Attorney General Pam Bondi said on Fox News’ Mark Levin that she was fooled into thinking she had all the files related to investigations into disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

“I kept saying, there has to be more. There has to be more,” Bondi said. “I was assured that’s it.”

Epstein hung out with famous people, royalty, and other powerful elites. In 2019, while he was waiting to be tried for sex trafficking charges, he killed himself.

According to a whistleblower, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York is “sitting on thousands of pages of documents” they had not provided to Bondi. This was after Bondi released 100 pages of flight logs and Epstein’s contact lists. She is now going to the FBI to get more information.

Bondi vowed that Americans will eventually see “the full Epstein files.”

Bondi promised over the weekend to get “every document” regarding the late financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein following reports last week that an FBI field office was withholding “thousands” of them.

Bondi revealed in a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel that she had been told by sources that FBI agents in the New York field office were withholding “thousands” of Epstein-related documents after she requested that all materials related to the late convicted pedophile be turned over to her for eventual release.

In her letter, she did not blame Patel, who was sworn in as FBI Director on February 21, and acknowledged that her request for the documents predated his arrival.

“Before you came into office, I requested the full and complete files related to Jeffrey Epstein. In response to this request, I received approximately 200 pages of documents, which consisted primarily of flight logs, Epstein’s list of contacts, and a list of victims’ names and phone numbers,” she wrote.

“Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of these files. When you and I spoke yesterday, you were just as surprised as I was to learn this new information,” the Attorney General said, giving Patel a hard deadline of last Friday to obtain all requested records and deliver them to her office.

It’s not clear that the deadline was met, but during an appearance on Fox News with host Mark Levin over the weekend, Bondi was asked about the situation and how she planned to resolve it.

“I think the American people are very curious about who’s on this list or these lists. You’ve been doggedly trying to get all the information. And now we learn, thanks to you, that you have been stonewalled by people in New York. You want to explain that?” Levin asked.

“So, as you know, we released about 120 pages of documents. And I started asking for these documents right when I came into office, before Kash Patel was in there. So, I ended up getting about 120 pages,” Bondi began. “We carefully redacted them, of course, to be sure the 254 young girls, women who were victims of sex crimes and sex trafficking, their personal information was redacted and out of there to protect them.

“So I’m going through it and I kept saying, ‘There has to be more, there has to be more.’ I am assured that is it. Kash asked the same questions, assured there is no more,” Bondi, who previously served as the Florida attorney general, continued. “I found out this week that — a source told me New York, SDNY, they are sitting on thousands of pages of documents regarding Epstein, thousands. Thousands.

“And of course, you’ve seen the very strong letter. We will get everything. We will have it in our possession. We will redact it, of course, to protect grand jury information and confidential witnesses, but the American people have a right to know. And Donald Trump is the most transparent president in our nation’s history. So not only will America get the full Epstein files, they will get JFK, they’ll get Martin Luther King,” Bondi said, referencing an executive order by the president directing all information related to those cases be publicly released.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), who leads a bipartisan House panel that looks at classified documents in high-profile cases for release, including the Epstein files, was angry about Bondi’s Thursday document dump on social media.

“THIS IS NOT WHAT WE OR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ASKED FOR and a complete disappointment,” Luna posted on the social platform X. “GET US THE INFORMATION WE ASKED FOR!”

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) said the confusion created a bad day for the White House.

“It was not a good day for the administration. If you look at the traffic online over the Epstein release, I have never seen the left and the right come together in a moment on the debacle of what the Epstein files contained,” Moskowitz said Thursday on CNN’s “News Night.”
