Trump directs Pam Bondi to release some Epstein files amid MAGA backlash
- Donald Trump has asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to release "any and all pertinent" grand jury testimony related to Jeffrey Epstein, pending court approval.
- This directive follows weeks of public controversy surrounding the handling of the Epstein files and calls for increased transparency from prominent Republicans.
- Trump announced his request via a Truth Social post, with Pam Bondi confirming her readiness to move the court to unseal the transcripts.
- The request comes shortly after Trump declared his intention to sue The Wall Street Journal over a report detailing a bawdy birthday card he allegedly gave to Epstein.
- Trump claims The Wall Street Journal's story about the birthday card is "FAKE" and "false, malicious, and defamatory".
