Wed Jul 16 15:10:00 UTC 2025: **Trump Addresses Epstein Case Backlash, Hints at Releasing More Information**
Washington D.C. – Facing growing pressure, including from within his own party, President Donald Trump addressed the controversy surrounding the late Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting Attorney General Pam Bondi should release “whatever she thinks is credible” related to the case. The statement comes after Bondi’s department recently stated there was no evidence of an Epstein client list, contradicting earlier demands for transparency by Trump allies.
Trump has defended Bondi, stating she has handled the matter “very well,” and downplayed the ongoing interest in the case, calling it “sordid but boring.” However, key Republicans like House Speaker Mike Johnson and Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert have publicly called for greater transparency and even a special counsel to investigate Epstein’s crimes.
The pressure stems partly from past comments made by Bondi herself, initially suggesting she was reviewing an Epstein client list. This week, House Democrats attempted to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files, but were blocked by Republicans. Critics, particularly within the MAGA movement, believe information is being withheld to protect powerful figures potentially implicated in Epstein’s activities.
Epstein, a convicted sex offender, died in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
