President Donald Trump mentioned Friday he’ll ask Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to some of his perceived political opponents, once more blasting Democrats following the discharge earlier this week of emails from the late Epstein that point out him.
“Now that the Democrats are using the Epstein Hoax, involving Democrats, not Republicans, to try and deflect from their disastrous SHUTDOWN, and all of their other failures, I will be asking A.G. Pam Bondi, and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s involvement and relationship with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, Chase, and many other people and institutions, to determine what was going on with them, and him,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The president has sought to dismiss questions over Epstein for months, pressuring Republicans to block a discharge petition within the US House forcing a vote on the discharge of the Justice Department’s Epstein information — which the House speaker has mentioned he’ll schedule for subsequent week.
“This is another Russia, Russia, Russia Scam, with all arrows pointing to the Democrats,” Trump wrote on Friday.
NCS has reached out to the Department of Justice and JP Morgan, in addition to the individuals Trump named, about his feedback.
