Donald Trump’s administration took some heat on Sunday after it found that disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein did not, in fact, have a client list.The DOJ and the FBI have reportedly found there was no Epstein blackmail scheme, and that he died by his own hand. The findings are controversial among members of MAGA, especially right-wing conspiracy theorists among the group.
The reaction came quickly from observers.PatriotTakes, which tracks right-wing conduct, said in response, “In February, the Trump White House’s ‘Rapid Response 47’ account promoted the clip of Pam Bondi saying she had the Epstein list on her desk. Now the Trump administration is saying there is no Epstein client list.”
A popular MAGA influence with a vulgar user ID said, “MARCH: Pam Bondi says a ‘TRUCKLOAD’ of Epstein files just arrived. Thousands of pages. FBI reviewing them. JULY: DOJ says there’s NO client list. Suicide. Case closed. What happened to the truckload? What happened to the truth?”
Blue Georgia chimed in, “Axios says Trump’s DOJ and FBI concluded there is no Jeffrey Epstein client list. Pam Bondi 4 months ago: ‘It’s sitting on my desk right now.'”Trial lawyer Robert Barnes said, “What a joke. Total disgrace by @AGPamBondi @FBIDDBongino & @FBIDirectorKash as well as @realDonaldTrump to keep hiding the #EpsteinFiles from the American people pretending there is nobody else involved when we KNOW that is false.”
“Promises made, promises broken!” he added.
