definition, which puts us all in one heckuva pickle. I often feel like I’m watching a tennis match. Sometimes I feel like I’m the tennis ball. Even here on CTH.
THANK YOU.
You are the first person that understood what I was saying.
“So again, who gets to define what principled integrity is?”
The Bible has much to say about principles of integrity and moral values. Dan Bongino is a devout Christian. Jim Comey is probably among those in DC who worship Satan and go to “Spirit Cooking Dinners.”: (Code for satanic rituals, and which the Lefist Elite claimed was “performance art” at the time of the 2016 election when their participation in these was exposed in the John Podesta emails leaked by Wikileaks ) It is already obvious Comey is a sociopath, anyway.
Context is everything in terms of credibility when one claims they have “principled integrity.”
By their fruits you shall know them.
That’s my formula following biblical principles.
Nope. Just because someone says their actions are admirable doesn’t mean that is true, or that they believe it.
People who use their government position to fight against a political opponent while claiming to be saving democracy have no integrity (by definition).
Comey’s lying about finding the shell design (instead of shaping it himself), and further lying that he didn’t understand the message was a threat, is further proof of this.
Those people certainly think they have friends in high places..
Well said … a “textbook” observation, IMO … and right on target.
White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields released a statement on the Bondi-Bongino clash.
“President Trump has assembled a highly qualified and experienced law and order team dedicated to protecting Americans, holding criminals accountable, and delivering justice to victims. This work is being carried out seamlessly and with unity. Any attempt to sow division within this team is baseless and distracts from the real progress being made in restoring public safety and pursuing justice for all,” Harrison Fields said.
This is another why MAGA is upset with Trump administration.
They keep gaslighting and lying to our faces just like the Clinton, Obama, and Biden administrations did.
The truth coming from the Trump administration was refreshing but they decided to side with child molestors and run interference for the Deep State all while pissing on MAGA and telling us it’s raining.
That statement is insulting & horribly patronizing. At this point they’d do better to keep silent than continue to dig this ditch any deeper than it already is.
No, the statement is an administration without reddit-chan sophomoric “we will quit unless Bondi quits’ musings.
It shows unity and class and not trashy Q lemmings defending Dan’s hissy fit because he is pissed he looked like a deer in headlights with Ka$h on all of their P.R. stunts.
It wasn’t as easy as it looked. He owns several nice mansions and wants to play bitch and moan with his army.
I am all as MAGA as it gets and don’t disagree with Bongino; but get real defending his hissy fit.
The missing minute video has not been shown to be all video tapes in the jail miss a minute -as Bondi said-yet has it?
It turned into an instant meme and Bongino is embarrassed as he reviewed it many times and thought it was the cats meow of evidence.
The divide is real. Loomer calling Tucker a Jew hater is weird. Loomer herself is a bigot racist against people from India…The Q people still waiting on the plan as if JE was it. Go look for an X user called RealAF Patriot. It is scary on how they think deltas are happening and everything Scavino posts in a comm.
In the beginning we were told the cameras were off/not working outside Epstein’s cell the night “he committed suicide”. Supposedly the video we’ve been shown isn’t of Epstein’s cell?
But was that the room Epstein was actually in that the camera is pointed at?
Jeffrey Epstein was found deceased in cell 220 of the Special Housing Unit (SHU) at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in Manhattan on the morning of August 10, 2019.
But now, a devastating revelation obliterates the mainstream narrative: Epstein’s cell was located in L Tier — a secure, upper-level corridor — not on the lower level as widely and falsely reported across corporate media outlets.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/07/breaking-another-massive-epstein-bombshell-media-narrative-destroyed/
The video released shows a partial view of the common area. I say partial, you cannot see the stairwell going up to Epstein’s cell.
“they decided to side with child molestors and run interference for the Deep State”
O really??
Is that why pedo rings are getting rounded up world-wide ever since Trump was inaugurated?
What does rounding up a pedo ring have to do with bringing out the truth about Epstein and the client lists?
And yes, burying the Epstein issue IS absolutely protecting the pedos. Especially the ones in the Senate and Congress.
Let’s just say protecting the “elite” pedos.
it’s OK, some people type before they think.
Too much about Epstein’s rise to wealth smells like a Fed sanctioned (and possibly funded) honey trap for multiple pecadillos–and seeing how money was sanitized by USAID who’s to say that this isn’t a possibility?
Smells like something the FBI would be quarterbacking, if you ask me.
Agree, Pam Bondi is no different than Merritt Garland, what fiasco! I was devistated to hear evn Trump cover for them… WTH?
Well, the coverup happened during his admin, not Biden’s.
Trump will defend at first even if he plans to fire them ….after the die down in the Media and it will be for a completely different reason.
Bondi must go!
Question how she got there.
Susie Wiles
Wiles appears to be the Valerie Jarrett (aka, the “Obama whisperer”) of the Trump administration.
Aka, the rat.
Anyone who thinks the Biden WH staff were “good people” as Wiles was quoted as saying, is a piece of work.
To be avoided at all costs.
Was just about to type that.
Hypothetically, there is a list for arguments sake, with one hundred names on it linking them to Epstein.
Why can’t that be viewed as sufficient evidence to look into current activity to determine ongoing criminal behavior?
Isn’t it enough to be suspected of a crime by association with a known criminal to warrant further investigation?
It is more than likely they are still active pedophiles. Charges can be brought for current activities having nothing to do with Epstein.
John Doe is on Epstein’s list. John Doe is now a suspect in child abuse, trafficking children and other crimes. He is either cleared or arrested for provable acts by accumulated evidence or the lack thereof.
If they are arrested and charged there’s a strong possiblity they will name names.
Justice can still be served.
This could be the approach President Trump is pursuing.
Gathering hard evidence that will hold up in court, not just names on a list.
Nobody’s getting arrested over this issue…at least nobody with power and influence.
We don’t know that yet. The wheels of justice grind exceedingly slow.
Do we know if persons are being investigated as we speak and evidence being gathered?
You may be right. Being suspicious of the DOJ/FBI is not undeserved.
When the time comes, subpoena Cindy McCain.
She is on video saying she was aware of everything Epstein was doing.
There is more than enough proven evidence available to arrest and indict certain individuals.
Yet, because of who they are, bondi is protecting them… President Trump obviously approves of her actions or he would replace her with someone who will enforce the law.
Justice CAN NOT be served as long as pam bondi is Trump’s AG.
.
There is more than enough proven evidence available to arrest and indict certain individuals.
