The Wall Street Journal reported last week that Attorney General Pam Bondi informed Trump in May that his name was included in the Epstein files related to the sex trafficking case. The revelation comes after weeks of speculation surrounding the files as Trump has repeatedly tried to distract MAGA from the Epstein case.

In the midst of the chaos, Trump is hesitant to fire people like Attorney General Pam Bondi or Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino, even as both have badly contradicted themselves on Epstein, because he “does not want to create a bigger spectacle by firing anyone,” a source close to the situation said.
