#Trump said Friday he will ask AG #PamBondi to investigate #JeffreyEpstein’s ties to prominent Democrats, pointing to some of his perceived enemies, & again attacking #Democrats for the release earlier this week of emails from the late Epstein that mention him — except Dems only released 3, <Republicans released 23,000 pages.

#Trump named fmr President #BillClinton, fmr Treasury Secretary #LarrySummers & the VC #ReidHoffman — whom he alleged had ties to the disgraced financier & sex offender #Epstein.

In a social media post, Trump blasted #Democrats for “using the Epstein Hoax” to distract from the shutdown, & indicated that because they had seized on the recent reports of his ties to Epstein, he would investigate “many other people & institutions, to determine what was going on with them.”

“This is another Russia, Russia, Russia Scam, with all arrows pointing to the Democrats,” #Trump wrote. “Records show that these men, & many others, spent large portions of their life with Epstein, & on his ‘Island.’ Stay tuned!!!”

What an idiot.

AG #PamBondi has assigned the US attorney in Manhattan to investigate former President #BillClinton & others named in #JeffreyEpstein’s emails a few hours after #Trump ordered her to do so — a stark demonstration of her willingness to surrender the traditional #independence of the #DOJ to serve Trump’s personal political agenda.

#PamBondi’s decision to press forward with the investigation is a complete turnaround from a memo issued by the #DOJ & the FBI in July that said that officials had thoroughly scrutinized the #EpsteinFiles & found nothing in them that could sustain opening further inquiries into anyone.

AG #PamBondi’s assignment to #SDNY of an investigation into #BillClinton could create significant conflict within an office known for its investigative might & #independence.

The office’s leadership flatly refused strong-arm pressure from the #DOJ to sign off on withdrawal of the bribery indictment of Mayor #EricAdams of NYC earlier this year, prompting a wave of resignations & forcing a top Bondi aide to appear on behalf of the govt to make the request in court himself.

#JayClayton, a former corporate lawyer who served as the #SEC chair during the first #Trump admin, was nominated by the president to be the #USattorney for the #SDNY in January, but his confirmation was blocked by NY’s senior Democratic senator, #ChuckSchumer. Clayton was then appointed on an interim basis in April, & in August, the judges of Manhattan’s Federal District Court appointed him to the post, meaning he could serve for the rest of Trump’s term.

Trump’s post today is the second time he has put one of the #DemocraticParty’s biggest #donors in his Justice Dept’s cross hairs. A few weeks ago, #Trump was targeting the foundation of #GeorgeSoros, the Democratic billionaire. Now he’s after #ReidHoffman, one of the few liberal givers who rivals Soros in the amount he donates.

Hoffman, a co-founder of #LinkedIn, is one of #SiliconValley’s most prominent executives, & the leader of the tech sector’s progressive donor community.

#DOJ to Investigate #Epstein Ties, but Not to #Trump

When a trove of #JeffreyEpstein’s emails were made public this week, Donald J. Trump’s name was ALL OVER THEM. But on Friday, when Trump demanded that the Justice Department investigate a list of powerful men mentioned in the emails, his own name was nowhere to be seen — he had singled out only #Democrats.

Justice Department to Investigate Epstein Ties, but Not to Trump

President Trump ordered the Justice Department to investigate the dealings of Democrats with Jeffrey Epstein, after a week in which his own relationship with the convicted sex offender was in the spotlight.

@Nonilex Just a reminder that this is a direct result of the Supreme Court’s immunity decision, which didn’t just endorse this. It gave the President absolute immunity to do it.
