Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) is demanding answers from Attorney General Pam Bondi for allegedly slow-walking the release of long-awaited files—including the infamous Jeffrey Epstein client list and records related to the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Bondi confirmed last week during a Fox News interview that she is actively reviewing the Epstein-related documents, along with other classified files on JFK and MLK.
“It’s sitting on my desk right now to review,” Bondi said. “That’s been a directive by President Trump. I’m reviewing that. I’m reviewing JFK files, MLK files. That’s all in the process of being reviewed because that was done at the directive of the President from all of these agencies.”
When asked whether she had uncovered any major scandals, Bondi remained cautious, responding, “Not yet.”
In a separate interview with conservative host Benny Johnson, Bondi doubled down, teasing that there is more to come but refusing to reveal details.
Benny Johnson: The scaring bad guy is something Kash has talked about a lot, and you have when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein and the people who are predators in this country.
They’ve been given a pass, and a lot of Americans think that these guys have had to pass for a long time and are still being protected right now. Where are we at with the Jeffrey Epstein list, the documents? Kash has made a lot of public statements about this. Where are we at?
Pam Bondi: I was briefed on that yesterday. I can’t talk about that publicly, but President Trump has given a very strong directive, and that’s going to be followed… A lot of documents.
...
Trump has already signed an executive order mandating the release of these classified files, but weeks have passed, and the documents are still not declassified.
Many are now placing blame on Rep. Pauline Luna, who was appointed as the chairwoman of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets.
Even General Michael Flynn weighed in on the controversy, taking to X to demand full transparency. “Rep. Luna RELEASE EVERYTHING AT ONCE. WE DON’T NEED A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE, WE NEED FULL TRANSPARENCY FROM THE USG.”
Rep. Luna quickly responded, pushing back on accusations that she was responsible for any delays.
“Hey Gen. Flynn, you of all people would know that I nor the committee have any declass authority. The declassification approval is done by WALTZ, TULSI, BONDI, and WH Council. You know this. WE do need transparency but we ALSO NEED PEOPLE LIKE YOU PUTTING OUT CORRECT INFO. :)"
...
Flynn acknowledged Luna’s response, stating: "Rep Luna, thank you very much for responding. I do appreciate it. I am fully aware of declass authorities. The POTUS already signed the order. At this stage, there is no more debating the classification. The files should be fully, 100 percent released without any redactions. The American people can take whatever it is we are to learn. We already know a lot.
"The people and the USG agencies that can’t take it are those who will be exposed because of what we will learn. We need accountability and no more long legislative processes and congressional investigations…we need DOGE like transparency. Again, many thanks for all you’re doing. You’re a fighter and we want you to keep fighting. There are very few in Congress who are willing to stick their necks out."
...
Amid growing public pressure, Rep. Luna personally confronted Bondi on social media, demanding answers.
“AG Pam Bondi, We saw over the weekend you are reviewing all files from JFK to Epstein! We are ALL anticipating their release! When will they be declassified and available to the public?”
...
In another post, Luna pushed even harder.
“On Feb 11 & Feb 19, House Oversight sent a letter to the DOJ asking for status on releasing the Epstein files as well as JFK etc. The DOJ has not responded. Reaching out on X because we can’t seem to get a response from the AG. AG Pam Bondi, what is the status of the documents? These documents were ordered to be declassified.”
On February 19, Rep. Luna, in her role as chairwoman of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, sent an official letter to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Attorney General Pam Bondi, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, and White House Counsel David Warrington, demanding updates on the declassification process.
She requested a briefing for the task force on February 26 regarding JFK files and another on March 17 for the RFK and MLK assassination records. Luna also formally asked for a specific timeline on when the documents Trump ordered declassified would be made available to both the Task Force and the public, as well as where they will be housed.
Additionally, on February 11, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) joined Rep. Luna in demanding briefings from various agencies on multiple classified matters, including:
The JFK, RFK, and MLK assassinations COVID-19 origins Unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) and unidentified submerged objects (USOs) 9/11 documents The full, unredacted Epstein client list
I mean, what is the hold-up? Release the Epstein files and let the chips fall where they may.
The American media can't - that's why it has to be clear and indisputable.
Ms Luna, believe it or not, there are more pressing matters than releasing old scandal information. Jeez, lighten up!
Maybe Bondi has to verify the lists are accurate before she releases it. And if she is going to bring charges against the pedos, takes time.
I’m with Luna, there’s been a lot of talking, but little action so far.
Be patient. We’re not the rats.
SHEESH. Turtles walk faster than these government officials. We the people can handle the TRUTH.
“””Ms Luna, believe it or not, there are more pressing matters than releasing old scandal information. Jeez, lighten up!”””
Yeah, I think there might be an issue or two to work on before this.
How about release it and then bring charges? I’m tired of not being able to speak about things because of an investigation. That was Christopher Wrey’s response to anything since he was head of the FBI.
A wave of corruption will soon be laid bare, and the Trump administration may be strategically orchestrating the rollout to hit with full force. We’re in a battle here—a war of truth—and timing the release of this information is key to shaping the public’s understanding and response.
How confident are you the information she has was not tampered with by the previous administration?
Never cared about the epstein files, never will. Just ramp up the deportations.
Not to mention this administration has been in place for less than TWO months.....gee people, let’s have a little patience.
I agree. Attorney General Bondi seems like a quality person. But it won’t hurt to apply a little gentle pressure to get those files released in a timely manner.
DOGE is using blitzkrieg tactics when it comes to fighting government waste. It would be nice to see that kind of action elsewhere, too
Bondi is playing the ‘sqirm for 3 days’ trick
Seeing who scurries and where
Bank accounts etc
“I mean, what is the hold-up? Release the Epstein files and let the chips fall where they may.”
The trouble with that is Trump may need some of those VOTES to pass the omnibus.
After that, release away.
You know, promises made, promises kept …
Bondi needs to have MANY conversations with many lawyers and I suspect a lot of folks are BEGGING not to be named
Trust The Plan!
4-D Chess!
