Bondi revealed that she had initially requested the complete Epstein case file before Patel took charge of the bureau but received only 200 pages—far fewer than the documents released last year in a civil lawsuit involving Epstein’s longtime associate, Ghislaine Maxwell.

His response comes after Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed in a letter to him that she had been told by sources that FBI agents in the New York field office were withholding “thousands” of Epstein-related documents after she requested that all materials related to the late convicted pedophile be turned over to her for eventual release.

FBI Director Kash Patel commended the agency for disclosing key information about Jeffrey Epstein. He assured transparency and accountability, stating that no hidden records would be overlooked.

Kash Patel faces growing pressure to release Jeffrey Epstein's black book after his pledge to do so "on day one," amid speculation Trump could be among those named.

For many years, the FBI has targeted ordinary Americans while actively working to protect powerful pedophiles. Recent history supports no other plausible conclusion. On Thursday, however, new FBI Director Kash Patel signaled an end to the Bureau's recent reign of corruption and terror.

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday ordered FBI Director Kash Patel to investigate why thousands of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein were withheld from her by the bureau.

Musk defended the new DOJ and FBI leaders, suggesting their efforts to release the Epstein files were being thwarted by a “hostile crew” of Biden-era employees.

President Donald Trump is named in the Jeffrey Epstein flight logs released by his own attorney general, Pam Bondi. The very first flight log documents Trump flying with Epstein seven times, including twice with his then-wife Marla Maples and their daughter Tiffany.
