The Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced at 9:30 on a Sunday evening of a July 4th holiday weekend that Jeffry Epstein had no client list and didn’t kill himself in prison. That sure doesn’t seem like transparency. Matter of fact, the Grok Artificial Intelligence application pretty much spells out what we all already know.

“Yes, evidence suggests we are being lied to about Epstein. AG Bondi claimed in February 2025 she had a ‘client list’ for review, but the July DOJ memo states no such list exists, no blackmail evidence, and no further charges. This contradiction, amid uncharged victims on video, points to a cover-up. Diverse sources confirm the inconsistency.” –  https://grok.com

Speculation is now running wild why the course reversal and this is another mark against the Trump Administration. This clearly is not a promise made and a promise kept. The common question the American public is asking, “What are they hiding and who are they covering for?”

Many people voted for Donald Trump to expose and prosecute the crimes and corruption of the very Democrats that so criminally and ruthlessly attacked him and others like General Michael Flynn. There is now some doubt that is going to ever happen and Americans are getting pissed!

Some people are trying to falsely promote a narrative that Epstein and Trump were close personal friends and business associates but there is no evidence of this. About the only positive thing Donald Trump may have taken away from Jeffrey Epstein in his relationship that lasted from 1980 to 2000 was their mutual love of having their own airplanes. This could explain Trunp’s failed airline company called the Trump Shuttle that operated from 1989 to 1992. He would later buy his Boeing 757-200 now dubbed “Trump Force One” in 2011 for around $100 million. It was originally known as “The Trump Organization’s Boeing 757” before Trump entered politics.

Where the narrative about Trump and Epstein friendship really falls apart is somewhere around the time rumors of Epstein’s charades with underage girls began in the early 2000’s. This was about the same time Trump banned him as a member of his exclusive Mar-a-Lago resort for reasons unspecified to the public. It is also worthy of note that both Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged groomer-recruiter Ghislaine Maxwell were both arrested and charged during the first Trump Administration. Any logical thinking individual would know that if either of them had any dirt on Donald Trump, their arrests would probably not have happened.

There is also a story that Biden’s DOJ also refused to release the list of the people who Jeffrey Epstein trafficked as underage girls and refused to release the infamous “client list”. Biden’s IRS then refunded $112 million to his estate and refused to release the names of his beneficiary(s). As much as $145 million that should have been paid out to his alleged victims instead went to people the Biden administration chose to protect.

And Elon Musk had an association with Epstein as well. There is a back story that Musk consulted Epstein before taking Tesla public on the stock market.

CONCLUSION:

I am very disappointed by President Donald Trump, A.G. Pam Bondi, and FBI Director Kash Patel today. They all have gone back on their word and violated a public trust. I can only think of two logical reasons why this has happened since I value all 3 of them as basically good people.

• They are afraid for their lives and the lives of their families due to anonymous threats.
• President Trump is following in the steps of former President Gerald Ford when he let former President Richard Nixon off the hook from prosecution. It is a well-known fact that former President Bill Clinton visited Epstein’s island multiple times.

I voted for Nixon as a new voter and yet I wanted him prosecuted for the Watergate Break-in and Cover-up. But President Ford, who had been his vice president, pardoned him saying he would “grant a full, free and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed.” At that time President Ford said it was to allow the nation to move on from this part of American history.

Having been a vendor visiting Illinois prison’s in the 1980’s, I have to say that old quote that reads, “There is no honor among thieves,” is not quite accurate. In the general population of prisons all the inmates, regardless of their crimes, universally hate pedophiles!

America will not be healed and made whole until the pedophiles of Epstein’s homes in New York and Florida as well as the Virgin Islands are brought to justice. One could say that is just my opinion but I think I am speaking for the majority of Americans both civilians walking free as well as those incarcerated inmates in America’s prisons.
