Pam Bondi And The Fiery Epstein Exchanges She Had With Senators At Her Hearing

About this episode

On Oct. 7, Bondi faced intense questioning by Senate Democrats over what the Justice Department has done (or not done) in investigating Epstein’s financial records, flagged suspicious-activity reports, and whether photos of former President Trump with underage women were found among Epstein’s belongings. She refused to answer how many “suspicious activity reports” had been reviewed, declined to confirm whether any photos were recovered, and sidestepped detailed explanations of internal DOJ decisions. Bondi instead turned questions back on the motives or prior actions of the senators.


Bondi reaffirmed that the DOJ’s July decision to stop releasing additional Epstein-files remains in force, saying no “client list” has been found or is being made public. She criticized the senators for past resistance to releasing Epstein flight logs, accused some of accepting donations from associates of Epstein, and declined to elaborate on her internal deliberations — stressing legal and victim-privacy constraints as reasons for non-disclosure.

So yesterday, Pam Bondi sat before the Senate and she talked about a whole host of things. And of course, the topic of Jeffrey Epstein was front and center. And there was a lot of back and forth between Pam Bondi and the senators. And frankly, I found it all disgusting. It's all performative. All of it. It's not really trying to drill down to figure out what happened. It's not trying to get to the bottom of, you know,

what Epstein was up to. Instead, the senators are all looking for a gacha moment. And they hope that they can utilize that gacha moment as a political cudgel to use against their political enemies. And that's exactly why they're interested all of a sudden because they feel like they have some ground they can make up. But they'll get up here and they'll tell you that it's something completely different, right? That they care all of a sudden, that they want to bring justice to Jeffrey Epstein's victims. Well, you had your chance to do that for years. And all you did was ignore the topic and call people who are interested in the topic and who are actually doing the work crazy. But now you're gonna get up there and act self-righteous and hurl all these accusations at everybody else. And that might play with your base. But for the rest of us, it looks disgusting. And it looks like it's very self-serving. We've had all these hearings now since what July? Committees, this, that, the other thing,

and what's come of it? Not a damp thing. We don't even have the Alex accost to transcripts yet. Well, you have to go through that with a fine tooth comb and make sure that we don't have the information that's needed. It's all just a gigantic joke to these people and it's all about scoring political points. And that goes for both sides. And like I always say, that's how they weaponize the confusion. They want everybody to be confused about everything that went on, everything that's still going on. That way it's almost impossible to cut through what's real and what's fake. And that's how they thrive. And then you have these senators that get up there and pound bond you that get up there. And instead of doing anything productive, it's just a shit show. An absolute circus of allegations being flung around and a whole hell of a lot of what aboutism on top of it. So today, we're going to dive into an article from the New York Post talking about poundy and her hearing in front of the Senate that was yesterday. Headline, poundy lashes out at Dems in rowdy hearing

over the Epstein case, salacious remarks. This article was authored by Stephen Nelson. Attorney General, poundy went on offense Tuesday as Senate Democrats Grilder about the Jeffrey Epstein case and other matters. With Bondy at one point suggesting Senator Sheldon White House of Rhode Island might be concerned about embarrassing links to the late pedophile. Bondy sought to turn the tables on White House and Senator Dick Durbin during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing after facing months of criticism over her July 6 memo recommending against further public disclosures in the notorious sex traffickers case. How many of those treasuries suspicious activity reports did you or FBI Director Cash Patel investigate? White House asked Bondy about transactions made by Epstein that had been flagged by the banks. The Attorney General snapped back, Senator. I'm not sure if you're concerned because you took money, I believe, did you? From Reed Hoffman, one of Epstein's closest confidants,

not only once, but twice in 2018 and 2024. Well, that's true. But you realize, Miss Bondy, that Leon Black's son, one of Jeffrey Epstein's bigger confidants is part of the Trump administration. So how about we just save the what about is him because it's obvious that both sides were eating at a Jeffrey Epstein's trough. She added, did you ask former Attorney General, Merrick Garland, any of this over the last four years when he sat before you? And that's a legitimate point. That is certainly a legitimate point. The Biden administration didn't give one single dam about what was going on with Epstein and we all know that a CIA director, Bill Burns, was friendly with Epstein and even went to his house several times and was talking about how Epstein some kind of lifestyle coach. That's Biden's head of the CIA. Or how about Bill Richardson? Should we talk about him? So there's certainly a legitimate point to be made about the previous administration's not giving

one single dam about what went on. But save the what about is him. You're in control now, you're in power now. I don't care what the previous administrations did. Either you're going to step up and do the right thing or you're not. And you can try and put the blame wherever you want to put it, but it's not going to work. I mean, maybe for your base or whatever, but the vast majority of people see this bullshit for what it is. White House plowed on, there's been public reporting that Jeffrey Epstein showed people photos of President Trump with half naked young women. Do you know if the FBI found those photos in their search of Jeffrey Epstein safe or a premises or otherwise? Now, look, I've never seen those pictures, but would I be shocked if they existed? Hell no, I wouldn't be. And why not? Well, Trump was involved in that world, right? The modeling world was involved in the beauty pageants. So would it be that shocking if these two dudes were together when they were friendly and there was a girl that was half naked?

