Overview

  • President Trump took to Truth Social to praise Attorney General Pam Bondi as “doing a fantastic job” and criticize MAGA figures calling for her resignation.
  • A joint Justice Department and FBI memo released July 6 closed the Epstein investigation by finding no incriminating client list and confirming his death was a suicide.
  • Reports of a heated clash between Bondi and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino have fueled speculation he may resign amid the dispute.
  • Some hard-line supporters remained unconvinced, staging symbolic protests that included burning red “Make America Great Again” caps.
  • Trump directed his base to shift attention from the Epstein files to alleged 2020 election fraud and other investigations he deems more pressing.
