Trump Directs Bondi To Unseal Epstein Transcripts From 2019 Grand Jury
President Donald Trump called on Attorney General Pam Bondi Thursday to seek court approval for the release of grand jury transcripts from the 2019 prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein. Bondi stated on social media that her office is prepared to ask the court to unseal the grand jury transcripts at Trump’s request. Trump’s announcement followed a Wall Street Journal report revealing a sexually suggestive letter signed by him in Epstein’s birthday album, part of a batch previously reviewed by the Justice Department. Critics argued that grand jury testimony wouldn’t reveal the full extent of Epstein’s network, calling for broader disclosures, including videos and emails. Trump’s MAGA supporters have promoted conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death, demanded the release of a supposed client list, and called for further prosecutions. Wired reported that metadata shows nearly three minutes were missing from the DOJ and FBI’s so-called “full raw” surveillance video near Epstein’s cell the night before his death.
