REMINDER: Jim Comey’s Daughter Maurene Reported that the Video of Epstein’s Cell on Night of His Murder Was Lost and Then Found

Is it a surprise that Jim Comey’s daughter Maurene is in the middle of the Epstein case?

Sunday’s announcement of the Epstein files was a shocker. On Sunday, over the weekend a report was released exonerating most all of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes related to the trafficking of young children for the rich and famous.  The initial reaction was that this was not an official DOJ document.

Axios reported:

President Trump‘s Justice Department and FBI have concluded they have no evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein blackmailed powerful figures, kept a “client list” or was murdered, according to a memo detailing the findings obtained by Axios.

  • The administration is releasing a video — in both raw and “enhanced” versions — that it says indicates no one entered the area of the Manhattan prison where Epstein was held the night he died in 2019.
  • The video supports a medical examiner’s finding that Epstein died by suicide, the two-page memo claims.

Why it matters: The findings represent the first time Trump’s administration has officially contradicted conspiracy theories about Epstein’s activities and his death — theories that had been pushed by the FBI’s top two officials before Trump appointed them to the bureau.

  • As social media influencers and activists, Kash Patel (now the FBI’s director) and Dan Bongino (now deputy director) were among those in MAGA world who questioned the official version of how Epstein died.
  • Patel and Bongino have since said Epstein killed himself. But it has become an article of faith online, especially on the right, that Epstein’s crimes also implicated government officials, celebrities and business leaders — and that someone killed him to conceal them.
  • The memo says no one else involved in the Epstein case will be charged. (Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking and related offenses.)

Zoom in: According to the memo, investigators closely examined footage of Epstein’s Manhattan prison cell between around 10:40pm on Aug. 9, 2019, when Epstein was locked in his cell, and around 6:30am the next day, when he was found unresponsive.

  • The footage, which was reviewed by Axios but couldn’t be verified independently, showed no one entering the area, the administration said.
  • “The FBI enhanced the relevant footage by increasing its contrast, balancing the color, and improving its sharpness for greater clarity and viewability,” the memo says.
  • Investigators found “no incriminating ‘client list’ ” of Epstein’s, “no credible evidence … that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals,” and no “evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties,” the memo adds.

Wait, What? If There Was No Epstein Client List Then Why Did NY Court Refuse The Gateway Pundit’s Legal Request for the List Based on an Anonymous ‘John Doe’ Who Was On the List?

On Sunday night the Department of Justice and FBI released a document that concluded that notorious child predator Jeffrey Epstein did not have a “client list” and that he was not murdered but committed suicide.

The FBI released a video that shows an empty hallway in what they insist proves Epstein committed suicide.

The FBI memo says there is no evidence that Epstein blackmailed powerful political figures.

Additionally, the memo suggests that no further Epstein records will be released.

Here is a copy of the letter that was released by the DOJ and FBI on Sunday night.

If Jeffrey Epstein Had No Client List Then Why Did AG Pam Bondi Tell Reporters the List “Is Sitting on My Desk Right Now to Review – That’s in the Process of Being Reviewed”

The Swamp wants you to believe—once and for all—that Jeffrey Epstein was nothing more than a lone-wolf pervert who conveniently “killed himself” in a filthy Manhattan jail cell.

Axios dropped a two-page memo this weekend, from President Trump’s DOJ and the newly installed FBI leadership of Director Kash Patel and Deputy Dan Bongino, asserting that:

  • Epstein definitively died by suicide;
  • No “client list” exists;
  • And there is “no evidence” he ever blackmailed the powerful.

The memo reads:

As part of our commitment to transparency, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have conducted an exhaustive review of investigative holdings relating to Jeffrey Epstein. To ensure that the review was thorough, the FBI conducted digital searches of its databases, hard drives, and network drives as well as physical searches of squad areas, locked cabinets, desks, elosets, and other areas where responsive material may have been stored. These searches uncovered a significant amount of material, including more than 300 gigabytes of data and physical evidence.

