Trump Epstein Leaks Worsen as MAGA Cracks Up: “He Lame-Ducked Himself”
Former attorney general Pam Bondi testified behind closed doors Friday about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. She effectively let it be known that Todd Blanche, now acting AG, has been responsible for this debacle, creating a new target for Democrats to pursue that will be fraught for Trump. Bondi also went mum on how Trump instructed her to handle the Epstein files, basically declining to back Trump’s spin that he was very pro-transparency, raising still more questions for Democrats to pursue.
