WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump said on July 17 that he had asked Attorney-General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent grand jury testimony in the Jeffrey Epstein case, subject to court approval.
“Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney-General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval. This SCAM, perpetuated by the Democrats, should end, right now!” he wrote on his Truth Social platform.
Shortly after Mr Trump’s statement, Ms Bondi said on social media platform X that the Justice Department was ready to move the court on July 18 to unseal the grand jury transcripts.
“President Trump – we are ready to move the court tomorrow to unseal the grand jury transcripts,” she wrote. REUTERS
