MAGA Influencers Slam Trump DOJ's Jeffrey Epstein Claims

Some of the most prominent MAGA influencers on social media are completely rejecting the claim from President Donald Trump's Justice Department that Jeffrey Epstein did not keep a client list.
In a memo published by Axios Sunday night, the DOJ and FBI jointly stated that the Epstein files did not include a client list, or evidence of additional perpetrators — and that there will be "no further disclosure" of information on the case.
"This systematic review revealed no incriminating 'client list,'" The memo said. "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."
The hasty conclusion to a case that has been the subject of so many conspiracy theories from many in the MAGA base did not sit well with some of the biggest names on the far right.
Much of the ire was directed at Attorney General Pam Bondi — who claimed, in a February interview on Fox News, that the Epstein client list was "sitting on her desk."
Chad Prather — one of several conservative influencers who was invited to the White House in February and handed a binder of information by Bondi which purported to be full of new Epstein revelations but largely contained information that had already been disclosed — lashed out on Sunday night.
"Where is the Epstein info the American people were promised?" Prather wrote. "You handed us a notebook and promised more was on the way. You told us it existed and now you say it doesn't? America deserves answers."

"We were all told more was coming," added Jack Posobiec . "That answers were out there and would be provided. Incredible how utterly mismanaged this Epstein mess has been.

Here are some other reactions from notable figures in the MAGA sphere.
This new DOJ memo admits there are countless victims of Epstein on video but no client list or evidence of other rapists they can charge. Oh it claims Epstein wasn't using videos as blackmail.
So Epstein was trafficking these underage girls to nobody? Is Pam Bondi serious? No… pic.twitter.com/0NDGPWzQ0Y

No one is believing the Epstein coverup, @realDonaldTrump. This will be part of your legacy. There's still time to change it!

If Epstein didn't even HAVE a muthafuckin list, what the fuck yall been stringing us along for 6 goddamn years for?
If Epstein didn't even HAVE a muthafuckin client list, why the fuck Scam Bondi say she had one then?

Jeffery Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were both charged by the Feds for operating a massive sex trafficking ring that involved 'thousands' of victims.
They were both found guilty in federal court.

Does anyone believe Epstein was trafficking both minors and elites to his island getaway on the Lolita Express… where he had cameras all over his estates… recording thousands of videos… while amassing hundreds of millions of dollars… and it wasn't an "op"? Give us a break. https://t.co/78Eac9w4MW

This is a slap in the face to the American people and it's disgusting that our DOJ is protecting pedophiles https://t.co/22revreUve

No one should believe this finding without seeing the full files, redacted as necessary.
And what about the video that was confiscated from Epstein's island?
We're supposed to believe nothing incriminated anyone?
Ridiculous. They're covering for powerful people.

SHOCKING!
The DOJ and FBI have officially determined:
1. There's no proof Jeffrey Epstein was murdered
2. That he didn't maintain a list of clients
3. Nor did he blackmail high-profile individuals.
This is a TERRIBLE look on the FBI & the DOJ.
No one believes this.
Not…

MAGAs have been salivating over the thought of Bill Clinton being on that "list" for many years now.
I think the nation has problems that far surpass a Jeffery Epstein "list", but a good conspiracy or cover up never dies, or ends.
You know Trump isall over on this
I guess MAGA was wrong. Imagine that.
No client list, just a suicide, and no further release of additional flight logs. Trump was already revealed to be on a flight log several times so no more info.
What crazy conspiracy is next? Oh, I know. Marjorie Taylor Greene has drafted a bill to prosecute anyone who manipulates the weather.
I guess MTG is ready to arrest god? I wonder if she ever found those space lasers. Maybe RFK will find that chem trails cause autism and no more planes in our skies ever again. MAGA.
There is a MAGA candidate for governor in Georgia (a minor fringe candidate) who believes the texas flood is a false flag. And I doubt if she is the only one.
Of course Trump was on the flight logs, and Clinton even more so, at least 20 trips for bubba Bill on the Lolita Express.
All these people knew and socialized with each other, but no evidence that Trump was ever on the "island".
It would appear that many Republican higher ups were on the "nonexistent" list and have to be protected.
I do think that Bondi did in fact have the goods on some delicate clients.....she's been in the legal business too long to make a mistake like this. I think she was told to suppress it.
Told by the big fish ensnared in this tangled web woven
Influencers - someone wanting/needing attention - reliability based on gullibility.
do you have dat ability, or
just diss ability...?

