Trump Backs Pam Bondi Amid Epstein Scandal; Elon Musk Urges File Release

US President Donald Trump has defended Pam Bondi, America’s highest-ranking prosecutor, amid growing calls from the president’s supporters for her to resign.

In a lengthy social media post, Trump hit out at complaints from critics who have accused Bondi of withholding more information about the death of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his so-called client list.

The mounting attacks from critics come after a memo released by Bondi’s Justice Department last week failed to deliver what many had hoped would be major revelations in the Epstein case.

“Let Pam Bondi do her job,” Trump wrote in all caps, encouraging his supporters to “not waste time and energy” on Epstein.

Then, Elon Musk today urged the US administration to release the files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

“Seriously. He said ‘Epstein’ half a dozen times while telling everyone to stop talking about Epstein. Just release the files as promised,” Elon Musk wrote on X while replying to a user.
