When asked about clarity regarding the Epstein materials, Trump expressed confidence in Attorney General Pam bondi, who provided him with a fast briefing on the files. Trump denied that his name appeared in the files and dismissed allegations as part of political hoaxes similar to the &#8220;Russia Russia Russia&#8221; claims. He praised BondiS handling of the situation amidst some internal criticism and urged unity within the MAGA movement. Bondi had previously indicated that the Epstein files, along with other sensitive documents like JFK and MLK files, were under review by the Department of Justice but clarified she did not confirm the existence of a specific Epstein client list. Some conservatives have called for Bondi&#8217;s resignation over this controversy, but she defended her actions during a recent Cabinet meeting.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that the Jeffrey Epstein files were made up by former FBI Director James Comey and former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>A reporter asked Trump if there should be more transparency with the Epstein materials, noting that his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/bennyjohnson\/status\/1944836410743382252\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">stated<\/a> on Monday that the president wants that too.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/breaking-ag-barr-authorizes-federal-prosecutors-to-pursue-substantial-allegations-of-voting-irregularities-before-2020-election-is-certified\/\" title=\"BREAKING: AG Barr Authorizes Federal Prosecutors to Pursue &quot;Substantial Allegations&quot;
