Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
Epstein Chronicles. Pam Bondi is sitting in one of the
most powerful law enforcement positions in the country, and when
it comes to the Epstein Transparency Act, the one job
that actually matters here, she treats it like its background noise,
like it's optional, like it's something that you circle back
to after lunch if you're filling up to it. Meanwhile,
the people who were trafficked, abused, and dragged through hell
by Jeffrey Epstein are still waiting, still being told to
be patient, still being handled like a scheduling conflict instead
of human beings whose lives got detonated while the system
looked the other way. And now years later, that same
system is basically saying, hang tight, we're reviewing, reviewing what
the law already told you what to do. And it's
not complicated. The Epstein Transparency Act wasn't written in riddles.
There's no hidden meaning. It's not some abstract legal puzzle.
It says in plain English. Release. The files show the
word stop hiding behind redactions that look like someone spilled
ink on every page. That matters. That's it. That was
the assignment but instead, what do we get delays, excuses,
that same bureaucratic shrug where everything sounds official but nothing
actually happens, And somehow, somehow, the only people who seem
to consistently benefit from all this careful review are the
ones who are never supposed to be shielded in the
first place, the powerful ones, the connected ones, the ones
whose names just keep not showing up. What a coincidence, right,
and Bondy, Well, Bondy just keeps going press appearances, statements,
the whole act like everything's under control, like justice is
right around the corner. If we all just stay calm
and trust the process, that line should be retired permanently.
At this point. Trust the process is what you say
when you don't want people asking why the process isn't working, Because,
let's be honest, this isn't a delay anymore. Delay is
when something takes longer than expected. This this is avoidance.
This is dragging it out until people get tired, until
the story cools off, until accountability feels like old news
instead of an active demand. And the thing is, people
aren't stupid. They can see it. You can only say
we're working on it so many times before it starts
sounding like we're not going to do it unless we're
forced to, and that's exactly where this is headed. So yeah,
at some point you have to stop asking politely. At
some point you have to stop pretending that this is
just a backlog issue or a paperwork problem. At some
point you look at the Attorney General, someone whose entire
job is to enforce the law, and you ask the
obvious question, if she won't enforce this one, why she's
still there, Because we all know that this isn't just
about Epstein anymore. It's about whether anything tied to that
case is ever going to be handled right, whether the
people in charge are actually willing to pull the curtain back,
or if they're just going to keep standing in front
of it, smiling while everything that matters stays hidden behind them.
And if the answer is the second one, and right
now it sure looks like it is, then keeping her
in that position isn't just a bad look. It's a
part of the problem. Today's article is from The Daily
Mail and the headline Trump considers firing Pambondy over Attorney
General's handling of the Epstein files. This article was authored
by Stephen M. Lapour Pam Bondi should have been fired
the day she started her bullshit in front of Congress.
That's when the hammer should have dropped. She should have
been fired right along with that dute. The dute Howard Lutnick.
Donald Trump is reportedly discussed firing Attorney General Pam Bondy
over handling all of the Epstein files. The president has
considered replacing Bondi with EPA administrator and former Congressman leez Elden. However,
he has yet to make a final descis according to
both CNN and New York Times. Look, it's a long
time coming, but let's not act like Trump is having
some come to Jesus moment. Trump is looking for a scapegoat.
And if this warrnant Iran is wrapping up, like Trump's said,
it was debatable, But if it is, they know that
the Epstein files are gonna pop right back up, and
they're gonna have to, you know, have some kind of
strategy to deal with it. And it looks like the
strategy is gonna be to throw Pam Bondi under the bus.
And I am aokay with her losing her job. But
let's not act like this wasn't directed by the President.
He hasn't been shy about telling us that he's directing
the DOJ to do this or to do that, and
he's certainly been pretty vocal about using the DOJ to
go after people that might be as political enemies who
are connected to Epstein. But short of that Trump, in
this DOJ, they have no desire to really chase this story.
They have all the evidence they need, they have everything
they need, they choose not to pursue it. And one
of the best examples of this is the emails that
we're going through right now from Marie Villa Fauna to
the other lawyers that were involved in the first arrest
and prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein. Just take a look at
what Marievill Lafana says in those emails, and take a
look at how the game was played and how it
was Epstein's team leading the dance. And there's explicit language
in that MPa that makes that NPA null and void
if Jeffrey Epstein is in dereliction of it, and he
most certainly was, so the NPA could be thrown away tomorrow.
And that's something pound Bondi and the Trump administration could
do basically on their own. They just have to petition
the court and show the court that Epstein was in
dereliction of that NPA, and then that protection that's been
issued to everybody goes away. Notice nobody's talking about that,
and that's because they know how devastating it would be.
They understand that there's no narrative that gets them out
of that right. They understand that there's no Oh, well,
we can't do that because the court won't let us.
That's not the case. The court most certainly will let them,
they choose not to. In a statement to the Dely Mail,
Trump issued praise for Bondi. He did not deny the report.
Attorney General paum Bondi is a wonderful person, and she's
doing a good job. Well yeah, if he means protecting
Epstein's friends, she's doing a fantastic job. I mean, if
that's the case, she should be promoted and she shouldn't
be losing a gig right because she's doing a fantastic
job protecting those people. Meanwhile, the Epstein survivors, well that's
a whole different story. The Dealy Mails reached out to
Attorney General Bondie for comment, Though the Justice Department referred
both CNN and The New York Times to the president's statement.