The files relating to Epstein include a large volume of images of Epstein, images and videos of victims who are either minors or appear to be minors, and over ten thousand downloaded videos and images of illegal child sex abuse material and other pornography. Teams of agents, analysts, attorneys, and privacy and civil liberties experts combed through the digital and documentary evidence with the aim of providing as much information as possible to the public while simultaneously protecting victims. Much of the material is subject to court-ordered sealing. Only a fraction of this material would have been aired publicly had Epstein gone to trial, as the seal served only to protect victims and did not expose any additional third-parties to allegations of illegal wrongdoing. Through this review, we found no basis to revisit the disclosure of those materials and will not permit the release of child pornography.

This systematic review revealed no incriminating “client list.” There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.

Consistent with prior disclosures, this review confirmed that Epstein harmed over one thousand victims. Each suffered unique trauma. Sensitive information relating to these victims is intertwined throughout the materials. This includes specific details such as victim names and likenesses, physical descriptions, places of birth, associates, and employment history.

One of our highest priorities is combatting child exploitation and bringing justice to victims. Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves neither of those ends.

To that end, while we have labored to provide the public with maximum information regarding Epstein and ensured examination of any evidence in the government’s possession, it is the determination of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted.

After a thorough investigation, FBI investigators concluded that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on August 10, 2019.

This conclusion is consistent with previous findings, including the August 19, 2019 autopsy findings of the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, the November 2019 position of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York in connection with the investigation of federal correctional officers responsible for guarding Epstein, and the June 2023 conclusions of DOJ’s Office of the Inspector General.

The conclusion that Epstein died by suicide is further supported by video footage from the common area of the Special Housing Unit (SHU) where Epstein was housed at the time of his death. As DOJ’s Inspector General explained in 2023, anyone entering or attempting to enter the tier where Epstein’s cell was located from the SHU common area would have been captured by this footage. The FBI’s independent review of this footage confirmed that from the time Epstein was locked in his cell at around 10:40 pm on August 9, 2019, until around 6:30 am the next morning, nobody entered any of the tiers in the SHU.

During this review, the FBI enhanced the relevant footage by increasing its contrast, balancing the color, and improving its sharpness for greater clarity and viewability.

Jeffrey Epstein’s brother slams FBI director for saying pedophile died by suicide: He has ‘no idea what the f—k he’s talking about’

Jeffrey Epstein’s brother is refusing to accept that his pedophile brother died by suicide — angrily attacking FBI Director Kash Patel for dismissing long-running conspiracy theories that it could have been a murder.

Patel “wasn’t there, he didn’t see the body, he didn’t see the autopsy,” Mark Epstein told the Daily Mail of his brother’s death in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

“[He has] no idea what the f—k he’s talking about,” he said of Patel dismissing the possibility that the pedophile’s death was anything but suicide.

“It would be a lot easier for me if I thought it was suicide, but there’s a long list of things that point away from it,” the younger Epstein said.

Epstein’s fiery comments come after Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino declared the sexual predator took his own life at the notorious Big Apple lockup in 2019, putting a lid on conspiracy theorists who have long claimed he was murdered.

“Listen, they have a right to their opinion,” Patel told Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” about skeptics of his assessment.

White House: Bondi to Release Files on Alleged Clinton ‘Conspiracy’ Deaths

The White House has announced that Attorney General Pam Bondi is set to release files concerning deaths linked to the Clintons. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Bondi’s commitment to this decision, highlighting her history of keeping promises. The announcement follows a recent video shared by Donald Trump on Truth Social, which delves into the “Clinton Body Count” conspiracy theory.

Trump’s video suggests that over 50 individuals tied to the Clintons have died under suspicious circumstances. While conspiracy theorists have long speculated on this topic, the claims remain largely unproven. Trump’s decision to share such inflammatory content raises questions, but his actions are often unpredictable.

The video even speculates that Hillary Clinton was involved in JFK Jr.’s plane crash, allegedly to clear her path to the New York Senate seat. While such claims might seem outlandish, the high number of deaths surrounding the Clintons raises eyebrows. Some of the deceased were reportedly poised to testify against the Clintons, which adds a layer of suspicion.

Psychology Today has noted that conspiracy theories often stem from cognitive biases, like confirmation bias. This means people tend to believe narratives that align with their existing beliefs. Given Trump’s longstanding disdain for the Clintons, it’s not surprising that he would entertain such theories.

A common factor in believing conspiracy theories is a deep mistrust of authorities. Trump, having faced significant scrutiny from the left, might find it easy to mistrust those in power. However, airing these accusations without concrete evidence can be problematic.

