A US Department of Justice and the FBI memo concluded that Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a client list involving high-profile associates. It frustrated Trump's supporters who criticized Attorney General Pam Bondi.
  • A joint DOJ–FBI memo reaffirmed that no “client list” of high-profile individuals existed and found no evidence Epstein blackmailed anyone.
  • MAGA hardliners (e.g., Alex Jones) and some Trump allies lash out at AG Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, demanding disclosures.
  • President Trump urged supporters to stop attacking his team over “Epstein Files,” calling Epstein “somebody nobody cares about” and insisting his administration is “PERFECT.”
  • Internal friction reportedly flared between Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino (who threatened to quit) and Bondi, though Trump insists DOJ/FBI are united.
  • Trump wants the FBI to refocus on his unproven 2020 election–fraud claims rather than “the same old…documents on Jeffrey Epstein.”

    As an aside, there’s growing evidence that not taking the full course of antibiotics if the infection is already resolved is the best course of action.

    I believe the theory is that by continuing to take the antibiotics, you kill off the bacteria that isn’t drug resistant and just leave the drug resistant bacteria behind.

      And you have sources? Because last time I checked this was the worst way of doing it, as you leave enough bacteria to try and mutate into resistivity.

      If you already had resistant bacteria, taking antibiotics wouldn’t heal you for long anyway, tried it first hand a few months ago.
