Pam Bondi Heads To DC For A Closed Door Epstein Related Meeting With Congress (5/29/26) · The Vault: The Epstein Files

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Epstein Chronicles. About a year ago, we heard from Pam
• 0:06
  Bondy about how she had the Epstein list on her
• 0:09
  desk and about how there were truckloads of information that
• 0:13
  were making their way from various parts of the DOJ
• 0:16
  to an area where they could go through those documents
• 0:20
  as they were figuring out what they were going to release,
• 0:23
  and throughout the whole process, Pam Bondy made a lot
• 0:25
  of big promises, a lot of promises about investigations, about
• 0:30
  transparency and about going after people that were allegedly involved
• 0:35
  with Jeffrey Epstein. And of course none of that came
• 0:38
  to fruition, and instead they chose to go the other way.
• 0:41
  They chose to go the cover up route instead of
• 0:44
  just shooting the American people straight like they said, they
• 0:46
  were going to do, only a reverse course and decide
• 0:50
  not to be transparent or at least as transparent as
• 0:53
  they promised. Well, now, Pam Bondy, who was the AG
• 0:56
  at the time and who was overseeing all of this,
• 1:00
  she's now gonna speak to Congress today. But here's the caveat.
• 1:05
  She's not gonna be under oath and we're certainly not
• 1:08
  gonna be able to see the deposition itself as far
• 1:11
  as video or anything like that, so we're gonna have
• 1:14
  to rely on what they tell us, And like most
• 1:16
  of you, I don't have very much faith in them
• 1:18
  telling us the truth or doing the right thing, especially
• 1:22
  when they know there's no record of their bullshit. So yeah,
• 1:24
  it's great that Pam Bondy is gonna appear before Congress today,
• 1:28
  but what's really gonna come of it? Because I have
• 1:30
  no confidence that Pam Bondy has any desire to give
• 1:34
  anybody even anything close to the truth. She could have
• 1:38
  done that previously, what makes anyone think she wants to
• 1:41
  do it now. Maybe she'll tell us about the dal
• 1:44
  though she seems to want to talk about the stock market,
• 1:47
  so maybe she'll have something to say about that. But
• 1:50
  as far as Jeffrey Epstein goes and his enablers and
• 1:54
  the cover up that she helped manage and create, I
• 1:58
  doubt she's gonna have a word to say about that.
• 2:00
  And that brings us to our article. Today's article was
• 2:03
  published by CBS News and the headline Pambondi to testify
• 2:07
  behind closed doors and House Committee is Epstein probe today.
• 2:11
  This article was authored by Graham Kates. Fifteen months after
• 2:15
  saying a list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients was sitting on
• 2:18
  my desk right now, and four months after overseeing the
• 2:22
  release of millions of associated documents, Former Attorney General Pambondi
• 2:27
  will testify before a House committee on Friday about her
• 2:30
  handling of the so called Epstein files? What does that mean?
• 2:35
  So called? Are they not the Epstein files? What should
• 2:38
  we call them? The make believe Epstein files? The might
• 2:42
  be Epstein files, the could be Epstein files? How about
• 2:46
  we just call them what they are, the Epstein files.
• 2:49
  Bondie's closed door interview in the ongoing congressional investigation into
• 2:53
  Epstein is likely to have a different focus then previous
• 2:56
  high profiles sit downs in the probe the House Oversight Committe.
• 3:00
  He has questioned the likes a former President Bill Clinton
• 3:03
  and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik about their relationships with the
• 3:07
  deceased former sex abuser. But Bondi was not among Epstein's
• 3:11
  globe trotting network of powerful friends. No she wasn't. Instead,
• 3:16
  she was helping maintain and run this cover up. I
• 3:21
  think it's pretty obvious that there's a cover up under way.
• 3:24
  And I'll tell you what, the whole entire war in
• 3:27
  Iran has done exactly what they wanted it to do.
• 3:33
  Talk about taking the spotlight off of Epstein and putting
• 3:36
  it on some contrived, bullshit war, But boy was it effective.
• 3:43
  And that's what they do. That's the kind of shit
• 3:46
  that's been done throughout history time and time again. You
• 3:50
  have a domestic issue, let's cause an international one, and
• 3:55
  then people, of course they're gonna rally around the flag,
• 3:57
  They're going to rally around the country. I don't blame
• 4:00
  people for that. I blame the administration for leading people
• 4:04
  into that, leading people into this disaster over in Iran,
• 4:08
  where we've just lost a whole bunch of face. A ceasefire, Really,
• 4:12
  what did we gain exactly? Does anyone really think that
• 4:16
  the Iranians are going to stop trying to make nuclear weapons? Oh, well,
• 4:21
  we have a deal in place, Oh okay, cool? Great.
• 4:24
  The whole entire thing, in my opinion, especially now, is
• 4:28
  that it was contrived and that there was no reason,
• 4:31
  no justification for what occurred. Now, Look, don't take that
• 4:36
  as me thinking or saying that the Iranian regime was
• 4:40
  filled with great people, and that there are people that
• 4:43
  could be trusted. They're not. But I don't think that
• 4:46
  there was any justification for what happened, especially considering where
• 4:51
  we're at now. What exactly was gained? Now, if they
• 4:55
  would have destroyed the regime and knocked the IRGC out
• 4:58
  of control, that would have been worthwhile. This is not.