While Trump has every right to voice his opinions, making unsubstantiated claims during his presidency is contentious. If he presents solid evidence supporting his claims, the narrative could shift dramatically. Until then, the theory remains speculative.

In the realm of politics, distrust and skepticism are not uncommon. Trump’s supporters may see his actions as a brave challenge to a system they feel is biased. However, critics argue that such statements without proof are reckless.

The Clintons have been a focal point for various conspiracy theories over the years. This latest wave of allegations is just another chapter in a long history of speculation. The promised release of files by Attorney General Bondi might shed light on these mysterious deaths.

Kash and Bongino losing trust over Epstein

This past weekend on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo, FBI director Kash Patel and his deputy, Dan Bongino, made a stunning declaration: Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide.  That was it.  Case closed.  Bongino even said he’s “seen the file,” as if that alone should convince the American people to move on.

But that’s not how this works.

I couldn’t tell if I was watching an interview or a hostage video.

The public doesn’t owe Patel and Bongino blind trust, especially not on a matter this explosive.  In fact, their appearance on Bartiromo’s show torpedoed their credibility.

Epstein wasn’t just another inmate.  He was a nexus of corruption, intelligence, and elite abuse — someone whose connections spanned elites, presidents, royalty, billionaires, and spies.  His death was either one of the most spectacular security failures in modern history — or something far darker.  And no number of official titles or vague references to secret documents should shut down public scrutiny.

Americans have good reason to be suspicious.  Epstein’s death was a hall of mirrors from the start.  There weren’t just a few oddities; there was an avalanche of contradictions and red flags.  Yet Bongino and Patel simply want you to trust what they say their eyes saw.

Nope.  Sorry.

‘I call bullsh**’: Kash Patel and Dan Bongino hammered for claiming Epstein DID kill himself and downplaying Trump assassination attempts

FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino are facing fierce criticism for asserting convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein indeed killed himself in jail, and also downplaying concerns about the assassination attempts on President Donald Trump.

As WorldNetDaily reported, Maria Bartiromo of Fox News on “Sunday Morning Futures” asked both officials why many Americans don’t buy the government assertion that Epstein committed suicide in a New York City holding facility.

“They have a right to their opinion,” Patel said, “but as someone who has worked as a public defender, as a prosecutor who’s been in that prison system, who’s been in the Metropolitan Detention Center, who’s been in segregated housing, you know a suicide when you see one, and that’s what that was.”

Bongino said: “He killed himself. I’ve seen the whole file. He killed himself.”

Reporter Asks Karoline Leavitt About Clinton Suicides and Epstein’s Ties to Israeli Intelligence Agencies After Trump Posts Video Tying the Clintons to Multiple Alleged Suicides

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt received a somewhat explosive question during Monday’s press briefing when a Zero Hedge reporter highlighted the bizarre deaths of associates of former President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton and “the most famous Clinton-related suicide.” 

Many who have been close to the Clinton family have allegedly died mysteriously or “committed suicide” over the years.

This includes deceased pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein, with whom Bill Clinton partied on Epstein’s pedophile island. Clinton made at least 27 trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane. Most of those flights were with underage girls.

The Gateway Pundit has reported on a complete list of Clinton associates who died mysteriously or committed suicide before their public testimony. The list contains nearly 50 names.

‘He Killed Himself’: FBI Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino Double Down on Epstein Claim

Billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, whose list of clients included some of the world’s most elite, really killed himself inside his jail cell, FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino said.

Speaking to Fox News Sunday Morning Futures’ Maria Bartiromo, Patel and Bongino both confirmed the deceased hedge fund manager who owned Pedophile Island died by suicide inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City.

“You said Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. People don’t believe it,” Bartiromo pressed the pair.

“They have a right to their opinion,” Patel responded.

“But as someone who’s been a public defender, a prosecutor, who’s worked in that prison system and been inside segregated housing——you know a suicide when you see one. And that’s what that was,” he added.

FBI Deputy Director Bongino backed up Patel, saying, “He killed himself.”

“Again, you want me to—I’ve seen the whole file…He killed himself,” Bongino said.

The claims align with what Director Patel told a Senate Appropriations subcommittee earlier this month, including comments to Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.), saying, “Senator, I believe he hung himself in a cell in the Metropolitan detention center.”
