Bondi and Trump Baffle Americans on Epstein Flip-Flop

In a move that could only happen in the age of political theater, President Donald Trump took to Truth Social this past week to label the Jeffrey Epstein case coverage a “SCAM”. He then ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to unseal all pertinent grand jury testimony—because nothing says “transparency” like demanding the release of secret transcripts that are legally bound to stay secret unless a court says otherwise.

According to Reuters, Trump blasted Democrats for sensationalizing Epstein’s crimes and insisted that flooding the public with sealed materials would finally put an end to the “ridiculous amount of publicity” surrounding the disgraced financier.

Bondi, obedient as ever, confirmed on X that the Justice Department would file a petition to unseal the records “tomorrow”—because what better way to prove your innocence than by tearing open a vault that Congress and the courts have historically kept shut? Critics warn that victims and witnesses could object, and unredacted testimony might expose sensitive details that even Epstein’s most fervent defenders wouldn’t want broadcast.

Far From Woke Verdict: If you’re going to call something a “scam,” at least be consistent—otherwise you’re just the political equivalent of a rubber-chicken magician, making secrets disappear on cue.