So we need some context with that kind of comment. You can't just fire off that comment and be like, well, was he with a half naked girl? Okay, where were they at? What was the situation, right? And all of that matters because if you don't do that and you don't be fully transparent about what you're talking about, you're going to give the quote-unquote other side, the ammunition they need to say, look, this is all just a political hijab. Vandy blasted them again. You know Senator White House, you sit here and make salacious remarks. Once again, trying to slander President Trump left and right. And you're the one who was taking money from one of Epstein's closest confidants and the Senator sitting right next to you, Durbin, tried to block the flight lugs from being released. I don't know about you folks, but I'm really tired of all this blame being thrown everywhere but it where it belongs. And that's what the people who are in charge. Enough is enough. You have the power right now, Pound Bondi, to change things. You have the power to walk directly into the DOJ and tell them you want to get rid of the NPA.

You have that power, nobody else. Now look, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that these senators are good people. I don't think they are. And the vast majority of them took Jeffrey Epstein's money and didn't give one single damn about the survivors while they were doing it. And then even afterwards, they acted like it wasn't a big deal. Some of them talked about how I'm not going to give the money back, Stacey Plaskett, I'm looking at you. Then you have other people who took money previously and they're like, well, that's a defun campaign. What do you want us to do now? Well, how about doing the right thing and giving the money back, donating it, something, but no, it's all performative. It's all, this is what you should be doing. Meanwhile, the people that are saying that are the ones that are over at Epstein's house, breaking bread with them. When Durbin spoke, Bondi pointed out that in 2023, the committee's top Democrat blocked an attempt by Senator Marshall Blackburn to force the disclosure of Epstein's flight logs. Why was the July 7th memo unsigned, Durbin asked?

Bondi retorted, why did you fight to not disclose the flight logs, Senator Durbin? I did not refuse, he claimed. One of the senators here wished to produce those logs. I asked her to put it in writing and she never did. So why didn't you? If it was that big of a deal, Senator Durbin and somebody brought it up, why are you waiting for somebody else to kick things into gear? Why don't you be the hero? Why don't you step up and say, hey, I'm going to be the guy that breaks this wide open? I'll tell you why because you never cared. And the only reason you care now is because you think you're going to win some political points by doing so. So you can miss me with all that self-righteous bullshit.

And I'm not going to let that record stand.

Trump has tried to move on from the Epstein controversy, calling it a democratic hoax designed to smear him for his socializing with the disgraced finance here in the 1990s and early 2000s. I mean, imagine having the audacity and the stones to call this shit a hoax, like for real, talk about a self-inflicted wound politically speaking. And of course, that rift is just widening. Look at what's going on with Marjorie Taylor Greene, talking about how she's being pressured, how the party's going after the whole thing. God forbid somebody has their own mind, right? God forbid somebody leaves the echo chamber. Now you're the enemy. Now you're a hostile force because you want the truth and your demanding transparency from the government. And somehow that makes you the bad guy. I mean, God forbid you go against the party, right? A bipartisan cohort in Congress has continued to seek more information about Epstein's links to powerful men, such as former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, former Harvard president Larry Summers,

and Microsoft Chief Bill Gates, with subpoenas and ensuring public disclosures by the Republican led house oversight committee. And all of those dudes plus more should be brought up and spoken to. And I think that Senator Kennedy was on the right path, talking about bringing up Howard Lutnik, and having him talk about what he knows, because obviously he knows a lot more than he led on. We all heard what he had to say recently. So yeah, Howard Lutnik should definitely be brought up. Along with all those other people that were just mentioned, Prince Andrew, Larry Summers, Bill Gates, Bill Clinton, everybody. And of course, some of them are being brought in, but it only scratches the surface. They're not going deep enough, because obviously there's a lot more here. If you go a little bit deeper below the surface, a lot of other people that could be brought in, what about the guards, Tovignol, and Michael Thomas? What about the person who was the lieutenant on shift that night? What about the EMS workers?

What about, see where I'm going with this? There's a lot of people that haven't even been thought about that should be brought up in front of Congress or the Senate, put on your oath and ask questions. And it's not because I think they were involved, but they might remember something or know something that advances the investigation overall. But instead, these people haven't even been spoken to. Certainly not on the record. Bondi and Durbin also tangled over the legal justification of Trump's decision to dispatch the National Guard to Chicago. Bondi highlighted the hundreds of homicides that have taken place in the windy city in recent years and noted that Patel and Deputy Attorney General. Todd Babybilly Blanche were in route to the city on Tuesday. Well, that's cool. Todd Blanche can show up down in Chicago. He's not busy waiting hand and foot on Glan Maxwell anymore. No more Chick-fil-A sandwiches for his buddy, Glan, huh? Well, that's nice. I wish you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump.

Bondi swiped at the ranking member. If you're not going to protect your citizens, President Trump will. Bondi deployed a similar line of attack against Senator Alex Padilla in response to a question about whether the administration is required to follow court orders temporarily blocking the deployment of troops to American cities. And the rest of the article just talks about the other things that we're going on during the hearing and they're not really relevant to the topic at hand. So we're just gonna end this article right here. Because it gives you everything you need to know about that hearing when it comes to Epstein anyway. And it was just a gigantic circus once again. Nothing ever gets accomplished. Just allegations thrown around a whole bunch of what aboutism, a bunch of finger pointing, but never any results. And that's exactly what we had yesterday with Pam Bondi in front of the Senate. And unfortunately, my guess is that's what we can expect moving forward.