The only evidence the FBI has for unindicted individuals applies to a slew of women workers for Epstein, plus allegations against Prince Andrew (not our jurisdiction.)
.
Sorry outhouse, but there are TONS of evidence out there, much of which is already being presented in active court cases…
The fbi had the evidence… if they no longer have it, they purposely destroyed it to protect certain individuals…
And, don’t forget about the federal “government’s” own little private internet, complete with their own private “cloud” programs… The internet NEVER FORGETS anything.
.
Name one name, since you profess to know better.
.
I have never said that I know the names…
I do have a copy of the Lolita Express manifests which was posted on the internet years ago and is most likely still available..
I do have a copy of epstein’s cell phone contact list which was posted on the internet years ago and is most likely still available..
I will not list names due to the fact that some of those individuals were maintenance workers, some were the detectives that investigated him at various times, some were construction workers, there are lots of folks of various professions, etc., most of whom are guilty of only trying to earn a living and are not pedophiles.
In other words, only the DOJ/FBI knows who the pedophiles are, and they ain’t gonna tell us at this point in time.
Trying to find a list of names is a waste of your time!
That has nothing to do with releasing a list of names compiled by a deceased criminal who cannot be questioned in court or have depositions taken concerning what his connection was to these individuals or what accusations can be made against them.
Your “list of names” is of no consequence in a court of law… What is of consequence is the evidence to prove innocence or guilt…
A “list” can be easily created if that is what you want.. Just add on the names from epstein’s cell phone contact list, names from the manifests of the “Lolita” flights, look at the videos and add the names of the pedophiles appearing in them.. Throw in the names of a few politicians for good measure, and “Voila’, suddenly you have your needed list”…
That is exactly what I said. The list of names needs evidence tied to each individual. Without that it is meaningless.
In fact it could allow some named persons to sue if there’s no evidence of wrong doing.
Dershowitz said he saw “the list” when he worked on one of Epstein’s cases. Bondi’s lying – someone told her to lie.
I wonder just which list Dershowitz saw?
I seriously doubt that epstein was stupid enough to keep a “list” of the pedophiles he was blackmailing…
.
You are opining on legal issues, yet apparently do not even know what a “pedophile” is — it’s a pervert who is sexually attracted to a prepubescent child. Does not apply here.
.
Are you not opining on a subject without all the information?
How do you know it does not apply here?
For all we know there was pedophilia.
Seems to me I recall the feds moving in and demolishing pretty much everything.
.
Maybe they f’d goats too. You can imagine anything. /s
.
Normally you are a better commenter here.
Not today.
Yep, exactly.
Pedophile doesn’t apply to adults who sexually abuse minors or rape them? That’s news to me and most people I know.
Do you know the ages of the victims on Epstein island? Were they all teens. You can only be referring to the girls that came forward. You don’t know what the desires of the perverts were or who was on that island to fulfill them.
Do you?
.
The original Florida case involved parents complaining re one 14-year-old who was solicited. There may have been one other that age (unclear, because testimony doesn’s specify). Everyone else was older.
.
Semantics. You’re beating it to death when there are definitely shades of such.
The ages of the victims are, of course, known by the fbi, who confiscated tons of evidence from epstein’s island, his ranch, and his townhouse in NYC.
But, The fbi now denies having the aforementioned evidence, which indicates the evidence in question has been destroyed and is no longer in existence.
As to the ages of the victims in the child porno videos, no doubt the child victim’s age could be determined fairly accurately by simply watching the videos in question, just like the adult pedophiles can be identified by watching the videos.
re: ages:
Apparently many of the girls that were recruited at Palm Beach were teens, minors, still in high school, but by the time they were sent to epstein’s island, many of them had reached the age of consent and were confirmed whores who were simply plying their trade..
The real problem re: epstein’s island, at least in my estimation, is the kids, the little children that were taken to the island to be tortured and sexually abused by epstein’s “clients”, who are now being protected by our own DOJ.
.
I haven’t come across anything indicating “little children” being forcibly taken to the island to be torture and abused. Do you have a cite for us to look at?
.
You get your info from MSNBCLOL?
That is the crucial element, child trafficking, child porn and child sexual abuse connected to Epstein and his clients.
The minor girls even though they may have willingly participated are under age to give consent. That too is a crime.
Never mind. (There is a principle involved.)
“It is more than likely they are still active pedophiles”
Yes. Pedophiles don’t change their stripes. It is considered to be an incurable psychiatric disorder. That is why they are required to register as Sex Offenders and the public has the right to be informed of their whereabouts, so they can make sure they don’t have unsupervised access to children. Of course Gavin Newsom & the CA Democrats are trying to normalize this perversion by decreasing the penalties for the sexual abuse of a child. It is also why the Left want the children to be groomed at an early age in public schools to be made aware of adult sexual practices and techniques. This makes it much harder to convict a pedophile because forensic psychologists use familiarity with adult sexual practices as one of the indicators to diagnose the sexual abuse of children. The goal: Defense attorney: “Children learn these things in grade school. You can’t prove she learned about these matters in my client’s home.”
IMO people who are trying to dismiss the Epstein industry as a thing of the past are naive. As a civilized society we are obligated to protect our children from these monsters.
Trump’s The Apprentice playing out. Pit 2 opposing views together and let them battle it out. Winner is …?
Plus he’s doing same thing between the ones who want to run for president in 2028. They’re battling it out for his recommendation.
.
I doubt that Donald Trump thinks this is some kind of game.
(Maybe some of the teewee audience does.)
.
Yep, “The Apprentice” is playing out..
But, this time bondi (the apprentice) is firing Trump (the boss).
If President Trump doesn’t “get a handle” on this situation, his recommendation may not be worth a plugged nickel
My thoughts.
The issue of the missing minute and changed meta data
is a purposely given misdirection to keep bring distraction and cause confusion from the main issue.
THIS IS THE MAIN ISSUE.
1. Was Epstein an intelligence asset? (It doesn’t necessarily even matter for who although it would help)
Answer: YES. There is already enough evidence easily findable that proves he was.
If the first question is answered then the next question naturally would be:
2. What was the purpose of Epstein as an intelligence asset?
Answer: There is already enough proof and testimony as well as the conviction of sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell that proves Epstein was used to trap wealthy and powerful men as well as Senators and Congressman in extremely compromising positions using children as bait to record them in the act of raping and molesting children.
These videos were then used as blackmail and extortion to force these people to do as they’re told or they would be exposed and punished with prison.
This would then lead to the inescapable conclusion and coming OUTRAGE from the American People.