The Times reporting was based on four people familiar with
the discussions. Now, how does the Times keep getting all
this access to Trump and his cabinet when supposedly Trump
and his cabinet hate the New York Times. Seems to
me somebody's trying to stir the pot. I wonder who
that somebody is. People connected the Bondi told the paper
that are accompanying the President on his visit to the
Supreme Court Wednesday prove Bondi still had Trump support. Trump
brought Bondi and Commerce Secretary Howard Ludnik to hear his
administration's defense of his executive order to overturn the constitutional
and statutory protection of birthright citizenship. You know what, I
have my doubts about this story. If I'm being real,
I have my doubts. And if he does end up
firing her, it's going to be in a scapegoat type
of way, because the Epstein files are so damaging, and
he knows that, and he knows that he has to
have somebody to blame. He can't take the heat, so
he has to have somebody to blame, right, and who
better than Pam Bondy. A source close to CNN said
that their relationship was business as usual in recent days.
Those close to the president said, however, that Bondi has
made Epstein a political liability for Trump, even among his
fervent magabase. That's bs. Trump has made it a political liability. Now,
Bondi has certainly helped out, and if she brought the matches, well,
I'll accept that. But Trump certainly brought the gasoline, and
boy did he set fire to it. We're talking a
three alarm blaze, right, And even though he was caught
with the matches, somebody else has to be responsible, right,
and that somebody, unfortunately, is going to be Pam Bondy.
He has also allegedly been critical of her communication skill
and reticence to attack the president's enemies. The attorney General
would the second major figure to depart the second Trump administration,
after Christy Nome was replaced by Mark Wayne Mullen as
DHS Secretary in early March. Bondi faces the Congressional subpoena
over the Epstein scandal after the committee passed a motion
by Republican Nancy Mace in March amid concerns the Justice
Department had failed to turn over all Epstein related documents. Well,
I don't think that's a concern. It's an absolute fact.
They have no desire to turn over the evidence none,
and they had to be forced to do it kicking
and screaming. And even then they missed the mark. And
it's Pam Bondi who's going to be left hold in
the bag, not Donald Trump. Republican Chairman James Comer wrote
in the cover letter of the subpoena on Tuesday that
the Committee still had questions over the Justice Department's handling
of the investigation into Epstein and his associates. Oh, James Comer, huh,
finally getting busy, performative, nonsensical, the guys, the moron. As
Attorney General, you're directly responsible for overseeing the Department's collection,
review and determination regarding the release of files pursuant to
the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the Committee therefore believes
that you possess valuable insight into these efforts. Cormer wrote, Well,
she's just going to get up there and do another performance, right,
You think she's going to be honest, truthful and forthcoming
now does that sound like the Pam Bondi that we know.
She's going to be evasive, combative, and an absolute nightmare
when her job really is to get up there and
let Congress know what's going on. But instead everything has
to be a circus, right, everything has to be a circus, confrontational,
combative and straight up stupid. And at this point it's
all performative. All these people are looking for clicks, and
I shit you not were being governed by influencers. These
aren't even serious people at this point. Hardline Republicans Tim Burchett,
Lauren Bobert, Michael Cloud, and Scott Perry broke ranks to
vote with Democrats to compel Bondy to appear so much courage,
so much brave. The Attorney General is the latest big
name to be snared by the Committee, which in February
grilled Bill and Hillary Clinton over their relationship with pedophile
and his co conspirator, Glenn Maxwell. Bondi has faced fury
from across the political spectrum over herbach release of the
Epstein files, including leaving victims' names unredacted while keeping secret
the names of alleged abusers. And They'll tell you that's
just a big accident, but I think it's by design.
I'm sorry to be so cynical, but at this point,
why should I give them any kind of trust? Why
should I, you know, give them the nod of approval.
I don't care how you got the answer. I want
to see the work. She clashed with lawmakers at a
Tens House Judiciary Committee hearing in February, deflecting questions about
the administration's performance by pointing to the doo soaring past
fifty thousand points. Maybe the next time that the Secretary
of Defense or Secretary of War or whatever we're call
on them nowadays, is in front of Congress, they can
tell us about how many Luboo boos were sold? Like
who gives a fuck about the doo in the context
of the conversation that was occurring holy deflection. Bondi promised
to release the file shortly after taking up leadership of
the DOJ, but the first tranch a document she disclosed
was already widely circulated. Pressure on Trump to release the
full files ratcheted up last year, eventually culminating in the
Epstein Transparency Act, a bipartisan bill that forced Justice Department
to publish the remaining files. Uh, what did they follow
that law? Or no? Is they didn't, So I don't
even know what this talk about. Oh they released the files?
Is even about because they most certainly did not. More
than three million Epstein related documents were finally released at
the end of January, including new mentions of Trump as
well as Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik. Lutnik agreed to testify
after a new photo emerged showing him with Epstein on
the pedophiles Private Island comer announced earlier this month. Trump
meanwhile declared Lutnik a very innocent guy. He was ultimately
subpoenaed after Mace threatened to force a formal vote. Well,
it would seem to me that the writing's on the
wall for Paum Bondi and that she is going to
be served up as a sacrifice and the scapegoat as
soon as this Iran conflict comes to an end, and
that'll be their next move in trying to keep this
cover up going. And I'm not really in the prediction game,
but that is my prediction when it comes to Bondi,
because I think that Trump always needs that fall guy,
or in this case, that fall gal and that's exactly
what Bondi is set up as, so like usual, we'll
see where it all goes, and when we have some
more information about what the deal is, we'll get that
added to the catalog. All the information that goes with
this episode can be found in the description box.
