Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett Blasts Pam Bondi as Pressure Mounts Over Release of Epstein Files

Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is raising new questions about Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, openly mocking Bondi in a recent social-media exchange with constituents. When asked, “When will the Epstein files come out?” Crockett did not hold back.

“Y’all know I don’t trust Pam, right?” the Texas lawmaker said, before playing a clip of Bondi stumbling through a press conference. The reporter had asked why Bondi previously claimed no further Epstein investigation was necessary, only to suddenly launch a new probe this year.

Bondi awkwardly responded: “Information that has come… information, um… there’s information… new information… additional information.” Crockett dismissed the explanation, arguing that if Bondi’s department had been doing its job from the start, they would have already uncovered that same material.

According to the new law signed by President Trump, the Department of Justice must release the Epstein files within 30 days. Crockett reminded viewers that the House Oversight Committee has long-standing subpoenas for DOJ materials—subpoenas the committee has struggled to enforce.

What remains at DOJ and the FBI reportedly includes emails, photos, videos, and other graphic evidence, far more explosive than anything released so far by the Epstein estate. Although Bondi may attempt to delay release by citing “ongoing investigations,” the law still requires DOJ to turn all materials—redacted or not—over to House Oversight. While Congress cannot publicly release redacted files, members would know exactly what was withheld and why.

Crockett then mocked the Justice Department’s recent legal failures, saying Bondi’s team is “incompetent” and “about to lose that Comey case,” adding sarcastically: “They even lost the sandwich assault case.”

Internal Chaos Inside DOJ: Epstein Files Mishandled

Complicating matters further, Bondi reportedly assigned over a thousand DOJ and FBI staff to review the Epstein files this spring and flag every reference or image involving Donald Trump. According to reporting from Allison Gill of The Midas Touch, the files were left insecure, with no permission controls—meaning masses of personnel had unrestricted access.

What they saw stunned them.

The evidence was reportedly so disturbing that some staffers broke down while reviewing it, many having children the age of Epstein’s victims or being survivors themselves. They were kept inside the building on lockdown as they processed the material—an ordeal some believe was part of then–DOJ official Kash Patel’s political project, which allegedly targeted survivors.

Because of this reckless setup, dozens—if not hundreds—of FBI and DOJ employees became aware of the file contents, including the number of times Donald Trump appears in the evidence. That, analysts say, may explain why House Republicans suddenly voted almost unanimously to release the files: they may be trying to get ahead of a political disaster they now see coming.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Abruptly Resigns as GOP Panic Grows

Over the weekend, GOP firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene announced she will resign from Congress in January. In a surprising statement, she said she did not want her district “to endure a hateful primary” after Trump “dumped tens of millions of dollars” against her.

More shocking, Greene openly predicted:

Donald Trump is likely to be impeached

Republicans will lose the House majority next year

Democrats will take control of Congress

Her blunt assessment stunned political observers. Analysts now believe the impending Epstein file release could accelerate Trump’s falling approval ratings and further damage the GOP brand—already suffering amid public anger over high prices and inflation.

Economic Frustration Intensifies Trump’s Political Troubles

Americans continue facing steep price increases across nearly every sector:

Groceries 85%

Utilities 78%

Healthcare 67%

Housing 66%

Gasoline 54%

As journalist Kate Bolduan noted, Americans feel they cannot catch a break—and poll after poll shows they do not trust Donald Trump’s claims that prices are falling or that the economy is strong. Each time Trump’s credibility erodes, fewer people believe him about anything—including the Epstein files.

Trump insists the files are a “hoax.” But most Americans suspect damaging revelations lie ahead.

Bondi and Trump’s Legal Team Under Scrutiny

Meanwhile, Trump’s legal representatives—particularly Lindsay Halligan—continue suffering courtroom embarrassments in ongoing cases involving James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. Crockett argues that both Halligan and Bondi should be disbarred, noting that Bondi submitted misleading affirmations about Halligan’s grand jury work.

Political commentators and viewers have echoed that sentiment online, with one viral comment reading:
“Bondi and Halligan losing their licenses would be hilarious. Clown school is getting found out indeed.”

As Pressure Mounts, Questions Multiply

With the 30-day deadline ticking, Crockett and other Democrats say the public is closer than ever to learning what’s inside the Epstein files—and why the Trump-era DOJ worked so hard to bury them.

As Crockett quipped while signing off:

“If Pam Bondi thinks she can hide this mess, she’s about to learn otherwise.”