That our US government was actively and purposefully aiding and abetting the blackmail and extortion of the wealthy and powerful in order to control the outcome of governmental decisions and the trillions at stake. And they were doing this using CHILDREN as fodder for the monsters they have recorded.
This knowledge and outrage would be so great that the Deep State as well as President Trump cannot allow this information out without it destroying the CIA, FBI, Senate, Congress, etc.
This is exactly why you and I are being pissed on and told to shut up and move along “nothing to see here” by the Trump administration.
They are afraid of the US citizens rising up and completely taking down the corrupt Intelligence Community, Senators, Congressman, Judges, and the wealthy and powerful on that list. It would be the catalyst that unites the American people as one with a purpose. They cannot allow the loss of control.
The reaction to potential loss of control is fear.
They fear losing control.
Because of this they are using the excuse of “National Security “ to lie and obfuscate the truth.
The problem is after the Deep State tried to destroy President Trump we didn’t think he would join in with them as he has.
That is what is disgusting and revolting to us as well as the fact we know justice is being denied.
This is a simply another dark day in history with a lot of dark days.
The rot, puke, corruption, swamp and outright evil will remain under President Trump.
Let it all Burn!!!
BURN, BABY, BURN!!!
Add in allegedly Mosad as a co-leader or plain ringleader of all of the above.
Actually, Mossad doesn’t publish or broadcast the names of their agents… If epstein was truly a Mossad agent, you would have never known about it.
All of this crap that epstein was a Mossad agent is nothing but speculation intended to blame our current situation on the Jews…
Is epstein a CIA agent??? Yep…
Excellent, well said
Yup this is it. You’ve entirely nailed it.
And I said somewhere else here to remember that for them to admit some things is then to admit others..
For them to admit and show us details about Epstein is for them to knock down the first domino of what they’ve built and have going on.
It would be the beginning of their ending.
If they showed us this list and spilled the beans, I mean the real story about Epstein, then the next obvious question is “Ok so who did he work for? where did all this dirt go and what did he do with it”.
So to admit these details about Epstein then opens up all these other cans of worms for the government.
We’re forgetting this detail that we all discussed here at length back when the topic was “Why is Bill Barr not doing anything???”
The main job for all these tools like Barr and Bondi is to protect the Establishment.. Protect the Bureau, Protect the hand that is feeding them, protect the Swamp.
THIS is it.
They are trying to walk that razor thin line of playing this game in such a way where they appease the taxpayers to keep up the appearance that we’ve got the control we’re supposed to have. AND then they need to protect what they’ve built- this global mafia– which what Epstein did, as you described, that played a huge role in how they got there.
For them to spill the beans on it all is to end and reveal what they’ve done and do.. as our government.
Now does anyone think they will really end all that?
Discussion on Newsmax last night that possibly Epstein working for the CIA–had info and video of foreign leaders, enough to blackmail them to keep them in our camp. My question-if that’s the case–it’s seems like the US was bending over for THEM!!!
I still don’t fully accept the Intel angle. It is entirely conceivable that he was his very own agent of debauchery and nothing else.
You make a good argument.
If there is a list, and there probably is.
I suspect there were more people involved than anyone knows.
They are probably powerful, influential people, elected or unelected, whose lives would be ruined if their names came out.
That’s a downside for them and their families.
But, is there such a list? Honestly, I have no way of knowing. But if Dan Bongino resigns over not publishing “the list”, then a list probably does exist.
My trust in the government is extremely low, regardless of their political affiliation.
Excellent analysis even though I do disagree with your last line. The timing is also suspect, which leads me to believe one of two things could be at play here. One is it came right after the BBB was signed. Is it possible that some of the knowledge contained there was used to “encourage” cooperation with getting the BBB signed? Also right after the geoengineered storms in Texas, which could be the Deep State’s salvo warning that they better not release it.
We must always remember that events we are unaware of can and do impact what happens, which has always been the primary reason for the blackmail – control. That said, it would not be without the realm of possibility for a major terror attack to be threatened if the information was released.
I do not think this is over. It’s even possible this whole controversy was manufactured to bring it back into the public awareness creating a demand – i.e. even democrats are demanding release.
I am willing to wait and see how it plays out.
Patience is a virtue.
Well said and factual with what we know.
If Nixon was removed for a coverup of a burglary to spy on the democrats and no one was raped, murdered or tortured for sexual pleasure, this coverup is a billion times worse.
Heads need to roll and many politicians need to rot in prison. Send them to the Venezuelan prison with the MS 13 rogues. Both are scum and deserve each other.
“They are afraid of the US citizens rising up and completely taking down the corrupt Intelligence Community, Senators, Congressman, Judges, and the wealthy and powerful on that list.”
You’re bigger than your britches if you think “citizens” today have that much resolve.
They, along with you, can’t “take” anything “down.”
They’ll bitch and moan at BEST, do stuff like shootin somebody at worst, and be Ineffective at any rate.
Look how American citizens rose up and took over after the revelation of the Russia hoax, or the CIA’s involvement in JFK assassination, or after the undeniable evidence that Biden was not running the White House or that staffers were using the auto pen to run this country without oversight.
We talk a lot. Most can’t even muscle the courage to call their representatives in Congress and give them hell. Believe it or not, THAT can be very successful.
Most can’t even get out and volunteer and vote in the midterms. Republicans are notorious for lazily sitting those out and neutering the power of the very people we work so hard to elect during the Presidential elections.
The trolls on here are Mark Anthony, trying to sway this forum of fickle conservative citizens to riot against their chosen president.
Then, what? Another more radical Democrat is elected during our division and outrage?
Careful, Treepers! Don’t fall prey to that.
Epstein and his cohorts need to be dealt with, but don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.
Keep cool heads. Look at the big picture. Separate the huge issues this country is dealing with after decades of uniparty corruption and Democrat globalist leadership. See how The Trump Administration is prioritizing and winning on the things that must come first to save this country. We don’t know all the facts. So far, Trump and his administration are doing an outstanding job amid huge obstacles and lots of enemies. I’m sticking with him even when I don’t agree with everything.
My guess is that the Epstein affair has international implications well beyond the involvement of Prince Andrew. Trump may be faced with the choice between kicking over that rock or achieving both foreign and domestic goals that he sees essential for the survival of the country. This may not be the case, but it may be. He may be wrong about the consequences of baring all in the Epstein case. I just don’t know and am rather glad not to have to make some choices.