• 5:03
  I mean, I'm paying five dollars and fifty cents a
• 5:07
  gallon of gas in some places, close to six dollars
• 5:09
  here in Vegas, and for what There's been no tangible
• 5:13
  changes as far as the region goes. In fact, everything's
• 5:18
  much worse. So what exactly was accomplished besides killing the
• 5:23
  Epstein story? Instead, she faced more than a year of
• 5:30
  withering criticism for handling of the Department of Justice Epstein
• 5:34
  probe and the rollout of documents after President Trump signed
• 5:38
  the Epstein File Transparency Act that he had to be
• 5:41
  forced to sign. Let's not act like President Trump was
• 5:45
  a driving force behind that. He signed that shit because
• 5:48
  he had to. That's it. That's the only reason Donald
• 5:51
  Trump could have bypassed all this nonsense and release the
• 5:54
  files on his own. But that was always the carrot.
• 5:56
  Right after he got elected, he pulled back that carrot
• 6:00
  and hit us with the stick. Bondi initially pledged to
• 6:05
  release files related to Epstein, telling a Fox News interviewer
• 6:08
  shortly after she took office in February of twenty twenty
• 6:11
  five that a client list was sitting on my desk
• 6:14
  right now to review. And I told you at the time,
• 6:17
  she was lying, There's never been a client list. That's
• 6:20
  always been part of the misdirection. Do you really think
• 6:24
  an operation like this would have a client list. Look,
• 6:26
  Epstein and Maxwell certainly reprehensible, but they weren't stupid. They
• 6:31
  weren't dumb people, and they knew exactly what they were
• 6:35
  doing when it comes to running this operation. And if
• 6:39
  you think people like that are going to have a
• 6:40
  client list sitting around for people to find, I don't
• 6:43
  know what to tell you. In July twenty twenty five,
• 6:48
  the Justice Department published a memo concluding that there was
• 6:51
  no client list and that no further disclosure would be
• 6:54
  appropriate or warranted. Imagine saying that, and not only that,
• 6:59
  but then Trump went on the warpath, calling everybody that
• 7:03
  disagreed with them traders, saying anybody talking about Epstein was
• 7:06
  a trader and just having a generational crash out over
• 7:10
  the fact that more Epstein information was going to be released.
• 7:15
  And this is all after he himself used that topic
• 7:18
  during the campaign to get elected, and then he has
• 7:21
  the audacity to call anybody else a trader, buddy, take
• 7:25
  a look in the mirror. She had faced months if
• 7:28
  heated criticism from members of Congress and both parties over
• 7:32
  the Justice Department's efforts to comply with the Epstein File
• 7:35
  Transparency Act. It required the release of the Justice Department's
• 7:39
  records related to federal investigations into Epstein. And as accomplice,
• 7:44
  you mean, co conspirator, right general, all around scusbag and
• 7:49
  bipedal serpent, that's what you mean, right within thirty days
• 7:53
  a deadline the Department did not meet. Well, it was
• 7:57
  never their goal to meet it. They were never going
• 7:59
  to meet it. They were never going to meet the
• 8:01
  deadline that was set for them. And I think that
• 8:03
  was pretty obvious from the very beginning. About three million
• 8:06
  pages the documents were ultimately published, but the total is
• 8:10
  only about half of the files kept by the Justice Department.
• 8:14
  It said the remaining were withheld for a variety of reasons,
• 8:17
  including efforts to protect survivors personal information and to avoid
• 8:21
  jeopardizing active federal investigations, which is very weird considering nobody's
• 8:27
  privacy was respected and we were told that there were
• 8:30
  no more investigations. So what do they mean by jeopardizing
• 8:34
  active federal investigations. That's something they should explain, and it's
• 8:40
  something that Congress should be asking about. The President fired
• 8:45
  Bondi in April. In announcing the move, he called her
• 8:47
  a great American patriot, despite his behind the scenes frustration
• 8:51
  with her performance on the job. She was originally scheduled
• 8:54
  to appear before the Oversight Committee under subpoena on April fourteenth,
• 8:59
  but the Justice Department canceled her interview because she had
• 9:02
  been removed from her post as Attorney General. And it's
• 9:06
  so wild. If they have nothing to hide, nothing to fear,
• 9:10
  why are they jumping through so many hoops to try
• 9:12
  to get Pam Bondy not to speak to Congress. What
• 9:16
  do they have to gain by that? Oh, that's right,
• 9:19
  silence and the cover up. Moving forward. Bondi's testimony comes
• 9:24
  just days after revealing to CBS News that she's undergoing
• 9:28
  treatment for thyroid cancer. She said that She was diagnosed
• 9:32
  after leaving the Justice Department and recently underwent surgery as
• 9:36
  part of her treatment. YO. Look, I don't wish cancer
• 9:39
  on anybody, and that includes Pam Bondy, and I hope
• 9:43
  that her treatment goes well and I hope that her
• 9:47
  cancer is sent into remission. I don't have a bone
• 9:51
  to pick or an axe to grind with any of
• 9:53
  these people. This isn't about me hating them or disagreeing
• 9:58
  with their politics. This is about them covering up Jeffrey
• 10:02
  Epstein's bullshit. But that certainly doesn't mean that I wish
• 10:06
  anybody gets cancer or that they're sick. That said, it
• 10:10
  shouldn't be an excuse for Pam Bondy not to talk
• 10:13
  about Epstein, not to talk about what happened, because cancer
• 10:17
  or not, she was smack dab in the middle of
• 10:19
  the cover up. And when you're running the DOJ, you're
• 10:22
  the ag. The buck stops with you. So who knows
• 10:28
  what we're going to hear today about Pam Bondy and
• 10:31
  her visit to Congress. But my guess is we're going
• 10:34
  to hear two competing storylines, one from the Democrats and
• 10:37
  one from the Republicans, and Somewhere in the middle of
• 10:40
  all of that will find the truth. All the information
• 10:45
  that goes with this episode can be found in the
