The president denied a report that he once sent Epstein a racy birthday letter, and directed his attorney general to release additional documents related to the convicted sex offender.

President Donald Trump defended Attorney General Pam Bondi over the weekend amid criticism from some in his base over a memo about accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, writing on Truth Social that Bondi is doing “a FANTASTIC JOB” in her role.

The FBI and DOJ said they do not plan to make future public disclosures related to their review of Epstein's case, stoking outrage among Trump's most vocal supporters.

Some of the president’s most fervent supporters are angry over the joint statement that concluded the accused sex trafficker had no secret “client list” and committed suicide in his jail cell.

The Trump administration had hoped that that statement would be the final word on the saga, with Trump chiding a reporter who asked Bondi about the Epstein case at a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday.

Federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, was fired from the US Department of Justice on Wednesday, NBC News reported, citing sources familiar with the matter.

According to the news network, in the wake of MAGA outrage following this week’s DOJ and FBI announcement that there was no evidence of the long-rumored list of clients once held by the deceased American financier, child sex offender and sex trafficker Epstein, Bongino had been considering his exit over tensions with Bondi.

House Democrats demand a public hearing on the Jeffrey Epstein case, seeking testimony from AG Bondi and FBI officials amid Republican divisions over released memo.

Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino has told people he is considering resigning amid a major clash between the FBI and Justice Department over the continued fallout from the release of the Jeffrey Epstein memo,