International for sure, and maybe Epstein “happened” because the pre-existing rot in Europe has been able to survive for so long — because so many Europeans in power are neck-deep in it and would not survive the exposure.
I say this about Europe with confidence because (1) about 15 years ago a man I used to work with (down the hall) was arrested after flying to continental Europe to partake of that rot, and (2) for more than two years I lived in various parts of Europe (England to Turkey), and in that amount of time almost anybody can get at least a feel (so to speak) for one thing or another.
Perhaps the list will continue to be a tool, but this time for the good.
Main thing is the main thing. Epstein was an intelligence asset and was used to attract wealthy people and politicians using sex with children as bait. The main thing is the “scheme” was and continues under the guise of national security. MAGA wants the scheme exposed and ended with justice served. So long as the cover up continues, the scheme continues. Trump owns Epstein now.
.
Conviction for sex trafficking does not require any evidence pertaining to blackmail, a completely different crime.

<snipped>
The problem is after the Deep State tried to destroy President Trump we didn’t think he would join in with them as he has.

Ridiculous hysterics.
Nobody has enough information nor evidence to cast such dispersion upon President Trump.
Why are so many participants of this site suddenly on a fault-finding mission with the goal of destroying President Trump and his MAGA base?
Hmm?
If the unhappiness is genuine, why stay here plastering this website with outrageous diatribes?
Why not go out there and actually doing something about it, instead of pecking around on the internet like a broken record?
These psy-op promoters have been on a rant for DAYS trying to stoke a dumpster fire with all of the typical mainstream narratives.
Some have even stooped to repeatedly playing the CHILDREN card in an effort to garner support.
How much more transparent can any of this get?
Whatever.
Knock yourself out.
0.o
This is exactly my #1 reason for giving PDJT the benefit of the doubt, for now at least. How/why could he have expected to survive all the unabashed criticisms he’s practically live by since 2015? He has thrown mud at almost everybody, and nothing of any real substance has been thrown back at him throughout the entirety of the last 10 years.
I do not believe Trump is “in on this.” The evil CIA or other corrupt organization may have tricked him into “appearing” to be in on it. Surely, surely, after all he has been through, has sacrificed for us, even to the point of death, we can’t possibly believe this. Is he capable of being bamboozled? If the bamboozling took place by the CIA I would say yes, it is possible. They are rotten to the core and should be shut down and run out of town. Trump wants to do good for we the people. Let us not throw the baby out with the bath water. No one else will be as good for us as he is. Remember, he didn’t need to run for President – he is a billionaire. Everyone else can be bought but not him. Let us have more faith in him and pray that God will show him the path.
Boy, 900 posts! So we at CTH are being targeted by what the left considers this Epstein non-drop to be a weak spot. Does anyone see that they are using it to sow dissent among us. Not worth using that to stop the winning we are seeing. Don’t grab the rope!!
Because once you grab the rope they are throwing out, they’ve got you!
Sorry, I’ve been a Trumpy since the ride down the elevator and I’m downright angry at the gaslighting and cover up going on.
I would not be surprised if next we hear from the White House “ Epstein never existed, it’s all in your imagination.”
Were you so disposed during the Biden admin? Same level of anger and activist efforts to press that admin to get to the truth?
The moral principle is still in play, I’ll concede that. But it does raise the question why the rancor and persistence differs.
If this is such a depravity, what was done by all the folks on the sideline from the time Epstein was arrested to Jan 2025? Not much IMO. It’s a nice chatter item on boards – as it is now. But a delegated function just the same.
The anger isn’t off base. The self-righteousness at the current decibel level? Perhaps. If one wants to vent anger, then it’s not out-of-bounds to question “Well, what the fill in the blank did you do over all those intervening years?” Organize action groups? Badger political office holders? Hire PIs? etc., etc.
The hyper-ventilating on all of this does raise the question: other than the psychological balm of posting grand statements about the impending fall of the Republic – what have you done?
If you did do something – what results were achieved? Does that lead in certain direction of thought?
What have you done? you ask.
First of all, anyone here posting at this site has done a large amount of reading to stay informed enough to even find the place– what was work, while you are taking the time to educate yourself you are not out fishing, you are not doing the dishes or doing any of the gazillion things you should be doing in your life- you are doing the homework it takes in this day and age to be a part of the informed electorate.
AND I dare say that the size of the outrage is a good measure as to how smart the group of people are about what is going on– we’re not the brain dead half of America that did as we were told and followed orders blindly.
The biggest thing we did was got Donald Trump elected again, which was no small project.
There are a lot of people here that elected the person that ran on Draining The Swamp and now we expect it to happen since we gave him the job.
Yeah, Trump hasn’t done much in six months. We need to impeach him for this.
A citizen has that responsibility at all times.

I don’t give a you know what about how “smart” people are. Like many, after all the belly aching, I’m asking what was accomplished in the specific instance of Epstein since the events gained public attention years ago. “Trump was sent by us to clean it ujp” already tells me everything I need to know.
Your over-selling MAGA IMO. MAGA had a sizable impact on Trump’s re-election – that’s true. The buffoonery of Dem primary chicanery, the debacle of DEI policies and woke lecturing, the whole sideshow of LGBTQ+/trans in your face media and staged provocation, the very damaging impacts of FR/Dem driven inflation, the complete lack of Ukraine war transparency coupled to the known US/CIA sponsored Maidan Coup, the obvious mental impairment of Biden and subsequent exploitation, the documented Lawfare transgressions weaponizing the judicial system, the lack of habeas corpus rights for J6 defendants (and possible torture), the clearly obvious amateurish and shallow persona of Kamala, the whole Covid/Fauci assault on freedom and health, and on and on……..clearly had a huge impact on the 2024 election.
Bray at the moon all you want. Expectations are not the same thing as a strategy. All I see/read are various forms of threats – nothing really actionable in terms of the core problems.
And, yes, it’s fair to ask “Well, what have you done Phillip?” And the answer is not much more than any of you have. But at the least I have that awareness.
You’re missing the forest for the trees. It’s not about what could have been done previously, it’s about the lack of transparency now.
Treepers expected the lack of justice from the Biden administration would be cleaned up by Trump’ DOJ. But we aren’t getting that in the Epstein affair.
Especially since Trump doesn’t have a whole lot to do these days. Just sitting around smoking pot on the roof of the White House like Obama.

I’d be suspicious of the authenticity of anyone who refers to themselves as a “Trumpy”.
Sad thing is the 18 upvotes that comment has gotten.
