US President Donald Trump told the Justice Department late Thursday to provide “all things” about his former friend Jeffrey Epstein, a stigmatized sex offender who committed suicide in 2019, awaiting trial over federal charges of human trafficking of minor girls.
“Based on the outrageous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I asked Attorney General Pam Bondy to generate all relevant large ju court testimony, subject to court approval,” Trump said in a social media post late Thursday.
Following Trump’s announcement on social media, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondy replied, “We are ready to move through court tomorrow and seal our transcripts for the Great Jue Court.”
Such cases usually require court consent, but it is unclear whether Trump has approved the release of these records or when it will occur.
Trump’s order to the Justice Department has entered a new dimension as his administration struggles to fulfill its promise to release details of sex trafficking cases as the controversy over the handling of records from Jeffrey Epstein’s probe entered a new dimension Thursday.
It is also in a sexually provocative letter that the Wall Street Journal retained Trump’s name and was used in the 2003 record of Epstein’s 50th birthday.
Trump refused to draft the letter, deeming it “false, malicious, and honourable.”
The US leader has recently been rilized in the Epstein case, with many criticizing his Magazine supporters as “the weak” for more records from the Epstein probe.
Trump tried to downplay the Epstein incident
Trump’s strategy was to downplay the issue as his supporters accused the Justice Department of Public Disclosures of Epstein’s Sex Trafficking Inquiries.
On Tuesday, he told reporters, “I don’t understand what interest is or what charm is.”
Last week, the Justice Department and the FBI suddenly returned to the notion that there is an elite Epstein client list that took part in the trafficking of minor girls from wealthy New York financial operators.
Trump quickly defended Attorney General Pam Bondy and even boldly chided the reporter to ask about the documents.
Epstein Probe’s prosecutor has been fired
Meanwhile, it has been revealed that the Justice Department has fired Mohren Comey, the daughter of former FBI director James Comey and the daughter of federal prosecutors who worked on the case against Sean “Diddy” Combs and Jeffrey Epstein.
In a note to a colleague on Thursday, Comey wrote, “Fear is a tyrant’s tool and acts to restrain independent thinking.”
Mauren’s father, James Comey, was the FBI director when Trump took office in 2017.
Although no specific reason has been given for her termination, when White House spokesman Caroline Leavitt was asked about the possible appointment of a special prosecutor for a full investigation into federal sex trafficking cases, she confirmed that Trump did not support such a move.
“The president would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case, she said.
The political crisis caused by the Jeffrey Epstein incident was challenging for Trump in what analysts believe to be his own work.
For years, Trump has promoted conspiracy theory and canon-inspired propaganda, portraying himself as the only savior who can defeat the “deep state.”
