At Trump's urging, Bondi says US will investigate Epstein's ties to Clinton and other political foes
NEW YORK (AP) — Acceding to President Donald Trump’s demands, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Friday that she has ordered a top federal prosecutor to investigate sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to Trump political foes, including former President Bill Clinton.
Bondi posted on X that she was assigning Manhattan U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton to lead the probe, capping an eventful week in which congressional Republicans released nearly 23,000 pages of documents from Epstein’s estate and House Democrats seized on emails mentioning Trump.
Trump, who was friends with Epstein for years, didn’t explain what supposed crimes he wanted the Justice Department to investigate. None of the men he mentioned in a social media post demanding the probe has been accused of sexual misconduct by any of Epstein’s victims.
Hours before Bondi’s announcement, Trump posted on his Truth Social platform that he would ask her, the Justice Department and the FBI to investigate Epstein’s “involvement and relationship” with Clinton and others, including former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and LinkedIn founder and Democratic donor Reid Hoffman.

The R’s and Republican sympathizers who stayed behind in the Justice department or other Executive Branch offices first when President Obama was in office and again when President Biden was in office literally had YEARS to find solid dirt on Mr. Bill. And I doubt that they would have kept it hidden if they had.
Why would the Republicans keep quiet about such a potential scandal? Out of the goodness of their hearts?
Out of a sense of fair play?
Because they wanted to uphold the dignity of the office of President while a Democrat was in charge?
Because they honored and respected the former First Lady and Secretary of State?
I think most readers here know about Club Pachyderm’s desire for comity and decency (or lack of same). 
If they’d have had even as quarter or an eighth as much dirt on Bill Clinton as has surfaced with “Randy Andy” Windsor, they WOULD have dug it up and USED it, and they would have used it a long time before now.
The most plausible conclusion is that there wasn’t any.