Agreed, plus the plus 40 to USA first. I would like an AI diagnostic analysis of a trend I have noted of swift harsh criticism without balance or reflection on possible unknown factors ( there are many) or any acknowledging of the many successes. These comments are rapidly followed by such upvotes and comments like ” Let it burn” ” Let it all burn”
This is not just here, but every blog including liberal ones, same pattern and divisive certain and narrow comments.
Somebody wants hopelessness, division and animosity.
I would agree, as a very-long-time lurker, that the comment section seems overrun lately by very officious posters.
Aside from the collective CTH memory, it feels like we have little defense.
I, for one, would like to see a new crackdown on non-sourced “breaking” stories posted in comments, especially ones to which requests for “linky” is ignored. CTH can collapse if we are overrun by people who forget the little greenfootballs “lizard-linky” rubric.
We’ve got people multi-thread-spam-posting the same stuff 56 times a day.
What happened to “Wretchard” Richard Fernandez’s Belmont Club “3-post a thread” ethos? Some of you remember, I’m sure.
If you just SPAM post, as I’m seeing happen lately, don’t expect to get respect without “linky.”
It’s getting rough in here. I’m a politico-blog OG, and will start calling out “repito-posters” more and more. Please quit the comment smog, those of you who mean well. It causes an arthritic reaction, scrolling through spam.
Thanks –
Yes, first time I’ve seen that word used.

You’re a “Trumpy”?

First two letters are accurate followed by oll.
Sorry but this sounds like you have bought what the trolls are selling. Let us not go down so easily.
There is no Dissent. Any one with two brain cells to rub together could have seen this activity out of Bondi. She has no business as AG she is a jeb bush style Republican. Make a statement ,put your name on it, but don’t lift a finger to make any actual change. These people need to thrown out so new blood can get things done.
Yes- it’s obvious on this site particularly, and on conservative X. Lots of s**t stirrers trying to convince people to walk away, don’t support, don’t vote, etc . The LEFT has always been much much better at psy-ops than the Right. The Right is much better at falling for it.
And the left is much better at being sheep.
Yes and know. The very curt term “useless idiots” is there for a reason.
Why is it being interpreted out there that because we’re angry about the Epstein mess and how it’s being handled that we’re somehow weakened as a group?
Do you quit your job or walk away from your marriage over the differences in opinion that arise day in and day out?
We can be pissed off and still support our President for cripes sake.
“the Epstein mess” is a mess! I’m disappointed as I really wanted to see some public hangings and a few gov. scalps…but I cannot lose sight of the really big mess, which is our out of control judges who believe they have the authority to ride roughshod over the President’s administrative decisions and negate those decisions. THAT and the flagrant abusive decisions by blue state gov officials and leaders is the real problem for our country and cannot wait for address and correction. Epstein is dead. The other devils in the country are not. Keep you eye on the traitorous judges, mayors, and governors. Pray for ICE and let Epstein go — for now. No division, only solidarity will win this fight for the USA.
Good point.
I don’t watch any Pravda media except clips in our alternate media.
Are they jumping on this disagreement? I’ve seen nothing.
And if they aren’t jumping on this – why aren’t they?
Perhaps they know that if they proclaim it from the skis as “MAGA is fighting amongst itself and about to collapse,” when they know that isn’t really true, it might disincentivize their own shock troops.
Sorry but it is… except remember that 2 weeks ago this same group was convinced President Trump sold us out to a ME war. My advice… wait, watch and see what happens. Not TikTok just let this play out.
.
The subversives tried to get MAGA spun up on that one, and it didn’t work. Now they’re trying with fact-free pretend hysteria over imaginings about the Epstein matter.
.
Saw one comment on a conservative podcast asking “will Epsteingate be Trump’s Watergate?”
The subversives are always looking for another hyped up scandal to get rid of their political enemy.

Absolutely correct, Barb.

Well, a few high powered pundits and influencers near and dear to conservatives are using their platform to encourage us to grab the rope.
Boy, can our Sundance read a room or what!?
I think that right now Matt Gaetz is singing, “Making my way back to you, babe.”I think he’s coming back to Washington. I think President Trump is going to find a way to put him in as Attorney General. President Trump is crazy enough to do it.
.
On what basis do you believe that Matt Gaetz — who has negliible legal experience and no organizational management experience — would be a good choice?
.
Matt Gaetz has his own admitted boinked-a-teenager-who-looked-23-with-a-fake-ID problem. That is the reason he left government after having won his reelection handily.
Media is the only place he can find work without becoming a putrid lobbyist.
.
And some funky issues as well regarding his not-adopted “son”.
.
Crazy like a fox – or a Lion!
Anyone besides me starting to notice the building momentum of outrage, disgust, and deep perception of betrayal coming, not from The Oval Office, but from “We The People”? A dynamic that’s shaping up to be a cudgel The Left apparently thinks could actually damage Trump’s unbreakable bond with the MAGA base? The very same Leftoids calling MAGA a CULT and Trump’s presidency an elaborate scheme where morons like Schumer, AOC, and Jazzy Crockett claim Trump is only in the office to enrich his own portfolio and, of course, the holdings of a few billionaires?
So…WE THE PEOPLE going after CORRUPT GOVERNMENT isn’t just a Trump retribution thingy after all?
Huh….umkay

Mr. President,
Hard as it may be to admit, sometimes you are wrong.
Check the ego, change direction and move on.
Correct and sometimes it happens, we don’t hear anything about “warp speed” anymore once the jabs have been seen to have been a disaster.
I see this pop up a lot
SHAMEFUL
We had crap-tons of proof that the 2020 election was a total heist, but you seem to indicate Trump could have convinced the American people their government was trying to pare down (KILL OFF) the populace to manageable numbers of serfdom since they would have had 11-15 years to do it via lockdowns and quarantine if not for Trump’s “Warp Speed”, amiright? Day after day the press went after the guy, relentlessly hounding him as a buffoon and an idiot for his policy initiatives, while Fauci and Birx smirked and castigated his followers/MAGA base for using zinc, “horse paste”, and HCQ because they understood the grift…guessing you forgot that part
Correct me if I’m wrong, but this is YEAR #4….so you’ve got anywhere from 7-11 more til a “vaccine” that was never needed in the first place shows up, K?
DON’T EVEN TRY GOING THERE
I am utterly shocked that after having gotten Sessions, Barr, Comey and Wray so wrong, then enduring 4 years of targeting by biden/garland that POTUS Trump could be in this cesspool again with the DOJ and FBI!
