Trump urges MAGA supporters to forget about Epstein files – DW – 07/13/2025

A US Department of Justice and the FBI memo concluded that Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a client list involving high-profile associates. It frustrated Trump's supporters who criticized Attorney General Pam Bondi.
  • A joint DOJ–FBI memo reaffirmed that no “client list” of high-profile individuals existed and found no evidence Epstein blackmailed anyone.
  • MAGA hardliners (e.g., Alex Jones) and some Trump allies lash out at AG Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, demanding disclosures.
  • President Trump urged supporters to stop attacking his team over “Epstein Files,” calling Epstein “somebody nobody cares about” and insisting his administration is “PERFECT.”
  • Internal friction reportedly flared between Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino (who threatened to quit) and Bondi, though Trump insists DOJ/FBI are united.
  • Trump wants the FBI to refocus on his unproven 2020 election–fraud claims rather than “the same old…documents on Jeffrey Epstein.”

    This goes way beyond him. Don’t ever forget he’s a geriatric senile fucking puppet. He doesn’t call the shots. “They” do.

    When they yell and scream and froth at the mouth about the “deep state”- that’s how you know they are the deep state.

    And that state is not the United States, but a foreign entity. A foreign state, in fact.

      diddy, musk, hawkings, GATES (thats why hes been on a reinvention of his image streak, he probably knew for decades he would be implicated eventually, melinda was probably aware before the divorce, but she broke with him when it became too public. Also Ellen degeneres(suddenly fleeing to the UK when the diddy trial started/charged), both miley kunis and her SO fleeing to europe. plus various foreign government heads.

      Thing is, almost everyone implicated here is well over the age of 70 today. If the deep state ever really existed, they did a horrible job of passing on the baton, and now they’re all dying, one by one.
