President Donald Trump on Saturday defended Attorney General Pam Bondi as doing a "fantastic job" after she came under fire from some Trump supporters over the Department of Justice’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

"What's going on with my ‘boys’ and, in some cases, ‘gals?' They’re all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB," Trump wrote in a lengthy post on Truth Social on Saturday. "We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s happening."

He referred to Epstein as the "guy who never dies," adding, "For years, it’s Epstein, over and over again."

He continued to question why people were "giving publicity to Files written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden administration."

So we have here Ghislaine locked up for what?

[ronnie raygun]

Might this be a reverse extortion program run by Trump? we have the files, we know who you are so now you will cooperate with us and our agenda

[Candor7]

This makes it look like PDJT is on the Epstein client list.

So what do we MAGA do, punt or insist?

There us a huge elephant in the room no one is talking about.

Sounds like PDJT wants to avoid a can of worms that would effect the mid terms.

Trump is definitely wrong about this. All the clients need to be held accountable.

[dforest]

It already has. Trump will not course correct as he should do at this point.

I remember Rush Limbaugh say that the “Only person who can hurt President Trump is President Trump.”

I guess that was right. I hope there is something to fix this.

[Luircin]

Precisely.

The MSM is using this as a wedge issue, and “conservatives” are gobbling it up like idiots.

So it goes.

I think I’ll take a break from politics for a few weeks until the next outrage de jour happens.

"How much time, energy, focus and oxygen do we allow to be sucked out of the work on fixing immigration, the economy, trade, education, wokeism, global unrest and upcoming political races — in exchange for nothing more than salacious headlines?"

We've seen how influencers and certain podcasters and politicians have so ginned up their congregations to seek retribution while ignoring strategy and thereby bleeding off the power capital necessary to accomplish the overriding important stuff.

Trump is definitely wrong about this. All the clients need to be held accountable.

You have a choice. Either deport millions of illegals and prevent the Democrats from using illegals and fraud to establish a permanent majority, OR go after a bunch of politicians who, if you remove them, will just be replaced by equally corrupt politicians.

[dforest]

The media hasn’t succeeded at anything. You give them too much credit.

This is the Trump admin’s fault. Nobody else did anything to them. The question is Why?

[Big E]

I hear you. The thing is, I bet those files have names of important, powerful people who are MAGA’s friends. I also bet a bunch of the names in those files are people who didn’t do anything wrong, other than have the bad luck to have rubbed elbows with Epstein at a party, or a minor business deal. These are not criminals, or pedophiles. They were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, despite being elites.

I’m certain that’s why the President is withholding the files. There are friends of MAGA who will be smeared by this, as well as progressive elites. And of course, I’m sure Trump’s name is in there, as he knew everyone in NYC. But again, that doesn’t make him a criminal just because he said hello to Epstein.

[Luircin]

This is so stupid.

Remember during the campaign when we were saying that the only concern was to remove the hoard of illegals that were giving Democrats power and that they intended to use to establish permanent control over us?

But instead of saving the country, the “principled conservatives” insist on blowing all our political capital on prosecuting a bunch of politicians who—even if they get removed after wasting millions of dollars and hours on lawyers and plea bargaining and taking our resources away from throwing illegals out of the country—will just be replaced by equally corrupt ones.

You want to save the country, you have to destroy their power base FIRST, and that means keeping a steady focus.

Pearl Harbor just happened and you people are whining that no one’s been convicted at Nuremberg yet.

[Luircin]

You are not immune to propaganda.

[nathanbedford]

Yes, you have proof that he is a convicted pederast, okay, that is not in dispute and, of course, that does not prove an international conspiracy.

To be fair, there is a reasonable inference to be drawn that he got a sweetheart sentence. Again, not proof of an international conspiracy. But there is another inference to be drawn from a quote of the prosecutor at the time who says that he was informed to go easy on Epstein because he "belongs to intelligence", or words to that effect.

Again, it is not exceptional for law enforcement to protect confidential informants. But still, you need more to get this to an international conspiracy involving the CIA, and Mossad.

What we have are inferences that so far are short of proof.

[Luircin]

I bet the files are either destroyed or tampered with. Remember how Biden’s DoJ had them for like, four years?

[nathanbedford]

We want to be careful here lest we be guilty of what the Germans have done to AFP in Germany that has made us so indignant which is to allege guilt by association.

[jmaroneps37]

Sorry Mister President but saying “Nobody cares about Epstein” is just not true.

The rodents and their fellow travelers Bannon, Jones, and Carlson care a lot.

To suck up to the left, they are the living breathing example of quislings willing to distract America from your MAGA Administration’s best six months of any POTUS in history.

Bannon, Jones, and Carlson are Schumer and Pelosi’s little helpers and heroes to the Surrender Monkeys here and at Rumble.

[Lockbox]

It’s not we don’t care about Jeffery Epstein, it’s we are concerned about the lack of consistency and transparency in law. Different rules for different people and some get the document drop to show they are bad people while others have the evidence hidden….. the lack of consistency and transparency!

Donald you of all people should understand this. Your home raided to recover government property you were entitled to process. On the other hand, Hillary’s illegal server just disappeared under a hammer. No raid, no server, no information. I can go on with Seth Rich, Hunter, Vince Foster, JFK, RFK. MLK….

That sums up our frustration and concern regarding the special people, special treatment policy.

[over3Owithabrain]

Bobgino should be fired. You don’t attack the Chief of Staff and give the President ultimatums.

[Big E]

“So if he’s not willing to address the evil, what does that make him?”

The best President since Ronald Reagan? Seriously, I don’t expect Trump to right every wrong, or perform miracles. Compared to the swamp, MAGA is not that big, and time moves fast. I’m happy he’s firing people. I don’t really expect indictments of Bill Gates, Jim Comey, John Brennan, Jill Biden, or any of the other criminal elites. For once thing, where would they be tried? In front of a jury of Democrats in DC or southern district of NY? What would be the point of holding the trial? Sure, I’d like to see the Epstein files, but maybe the President thinks the fallout will end up hurting MAGA as much as it hurts the evil-doers.

So far, I’ve gotten a bunch of fired Democrat bureaucrats, a closed border, enforcement of immigration laws, some interest in fair trade, and a law which keeps my taxes reasonable. I’m happy, but that’s me.
