FBI Holding Epstein Files? Pam Bondi Pushes Kash Patel to Act [WATCH]

Attorney General Pam Bondi has called out the FBI for failing to fully comply with her demand for all documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.

In a letter sent Thursday to FBI Director Kash Patel, Bondi asserted that the bureau had knowingly withheld critical information and urged Patel to investigate the agency’s lack of compliance.

The letter became public as the White House released an initial batch of Epstein-related documents to a group of MAGA influencers, sparking frustration among lawmakers.

Among those who received the first set of Epstein files was Mike Cernovich, who confirmed that Bondi was actively working to secure the remaining materials.

“I received approximately 200 pages of documents, which consisted primarily of flight logs, Epstein’s list of contacts, and a list of victims’ names and phone numbers,” Bondi wrote to Patel.

Despite her repeated questioning, Bondi said she was assured by the FBI that these were the full set of documents responsive to her request.

This is the story:

President Trump & AG Pam Bondi committed to releasing the Epstein files.

The FBI was told to deliver the files to Bondi.

They did, about 200 pages.

Bondi smelled a rat, because there was nothing juicy in the 200 pages, just flight logs & a Rolodex of phone…

However, new information revealed that the bureau was holding back.

“Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI Field Office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and indictment of Epstein.

Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of those files,” she stated.

Bondi made it clear that she expects full cooperation from the bureau, setting a firm deadline for compliance.

“By 8:00 a.m. tomorrow, February 28, the FBI will deliver the full and complete Epstein files to my office including all records, documents, audio and video recordings, and materials related to Jeffrey Epstein and his clients, regardless of how such information was obtained,” she wrote.

“There will be no withholdings or limitations to my or your access.”

In addition to demanding the full release of Epstein-related records, Bondi called on Patel to investigate why the FBI failed to comply with her initial request.

The FBI’s handling of Epstein-related records has long been a point of controversy, with repeated concerns over transparency and potential cover-ups.

Bondi’s letter places renewed pressure on the bureau to fully disclose all available documents, as frustration grows over the slow and incomplete release of information.

With Bondi’s firm deadline approaching, attention now turns to whether the FBI will comply or face further scrutiny over its handling of the Epstein files.

The FBI is entering a new era—one that will be defined by integrity, accountability, and the unwavering pursuit of justice. There will be no cover-ups, no missing documents, and no stone left unturned — and anyone from the prior or current Bureau who undermines this will be…
