Trump Defends Pam Bondi, Says Epstein Files Were “Made up” by Comey, Obama, and Biden – “I Think the Attorney General has Handled it Very Well”
Gateway Pundit ^ | Jul. 15, 2025 | by Jordan Conradson

President Trump on Tuesday doubled down on claims that the Epstein files were “made up” by Obama, former FBI Director James Comey, and Joe Biden as he defended Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Epstein case.

Trump responded to comments made by daughter-in-law Lara Trump that “There needs to be more transparency” with the Epstein documents, but Trump defended Pam Bondi, indicating that some of the allegations lack “credible evidence.”

“She’s really done a very good job, and I think that when you look at it, you’ll understand that,” he said.

He further told reporters that “these files were made up by Comey, they were made up by Obama, they were made up by Biden,” likening them to the Russia hoax.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump made similar comments in a statement responding to the drama between Pam Bondi and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino last week. “Why are we giving publicity to Files written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration, who conned the World with the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, 51 ‘Intelligence’ Agents, ‘THE LAPTOP FROM HELL,’ and more?” he asked.

This comes after the FBI and DOJ released a 2-page memo on Sunday concluding Jeffrey Epstein did not have a “client list” and that he committed suicide. The memo also suggested that no further Epstein documents would be released to the public.

Previously, Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, in February, hosted a big Epstein file release for a select group of MAGA influencers, handing them white binders that turned out to have nothing new inside. Bondi later claimed that she was misled by FBI agents and that “thousands of pages of documents” were withheld from her office after the dumpster fire of a release.

key statement at the end that he made

“... she’s handled it very well, and it’s going to be up to her whatever she thinks is credible, she should release.”

It’s getting worse. Something big is being hidden. Put up or shut up, enough of the nonsense.

What is meant by “made up”? Like making up fiction crime novel plots? She had a bunch of fake stories on her desk?

& I are introducing the Epstein Files Transparency Act –– a bipartisan bill to require the Attorney General to release the files within 30 days.

Rep. Massie is working on the rule to ensure there is a vote. The public deserves to know where every member

We all deserve to know what’s in the Epstein files, who’s implicated, and how deep this corruption goes.

Americans were promised justice and transparency.

We’re introducing a discharge petition to force a vote in the US House of Representatives on releasing the COMPLETE files.

Scapegoat.

Bondi is going to be on the hotseat later if someone starts looking into the Coverup.

I have been thinking yes, Trump has a right to enjoy his well earned victories. And should be honestly praised for all of them.

But IMO he should tone down or shut off the long, off the cuff remarks to reporters.

He can get in trouble. He can make promises Bondi, Bongino and others can’t keep.

Here’s a Richard Nixon idea from Watergate. He gave the order to release tens of thousands of words of documents and statements and transcripts. The mass market paperback books had a picture of him pointing to piles of sheets in binders.
“Get this out to the American people. All of it.” was his quote on the back.

Joke is, the key items were not disclosed.

Obviously there are people in those files that Trump has been asked to keep quiet..otherwise no reason to even say such a thing. and NO its NOT his name, Biden’s regime would have released it the next day after the debate so that’s not it

I can’t believe anyone would believe that the Epstein files weren’t tampered with during the Biden administration...and even back to the early days of discovery of the Epstein crimes.

Methinks that the Trumpster knows that there are Repubs as well as DemocRATz on that list, and that the exposure would throw a giant turd into his recent progress. I’m not worried that Trump is on the list, because if so, the slime-O-cRATz would have leaked that long ago.

How-so-um-ever, no one believes the FBI any more and they may as well turn over ALL knowledge and let the Obamastuff (which is much more putrid than the s-word) fall where it may. After all, even our putrid political parties cannot outslime Hollywood.

There is an old interview with Trump before politics where he said Epstein liked them young.

For the moment I continue to assume Trump wasn’t part of underage boinking . His name probably does show up since he was big on the New York scene.

So if he isn’t covering up for himself (or family members) then it has to be really bad. He is botching this so who would he do it for? Israel. England. Maybe US.

How do you know that? If everything was sealed as Dershowitz says and nobody had access to it, how did Brandon have access oh wise one?