you leave me scratching, my flakey head, cause i'm obviously head and shoulders under you...
So, why was Epstein being charged? Why is Ghislaine Maxwell in prison? Were they trafficking kids for sex with the Tooth Fairy? How can there be no clients? How do you convict someone of sex trafficking to nobody?
Also, with regard to this list, it was on Pam Bondi’s desk (according to her) and now it never existed? WTF?
The success of the MAGA movement rests in large part on the nature of its adherents, who are often uneducated, ill-informed, and gullible. To them, conspiracy theories, i.e., that there are forces out there that make their lives miserable, provide simple answers in a complex world.
These shadowy forces, collectively known as “they,” can be globalists, Jews, Democrats, child traffickers, bureaucrats, judges, the media, or all of the above.
“They” will stop at nothing to undermine the “good” America, which is why anything that can be blamed on “them” sounds plausible to MAGA supporters.
For example, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), one of the most prominent members of the GOP’s vast QAnon wing, reacted to the devastating floods in Texas with the announcement that she would introduce legislation “that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity.”
Noting that she has been “researching weather modification,” Greene added that “we must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering.”
If this is something she is worried about, she may want to check in with the fossil fuel industry, which has made trillions of dollars off weather modification over the past few decades.
But we digress.
Donald Trump, who is a major conspiracy theorist himself, was the first politician to really tap into this undercurrent of the GOP and take it mainstream.
As it turned out, there were tens of millions of conservatives out there willing to believe just about any of his lies, no matter how outrageous, free of evidence, or contradicted by reality they were.
In his wake, enterprising right-wing influencers then monetized that movement and kept feeding the belief in conspiracy theories.
Now that Trump is in power (again), however, we may see that there are limits to what the MAGA faithful will believe. And, ironically, they are drawing the line at the administration walking back some of the most prominent conspiracies.
And that brings us to Sunday’s publication of a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) memo that essentially says that there is nothing to see here with regard to the late wealthy pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who is at the heart of several conspiracy theories.
“[A] systematic review [of all available evidence] revealed no incriminating ‘client list.’ There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions,” stated the memo , which was first reported by Axios . “We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.”
Finally, the memo also said that Epstein killed himself in prison.
As you may know, the FBI is led by two of the very people who have fueled conspiracy theories in the past – Kash Patel and Dan Bongino.
And the two of them may now find themselves on the other side of one of those conspiracies. Specifically, since their review of the evidence did not find the information that was promised to MAGA supporters, maybe the two of them (and others, such as Attorney General Pam Bondi) are now part of “them.”
What makes this case especially spicy is that Elon Musk, who also dabbles in conspiracy theories, kicked off his ongoing feud with Trump by saying in a tweet that has since been deleted that the president himself is in the Epstein files.
The entrepreneur revisited that accusation in a series of social media posts, including one that highlighted the inconsistency of the administration’s statements with regard to Epstein.
Will the MAGA faithful be satisfied with the FBI’s findings?
Time will tell.
For now, the loudest response to the memo comes from progressives who are trying to bait all those on the right who felt that Trump would drop a major bombshell that would implicate Bill Clinton and other prominent members of “them.”
However, some of those right-wing influencers are clearly not happy.
Alex Jones, for example, suggested that the Department of Justice “is running cover for the CIA and Mossad.
“NO ONE IS BUYING THIS!!” he tweeted . “Next the DOJ will say ‘Actually, Jeffrey Epstein never even existed.’ This is over the top sickening.”
It will be interesting to see how this plays out this week.
The key issues to watch will be whether the discontent spills from the fringes of the QAnon movement to more mainstream conservatives (although that has become a pretty blurry line), and whether the ire of MAGA is only directed at Bondi, Patel, and Bongino, or if Trump himself becomes a target.
Yes. Because they tend to believe whatever they are told to believe. When it was politically advantageous to tie Epstein to the Clintons, it was the most important thing in the world. Now that there is no case, they will stop talking about it. It’s like that with so many issues.