It’s shocking, but really, you should not be shocked.
There are too many elected officials and other high-profile people whose reputations hang in the balance.
These people know each other.
They are going to do everything they can to protect themselves and their positions in society.

The theatrics continue, accomplishing multiple outcomes including:
Distractions from the seismics moving the US toward the precipice, including the sovereign debt and the biowarfare democide masquerading as “healthcare” with Replicons poised to flood into Americans’ bodies.
Rubbing our noses into the fact that we can’t do a thing about the outrageous lies and corruptions of government.
Of Media Personalities and Mutinies …
This latest distracting and damaging Epstein circus has been raging for nearly a week now. A completely unforced error by DOJ with a clumsy and unnecessary Streisand-effect memo. The base is a sustained uproar. Monumental accomplishments of this President are being overshadowed.
Until proven otherwise, I am not buying into the speculation that PDJT struck some secret deal to protect high level elite child rapists for political leverage.
This latest mess is the culmination of a completely inept and vapid AG, Fox News Personality Pam Bondi.
There has been no meaningful reform happening at DOJ. None whatsoever. The corporate media’s sustained silence constitutes their complete satisfaction.
There has been no meaningful prosecutions of high-level political criminals. Even though there are opportunities everywhere to do so. The ringleaders are all walking free, as she cherry picks nobody arsonists and street thugs. And spends endless segments on Fox News blathering on nonsense, night after night.
If the latest reports are true, then Bongino has brought the issue to a head in a very loud and unconventional way. Mutiny. Mutiny sometimes results in meaningful progress, but the mutineer almost always gets hanged. He’ll now need to go, too. But he’ll be lauded much later for sacrificing himself for a greater goal.
It is Pam Bondi that is and has been the core problem. She is an ineffective Attorney General. A do-nothing. She was a bad AG even before Bongino’s apparent mutiny.
At a minimum, Bongino’s mutiny has rendered Bondi’s political position as untenable. She has been fatally wounded politically, and from a credibility and respect standpoint has lost all capital.
PDJT needs to quickly lance the Pam Bondi boil off of his Administration. It is obscuring what has been an epic start to a great Presidency. She is not “doing a great job”, as PDJT usually loyally applauds his underlings. She stinks.
And now she is stinking up his Presidency with this latest mess and the resulting mutiny.
Not even Susie Wiles can deodorize this one from the President’s, and the Nation’s, noses.
This President has done too many amazing and wonderful things over just the first six months to allow her to cause any more damage.
Expel the mutineer (as you must), and lance this stinking boil, Mr. President.
It’s ALWAYS the coverup that gets you.
I’m tempted to say the same about Kash Patel at FBI, but at least we see there is an investigation of James Comey and John Brennan. Clapper and others need to be included in that probe.
Kash knows how to dig deep into this stuff–he did so brilliantly in the Russiagate fiasco.
in my humble opinion, Bongino was tricked into taking that job to get him off the radio. there are easily 500 people in our country that can do his job but there are not 500 people in our country that can draw 150,000 listeners five days a week to a radio show.
furthermore, we need him bringing up to protective escort for Trump on the radio. One more thing I will add is whoever recommended him to President Trump for this job is not his friend. They are working for the deep state.
Aside from the fact that Bongino’s performance at the FBI has been less than stellar and that the Epstein Case represents a foundational principle within MAGA, i.e., truth and transparency, a stable person doesn’t resign over such a thing. There are bigger fish to fry like retooling the FBI and uncovering all the other crap that went on, to wit: the Jan 6 bomber, the cozy relationship between active shooters and FBI “handlers”, the lack of interdiction of ANTIFA and BLM leaders, rioters and monetary sources. Frankly, the list is endless. So, sure, Epstein is important but wiser heads dictate you stick this out and keep reshaping that which has become so horribly disfigured. But at the end of the day, Bongino simply is not a serious candidate for the position he has been entrusted with.
Next up …
Some of your points are good, Masuda, but Bondi forced Bongino to lie to the public, and that stuck in his craw. The bad part is that he went along with it until he developed Buyer’s Remorse. Then he mutinied.
I wonder if his frustration is not only about the Epstein case. Maybe he is seeing that all other investigations you mentioned are not going anywhere either and he has had it.
imho I wish Bongino had never agreed to say what they forced him to say. He should have resigned whithout flipping out.
Him and Cash should have seen what a colossal mistake it was to say “nothing to see here etc”.
I personally never listened to Dan’s podcast, that being said, he knows or at least has had access to the files and sees it as a complete cover-up. He will need a way to earn a living post DC job, if he walks away now with his integrity in tact, he jumps right back into the PODCAST role and makes even more MONEY……It’s always about the money, every time……And who in the WH thinks it’s a good idea to slap 50% of your supporters with this nonsense? It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it……It could have been handled 1000 times better than Bondo Bondi and her nonsense…….Just a thought
Bongino had a great podcast. He put that career on hold to step up and try to help our country.
If he is being told to “stand down”, he would not take that very well and not for very long at all.
I don’t blame him for making a scene. I kind of expected him to do so.
If nothing else, his presence shined light on the issues with the DOJ.
Patel, Bongino and Mike Benz are good friends. So you know that they “know” the terrible secrets that have been hidden in plain site.
I just hope that one or both stay with the FBI long enough to make some real progress with their cases against Comey and Brennan.
The Empire of Lies….strikes once again!!!
Everyone here watched Bondi allow a fake witness in George Zimmerman’s trial in his supposed “girlfriend” who said she “couldn’t read” the letter Pam Bondi said that she wrote “because it was written in cursive.”
She was bought, and Trump knew it before he hired her.
.
Apparently you do not remember that the matter was turned over to Special Counsel Angela Corey. At that point it was out of Bondi’s hands. She was not the prosecutor.
.
Bondi was fully aware and fully supportive of this malicious prosecution. She even went to far as to personally intervene when the defense wanted to depose Ben Crump about the fake witness. She was in it up to her eyeballs.
.
Okay. You refer to brief on attorney work product actually written by Pam Koller.
.
So now we’ll get a Fourth “suicide” related to the Epstein files.
Monster thread from Raheem on Pam Bondi situation — Lots of inside details here.Could Matt Gaetz be installed via recess appointment.
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1943781884854411358.html
Being a State AG is not the same as being the DOJ AG….I don’t think she’s cut out for this job–and remember she wasn’t the first name for the post.
