It was a surprising statement from Attorney General Pam Bondi as the Trump administration promises to release more files from its sex trafficking investigation of Jeffrey Epstein: The FBI, she said, was reviewing “tens of thousands of videos” of the wealthy financier “with children or child porn.”
The comment, made to reporters at the White House days after a similar remark to a stranger with a hidden camera, raised the stakes for President Donald Trump’s administration to prove it has in its possession previously unseen compelling evidence. That task is all the more pressing after an earlier document dump that Bondi hyped angered elements of Trump’s base by failing to deliver new bombshells and as administration officials who had promised to unlock supposed secrets of the so-called government “deep state” struggle to fulfill that pledge.
Yet weeks after Bondi’s remarks, it remains unclear what she was referring to.
The Associated Press spoke with lawyers and law enforcement officials in criminal cases of Epstein and socialite former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell who said they hadn’t seen and didn’t know of a trove of recordings like what Bondi described. Indictments and detention memos do not reference the existence of videos of Epstein with children, and neither was charged with possession of child sex abuse material even though that offense would have been much easier to prove than the sex trafficking counts they faced.

Absolutely not...stating a fact....
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
You don't mean, "including the children", right?
Release it, and let the chips fall where they may...we already know many of them are dirty
You make a good point.
“Are you advocating for public release of identifiable images of 12 year olds? “
Why not, they are adults now.
This is what we've all been asking for. Plus, it is obvious that CBP and ICE are ignoring these unlawful sanctuary laws and rounding up illegal aliens when discovered/reported. They are finally doing their job.
The so-called Alligator Alcatraz in Florida is a big deal. It is not a prison, but a detention/processing facility that will process and deport many many illegals. I believe other red states will learn and copy.
Also, a poster here mentioned that security systems can record thousands of hours where many are benign doorways, hallways, parking structures, etc. That would explain why it would take so long to find the incriminating files to be released.
Pam Bondi is on the job regarding sanctuary cities, counties, States. I believe that is President Trump's main directive to her. THE BIG PICTURE.
As I posted in the thread regarding the above lawsuits. I wonder what their defense will be.
Is it possible that she is waiting to release it all until the run up to the 2026 elections???
Because it is child pornography you would be releasing.
.
With all the names of powerful people world wide on Jeffrey Epstein’s list they are making sure they do not get released if so many accidents to ensue fast and everyone who has the list knows it.
Bondi has to find rout to make it seep out via connections to prevent back tracking.
Bondi was talking out her ass that first time with that comment. She had no idea what was even, “on her desk.” As someone who has followed Epstein since 2005, or so, I knew immediately it was a lie or total ignorance. It hasn’t improved.
It could get her killed.
She could be protecting herself. I know I would think long and hard about releasing that sort of information.
She could have been given an offer she can’t refuse.
More likely her initial statement was an exaggeration!
The question is
1. Willful? The why?
2. Done in ignorance of what was actually there! I’ll go with this until I have some more data that says otherwise
No doubt. Most people on the forum prefer to think poorly of anyone and everyone in government offices.
I've never wanted to see these alleged videos or expected them to be release publicly. All I want is for the people involved in criminal activity to be prosecuted.
If any videos exist, the prosecution should be straightforward.
We're told justice is coming. Does evidence exist or not? We keep getting mixed messages.
