The Justice Department claimed on Monday that Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list" and said no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public. This was despite promises from Attorney General Pam Bondi that had raised the expectations of conservative influencers and conspiracy theorists. The claims have been met with fury from the far-right who claim they have been strung along by the Trump administration. Bondi previously said in a Fox News interview earlier this year that such a document was “sitting on my desk” for review. It comes after a Trump...

Last week, after months of mounting pressure and speculation, the Department of Justice and FBI released what they thought would be the final word on the Epstein scandal. In a memo that many are calling a whitewash, the DOJ declared there’s no evidence of a client list, no blackmail network, and no coordinated effort to silence Epstein. The backlash was immediate and fierce. If the Trump administration thought this would put the controversy to rest, it was dead wrong. Instead of closing the book, the memo has only reignited public outrage and deepened suspicions that powerful people are still being...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna demands the appointment of a Special Counsel to expose the DOJ’s role in hiding Epstein files: “A Special Counsel is what the people are calling for. Give all the information..

Nov. 3, 2023 A Wall Street Journal investigation, using thousands of emails and schedules, uncovered new people who associated with Jeffrey Epstein for years after he was a convicted sex offender. The reporting revealed the kinds of favors he did—and threats he made—for those in his circle. Here are key articles from our investigation:

The FBI has officially closed its long-running investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sordid network—declaring that no charges will be brought against Prince Andrew, effectively clearing him for international travel after years of alleged self‑imposed exile. Dubbed “Air Miles Andy” for his taxpayer-funded shopping trips abroad during his tenure as UK trade envoy, Andrew dramatically halted international travel six years ago amid fears he could face arrest in the U.S. His only known post‑scandal trip came in 2022, flying to Bahrain in private — all while rumours mounted that he was using his connections to profit via his defunct Pitch@Palace enterprise, according...

Former primetime Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has claimed in a recent interview with Chris Cuomo that President Trump explained his rationale to him for why the Epstein Files must not be released.In the interview with News Nation, Cuomo asked O’Reilly what his view was on the Trump administration’s “botched” Epstein file rollout.O’Reilly responded, “I talked to President Trump, man-to-man, eye-to-eye, on St. Patrick’s Day about this. And he said, ‘There are a lot of names associated with Epstein that had nothing to do with Epstein’s conduct.”O’Reilly added, “They maybe had lunch with them or maybe had some correspondence for...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨BREAKING: Judicial Watch reports that the DOJ and FBI are still in the process of locating and reviewing Jeffrey Epstein-related records as part of their ongoing lawsuit: “They are sending out contradictory messages: telling the American people that no Epstein material will be released, while telling the federal court.. that the Epstein FOIA review is proceeding.” - Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch 8:29 AM · Jul 10, 2025

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨UNEARTHED: Epstein ADMITTED He 'Worked for CIA' as FBI Responds: 'You Will Get The Files...' youtube.com 9:05 AM · Jul 10, 2025

Famous lawyer and legal expert Alan Dershowitz revealed during an interview on pundit Sean Spicer’s program that he has seen the entire Epstein list and that the document is being suppressed to protect certain individuals. “Documents are being suppressed to protect individuals. I know the names of the individuals. I know why they’re being suppressed. I know who’s suppressing them. But I’m bound by confidentiality,” he said. This bombshell comes just 24 hours after both the FBI and the Department of Justice came out and said there is no “client list.” According to a memo that came out on Wednesday,...

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) said Wednesday he believes a client list associated with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein once existed but was “destroyed” by the Biden administration. “I think the files existed at one time,” Burchett said in an interview on NewsNation’s “On Balance” with host Leland Vittert. “I think they were destroyed in the previous administration.” The Justice Department (DOJ) released a memo earlier this week concluding that Epstein did not keep such a list that was allegedly used to blackmail high-profile individuals — contradicting conspiracy theories circulating for years that suggested otherwise.

It’s not just arguable — it’s undeniable — that the American people now, more than ever, have far more questions than answers about what really happened to Jeffrey Epstein. The government’s attempt to shut down that speculation with this so-called surveillance “proof” hasn’t just failed — it’s backfired spectacularly. Rather than restoring confidence, the video has ignited a firestorm of new doubt, outrage, and scrutiny. Instead of putting the matter to rest, it has become Exhibit A in a growing case that the truth about Epstein’s death remains buried under layers of contradiction, concealment, and institutional deflection. This isn’t closure....

I’m going to today play Paul Revere. “Big problems are coming. Big problems are coming.” President Trump has a problem, and he needs to hear about it and deal with it, before it gets out of control. I’m referring to the announcement that there is no Epstein list. I’m sorry, but no one is buying it. It looks silly. It looks arrogant. It looks like a cover-up. It looks like President Trump is protecting evil leaders in DC- who are being blackmailed by the Deep State. This is serious. Many of President Trump’s biggest supporters are angry, shocked and disillusioned...

The America First Party of Florida was officially recognized this month by the Florida Secretary of State, qualifying it as a minor party eligible to nominate candidates for the state ballot. Party leaders have also been recruiting candidates to run for the state legislature in the next election cycle. The party began organizing in March, encouraging Florida residents online to register under the “America First Party” label on voter registration applications. However, early efforts to obtain official recognition were reportedly delayed after the organization was told it needed to use a different three-letter identifier. Publicly available correspondence between the party...

Stephen K. Bannon, one of Elon Musk’s most vocal critics, said he was advising the president to cancel all of the tech billionaire’s contracts and launch several investigations into the world’s richest man. “They should initiate a formal investigation of his immigration status, because I am of the strong belief that he is an illegal alien, and he should be deported from the country immediately,” Mr. Bannon, the former top aide to President Trump who is now an influential ally and informal adviser, said in an interview. ...Mr. Bannon said the Trump administration should also investigate Mr. Musk’s drug use,...

In a bombshell interview with Eric Bolling on The Balance, former New York City Mayor and Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani stunned conservatives by publicly expressing deep frustration with key decisions made under the Trump-era Department of Justice and FBI. Giuliani — long viewed as a stalwart ally of the MAGA movement — admitted he is “very upset” with recent actions by officials at the Department of Justice and FBI. This comes after FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly appointed Steven Jensen to lead the coveted FBI Washington Field Office. According to the New York Times, Jensen “played a key role in...

Eh, this could get messy. Apparently, Steve Bannon was talking to media in Italy and said some rather confrontational things about Elon Musk. (CP) “I will have Elon Musk run out of here by Inauguration Day,” Bannon told the Italian daily Corriere della Sera this week. “He will not have a blue pass to the White House, he will not have full access to the White House, he will be like any other person.” “He is a truly evil guy, a very bad guy. I made it my personal thing to take this guy down,” Bannon added. “Before, because he...

Civil war has broken out within the MAGA Republicans. On the one side are the traditional MAGAs, who tend to be White, anti-immigrant, and less educated than the rest of the United States. They believe that the modern government’s protection of equal rights for women and minorities has ruined America, and they tend to want to isolate the U.S. from the rest of the world. They make up Trump’s voting base

There are many people who only became aware of Elon Musk after he dropped Ron DeSantis and took up a position in support of President Trump. Most of those people do not have a reference for Musk complying with the platform control demands of Brazil, France and Turkey [Durov (Telegram), and Pavlovski (Rumble) did not]. Most of those Pro-Elon people also do not have a reference for Musk claiming he and his legal team did not know former FBI Chief Legal Counsel James Baker was the legal counsel for Twitter at the time of the purchase, until after independent journalist...