Trump’s Chief of Staff needs to see that this is too important an issue to MAGA to just move on from because it really looks like Bondi has put the President in a box and he can’t be boxed in by subordinates like this. This issue is identical to the JFK assassination–everyone has a theory and everyone has an opinion but unlike 1963, someone in alternative media will ferret out the truth.
Big mistake from a nearly flawless first 6 months.
Whoever wrote this post, what a rotten take on the Bongino situation. To call him mentally unstable because he cannot work for an attorney general covering up unspeakable crimes sounds like just the opposite. Again a really bad take. I’m surprised this came out of the Conservative treehouse.
Your take is as bad as President Trump’s when he responded to a question on Epstein: you mean we’re still talking about that? He is going to lose support over this. I just don’t know how much.
Trump is a business man and thinks in those terms. I don’t know enough about the details but it’s never wise to give your boss an ultimatum or create an either or situation. If he is just having a temper tantrum, well, suck it up son.
Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified
There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death.
Metadata embedded in the video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing tool Adobe Premiere Pro. The file appears to have been assembled from at least two source clips, saved multiple times, exported, and then uploaded to the DOJ’s website, where it was presented as “raw” footage.
Experts caution that it’s unclear what exactly was changed, and that the metadata does not prove deceptive manipulation. The video may have simply been processed for public release using available software, with no modifications beyond stitching together two clips. But the absence of a clear explanation for the processing of the file using professional editing software complicates the Justice Department’s narrative. In a case already clouded by suspicion, the ambiguity surrounding how the file was processed is likely to provide fresh fodder for conspiracy theories.
Some interesting details here:
https://www.wired.com/story/metadata-shows-the-dojs-raw-jeffrey-epstein-prison-video-was-likely-modified/
How about just scrap the “modified” version and view the “raw” video?
Bongino did tell us the video would be cleaned up……
I would recommend President Trump seek answers about Bondi as FLA AG and her shell game style which ensued with fake “girlfriend witness” and ended up with Zimmerman, an allegedly innocent man, in jail.
The answer is, President Trump, once you have reviewed PB’s flawed background (avoid advice from potentially biased friend Susie Wiles) she lacks moral integrity and will continue to hamper and drag down MAGA, you, and your team.
Reports of the Pam Bondi problem were available as early as November 2024. Cut your losses.
We do not have time to waste.

Excerpt:
“Let me be very clear. Florida AG Pam Bondi knew that her special prosecutor, Angela Corey, and her friend, Benjamin Crump, had manufactured an entirely false and fictitious witness against George Zimmerman.“
Is it too much to ask President Trump to generate a THOROUGH vetting of his nominees?
And do not rely on Susie Wiles who compromised us with this poor choice in the first place.
Excerpt:
“Many of you are probably reading this aspect of the story for the first time. However, what we do know with as much certainty as we knew going into the George Zimmerman trial, is that every element of the Deep State knows exactly what Pam Bondi did in Florida with that case in 2012 and 2013.
The Intelligence Community and the people who control the DOJ know every single detail of that corrupt Bondi timeline, complete with emails, call logs, transcripts, text messages, strategy meeting notes and more.
They know all of it, and they will leverage that as blackmail (and more) against her just as soon as President Trump starts to think Pam Bondi is going to make a difference.
Wrongful prosecution by the State, on the scale of manufacturing false witnesses, does not have a statute of limitations.“
DOES NOT HAVE A STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
.
So this is about being angry because Bondi did not prosecute Angela Corey, Crump and co. after the Zimmerman trial was over?
Zimmerman himself didn’t file a lawsuit until 2019, and it ultimately was dismissed. (At that point Bondi was no longer AG. And we actually do NOT know what she did or did not know; she’s not the brightest bulb.)
The kind of evidence required to come up with a cogent and plausible narrative is different from what is required for proof in court.
.
This is not about anger. This is about protecting the integrity of the DOJ and our country by not being blind to a compromised individual who could be influenced against our interests by the deep swamp.
Did you read the post I linked above?
.
Bondi was not the prosecutor in Zimmerman case. When Corey and co. went off the rails, what do you think as AG she was able to do? (The answer is “nothing”.)
.
Bon Jovi’s next task is to create as much martyrdom-drama as possible in an attempt to resurrect his $5m bobblehead career and save his marriage. MAGA-heads should note, but won’t, that he didn’t resign on initial principle i.e. as a reaction to the Epstein whitewash, but only when the cover-up process had so dismally failed. Laura Loomer has been unrelentingly hammering ‘Blondi’ on X clearly in an attempt to ‘Typhoid Mary’ her, thereby offering Trump a plausible, severable limb. Alas the disease has infected the entire body at this point.
Maybe Bondi needs to go? Remember Nikki Haley ripping statues down to appease Obama’s race baiting? Bondi did the same with Treyvon Martin. Is it true that Bondi and Susie Wiles are close?
I think my spidey senses may tell me Bongino isn’t pissed at Bondi or the establishment He is pissed his army of trusty the plan- podcast watchers were all under the impression the JE case would bring about hangings at GTMO, NAS Cuba.
Patel wore a punisher scarf and socks and sold them as merch. Solomon, who had men in black coats come to his mailbox says…In 10 days the 10 year criminal conspiracy of crossfire hurricane will show results. He says Bongino will cool off.
The Trust the plan freaks are saying 10 days of darkness-Q said…
Yep… “just give us two more weeks”…
“Solomon, who had men in black coats come to his mailbox”
I remember that 😂. Should’ve been his first clue he was being played!
“Tick f’g Tock” 🤦🏻♀️
So much for Trump voters being a cult. That goes for CTH readers, also.
I have zero confidence or trust in Bondi. She’s a Susie Wiles pick. Trump needs to dilute his loyalty to Wiles with other voices.
The American People demand accountability
Patel Joins the Revolt
Later Friday, The Daily Wire reported that FBI Director Kash Patel is siding with Bongino — and that he, too, is frustrated with Bondi and her refusal to release additional Epstein-related documents.
Next man up. Support President Trump.
I applaud Dan Bongino’s stance and agree with ShainS. I thought Pam Bondi was a bad choice from the beginning. From what I discern, she responded to the George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin issue in a way to further her political career instead of from a factual, principled stance. In the past she was a Jeb Bush Republican – which to me is a deep state RINO position. I interpret her history as hooking her wagon to whom she perceives as the current winner in order to further herself. IMO, she is a Trump loyalist because she thinks it will help HER – not because she is really committed to what MAGA stands for.
Is it possible that the Epstein case is being “closed” because the Trump administration is using the material in it to bribe some very bad actors in our government to give testimony against others?
