AG Bondi announces DOJ investigation into Bill Clinton, other Democrats over alleged Epstein ties

In an X post Friday afternoon, Bondi said Jay Clayton, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, will take the lead on the investigation.

"Clayton is one of the most capable and trusted prosecutors in the country," Bondi wrote in the post. "As with all matters, the Department will pursue this with urgency and integrity to deliver answers to the American people."

The president called the situation "another Russia, Russia, Russia scam, with all arrows pointing to the Democrats."

"Records show that these men, and many others, spent large portions of their life with Epstein, and on his 'Island.' Stay tuned!!!" he wrote.

"We regret any association we had with the man but did not help him commit his heinous acts," Trish Wexler, head of policy and advocacy communications at JPMorgan Chase & Co., wrote in a statement. "We ended our relationship with him years before his arrest on sex trafficking charges."

In another email, Epstein wrote to Michael Wolff, explaining Trump "knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop."

Oversight Committee Ranking Member Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., released a fiery statement demanding the DOJ release all the Epstein files "immediately."

"The more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover," Garcia wrote in a statement. "These latest emails and correspondence raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the president."
