Trump Says Bondi Was ‘Fantastic’ At Hearing, Claims Epstein Scandal ‘Backfiring’ On Dems

Attorney General Pam Bondi repeats part of a question from a reporter that President Donald Trump could not hear as she speaks during a roundtable on criminal cartels in the State Dining Room of the White House, Thursday, Oct. 23, 2025, in Washington. US President Donald Trump on Thursday praised Attorney General Pam Bondi for her “fantastic” appearance before Congress in the face of many others considering the performance to have been unhinged.On Wednesday, Bondi shouted, sneered and launched a series of personal attacks as she faced questions from the House Judiciary Committee, largely about her Justice Department’s handling of files relating to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.Amid reports the president is disillusioned with his attorney general for failing to push through his agenda, Bondi repeatedly crow-barred praise of Trump into her responses, calling him “the greatest president in American history.”During one bizarre pivot, Bondi referenced how the Dow Jones Industrial Average had hit a record high, and lauded Trump for the achievement, as she fended off questions about Epstein.“Because Donald Trump – the Dow,” she blurted out in a moment that became an instant internet meme.But her grandstanding appears to have done enough to impress the president, at least according to a Trump post on Truth Social.“AG Pam Bondi, under intense fire from the Trump Deranged Radical Left Lunatics, was fantastic at yesterday’s Hearing on the never ending saga of Jeffrey Epstein, where the one thing that has been proven conclusively, much to their chagrin, was that President Donald J. Trump has been 100% exonerated of their ridiculous Russia, Russia, Russia type charges,” he wrote.Trump is referenced thousands of times in the Epstein documents released by the Justice Department, but has not been accused of wrongdoing by law enforcement.”He is the most transparent president in the nation’s history!” — Bondi is stammering as she attacks Democrats and tries to downplay Epstein as a distraction from the stock market pic.twitter.com/eqq5Bp39MP— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) February 11, 2026In his post, Trump went on to criticise “sanctimonious” Republican Representative Thomas Massie (Republican, Kentucky), who the president said “made a total fool of himself.” Bondi had called Massie “a failed politician” with “Trump derangement syndrome” as he pressed her on the Justice Department’s mishandling of redactions in the Epstein files.Trump continued that “nobody cared about Epstein when he was alive,” and that “they only cared about him when they thought he could create Political Harm to a very popular President who has brought our Country back from the brink of extinction, and very quickly, at that!”The president, without evidence, claimed that “this attempt by the Democrats to take away attention from tremendous Republican SUCCESS is backfiring badly.”Trump was close friends with Epstein, but has attempted to distance himself from the New York financier ever since Epstein’s conviction on a Florida prostitution charge in 2008 — a defence that has recently come under scrutiny.Lawmakers continue to ask questions about the scandal as the Trump administration is still holding back information about Epstein and his relationship with powerful figures.Related…’I Had No Idea’: Trump’s Epstein Timeline Is Getting ComplicatedPutin Aide Accuses Trump Of Breaching ‘Anchorage Agreement’ Over UkraineDonald Trump Is Freaking Out Over The Bad Bunny Show On Truth Social HuffPost UK – Athena2 – All Entries (Public) Read More