This article makes Pam Bondi look bad, but through Sundance’s careful research we all knew this was going to be the case the moment she was nominated for the position given her history in Florida both in terms of the Epstein case and the Zimmerman case. Is there a possibility there would be exposure of her inside the Epstein file? Not as a pedophile but as someone who protected one or more of them?
If none of the above ideas are true, maybe this is just a case of Trump shutting down the Epstein case because he judges that too many people exposed all at once at this moment would be destructive of his overall goal of dismantling the deep state while trying to keep the US functioning and advancing…..
I do hope that bongino recovers his credibility……..and I think that if he returns to his podcast he will become …..and rightly so…….bondi’s biggest nightmare
At the peak of his popularity Dan Bongino had over 4 million followers for his podcasts. That’s a lot of people who believe you tell the truth, and it is a heavy burden when your job requires you to lie to the public because everything is political. Not just speak deceptively while a case is being developed, but actually burying crimes for the rich and powerful. The duplicity may be more than he can tolerate.
Pam is compromised. She helped the cover while in Florida. There was no way that she would shed light on a case she helped cover. She’s implicated. Bongino believes in principles that do not coalesce with DC. People don’t fully grasp what a spider web of self interest DC is. It’s not clear cut. I know for a fact that there are certain Congress members in the R party with criminal referrals given to DOJ and they won’t act on it because the members are “MAGA” and align with Trump and will help advance bills. We won’t see light in any of this. Best to move on and live our best life.
Dan should retire again, he’s had to deal with cancer and the Federal Government is never going to be honest, if they don’t want to be. If it were all about Dan’s government salary, he’d still be with the SS, they have plenty of desk jobs. Everyone has a boss, if you don’t agree, it’s time to move on, someone give him the $2 ‘FL Lotto’ winning lottery number for today.
When DJT was assembling his administration and he made DOJ/FBI and the DS appointments, SD pretty clearly said to not expect any changes in the IC/DS. I took this to heart. From the very beginning, I never thought anything would happen. No justice, no Epstein files, no DS arrests. Nothing. I have focused solely on what SD said should be our focus. The Economy. That has been my sole focus with zero expectations of anywhere else. Other than gas and the price of eggs, I am still waiting for any of this to reach my family personally. The “kitchen” table issues have not most Americans.
I do feel that if the economy was better, people were better off, jobs plentiful, people able to vacation this summer, college grad getting jobs, young families buying houses, no one would give 2 rats butts about any of this…but here we are. yes, I know the tariffs……
Epstien and his list is not my number 1 issue. I have been mentally mapping these types since the Franklin cover-up. I believe this creep worked for everyone. I also believe that I am smart enough to guess as to who around the world is procuring people and enjoying trafficking. It is a fact that people like being PDF files, taking advantage of males and females on drugs, kidnapping, debauchery, and money. I still have an uncomfortable feeling about Thatcher and Saville.
I used to sometimes go to a bar in my early 20s. The owner liked young boys and there were plenty hanging out at this place. It was not uncommon for a car to end up driving into the building. It was finally shut down. This guy was a groomer and there you go.
My point is, powerful people from around the world are involved with this crap. The English government cannot even deal with Pakistani grooming gangs, how in the heck does this Epstien thing get dealt with. Some of these people might not even be blackmailed, they are into this and want to be able to continue. I am more inclined towards that explanation.
Normal people do not think about trafficking or take place in it.
It is disgusting. This group of list people want to continue. Our administration probably has a lot of pressure. This is a can of worms I don’t think is no longer contained. I am going to watch how it plays out from the non PDF file faction. I am cheering for that crowd.
Let us play Guess the Predator in the open.

You can’t fight City Hall. The more things change the more they stay the same.
Why keep looking to the world for righteousness and justice ? Shouldn’t you know better by now ? Don’t you understand the power of immorality, the unflinching arrogance of the ego, the pathetic weakness of human character susceptible to every malidy of a fallen world.

President Trump must be full aware of how this is bothering the masses.
As noted on War Room this morning, he did not gaggle on the way to the plane, on the plane or coming off the plane.
I trust him to be vocal about the whole thing when they’ve decided how they want to proceed.
Bannon reportedly has 15 hours of taped interviews/conversations with Epstein. I wonder why he hasn’t put that out?
I imagine PT was on the Phone quite a bit coming back …..He was suppose to interview this weekend but all Press was canceled. I believe some of this is hitting him like a ton of bricks…..cause Bondi didn’t feel him in….I think she is a goner…..give it a couple of weeks. Personal reasons.
I hope that Bondi is gone and pray that we get someone better.
Ed Martin wouldn’t be bad. 😀
There’s no chance of that since he couldn’t get approved by the Senate for a lesser position. Thom Tillis, I believe, was one that stood a hard stand on him because of Martin’s questioning the MSM J6 narrative.
Bongino don’t care. He made three time s the money on his podcast and a lot less hassle. Plus his wife and family got uprooted which was not pleasant.I am not claiming anything here, he said all this since taking the job. He sees a real problem here leading to other real transparency issues later on down the line. He already said he aligns with what is good for US. To ignore this whole thing with Epstein is denying justice to victims, gives certain people rights WE do not have. The public sees this and so doesn’t Bongino.
My feeling is Trump is focused primarily on economic issues, trade, peace deals, etc. and releasing a list of names of people that had associations with Epstein but may or may not be guilty of anything beyond association risks damaging aspects of the agenda he’s working on. I think it’s about timing. Trump doesn’t think this is the right time. Bondi mishandled it badly IMO and Bongino and Patel are having a hard time dealing with the blowback.
I think this is spot on
Hey Puddy, I’m moving to a higher branch. The alligators crawling all over the trunk are getting on my nerves with their cacophony.
It the only way….save yourself!

No investigation = no reason to hide documents/no obstruction of justice. Pam does not know this? Trump ordered documents released. Is Pam disobeying orders? Ending the investigation ended her poker play. She “doesn’t have the cards”.
What if the Comey-Brennan announcement was made to mollify Bongino and to a lesser extent Patel? Seems to me like Tod Blanche is stepping in to defend Bondi.
When Bongino said he can confirm Epstein killed himself, was someone standing off camera pointing a gun at him?
He is basing that on no one entering the cell from video footage and one .report…..wasn’t anything revealing in the file…..the file IMO had been tampered with. I mean why would evidence be left for the new ADM.
Don’t blame Pam Bondi, it’s not her decision, if President Trump really wanted all Epstein material released … they would be released.
