United States Attorney General Pam Bondi gave an update on Friday concerning the infamous Jeffrey Epstein client list, stating that it is “sitting on my desk right now.” She also revealed she’s looking through the JFK and MLK files after the directives given by President Donald Trump at the start of his administration.
“It’s sitting on my desk right now to review,” Bondi said to ‘America Reports’ host John Roberts on Friday. “That’s been a directive by President Trump.” Both the JFK and MLK files are also being reviewed after Trump signed an executive order at the start of his second term that declassified them.
“That’s all in the process of being reviewed, because that was done at the directive of the president from all of these agencies,” Bondi remarked. She was then asked if she had “seen anything,” to which Bondi replied, “Not yet.”
One of the most anticipated facets of Trump’s second term in the White House was the possibility of the public finally getting to see who is on the client list contained in Epstein’s “black book.”
“Epstein, a 66-year-old millionaire financier with a private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands and mansions around the country, died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Bondi herself advocated for the release of the Epstein list in 2024, telling Sean Hannity at the time, ‘It should have come out a long time ago,'” Fox News said.
“Shortly after kicking off his second term, Trump signed an executive order to declassify files on the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert F. Kennedy and civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr.,” the report stated.
As the president put his signature down on the executive order in the Oval Office, he told the members of the press attending the event, “Everything will be revealed.”
While on the campaign trail in 2024, the then-presidential candidate promised that if he won a second term in the White House, he would declassify the documents, saying, When I return to the White House, I will declassify and unseal all JFK assassination-related documents. It’s been 60 years, time for the American people to know the TRUTH!”
In the early part of February, both the Director of National Intelligence and the attorney general hit the deadline for releasing the proposed plan for the declassification of the JFK files.
“The FBI announced shortly thereafter that it had uncovered thousands of records connected to the JFK assassination. Axios initially reported that the agency had released 2,400 records tied to the Nov. 22, 1963, assassination of Kennedy, which were not provided to the board that reviewed and disclosed the files,” Fox reported.
It’ll be interesting to find out if there’s anything contained in the files that we didn’t already know or if there are definitive answers about who killed JFK and why. Yes, we know Lee Harvey Oswald was involved, but we don’t know if he was the lone shooter, a patsy, or what.
The people of this country deserve to know the truth, in the name of governmental transparency.
