 Durbin: FBI agents were told to ‘flag’ Epstein records that mentioned Trump
by Alexander Bolton - 07/18/25 2:57 PM ET

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, says he has received information that Attorney General Pam Bondi “pressured” about 1,000 FBI personnel to comb through tens of thousands of pages of documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and flag any mention of President Trump.

Durbin made the explosive allegation in three letters that he sent Friday to Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino seeking more information about the administration’s handling of files related to Epstein and asking why senior officials were allegedly focused on looking for documents connecting Trump to Epstein.

Citing “information my office received,” Durbin said Bondi “pressured the FBI to put approximately 1,000 personnel in its Information Management Division” on 24-hour shifts to review about 100,000 Epstein-related records as part of a broader effort to release documents publicly by what Durbin called “an arbitrarily short deadline.”

Durbin says his office was told that FBI personnel were “instructed to ‘flag’ any records in which President Trump was mentioned.”

He went on to note in the letters that Trump in 2002 said he had known Epstein for 15 years and called him a “terrific guy” and “a lot of fun to be with.”

Yeah, so.

The Clintons still have whacked more people than Trump to keep things 'quiet'.

  • Didn't vote for McCain Dole Romney Trump !
Not the biggest Trump fan (as you all know by now).... but of course Trump wanted a heads-up on what exactly might be released.... especially since the 3-letter agencies like to fabricate info on Trump. In my opinion, I am going to side with "nothing-burger" that a democrat was trying to muddy the water with leaking basically zero incriminating info. Does that mean Trump might be in there in some manner more embarrassing, who knows.... but the surprising thing to me is Trump hasn't already combed through this before now (and that actually leans towards good news like he had nothing to hide, other than he liked a few slimeballs).

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
First off, to put it politely, Sen DICK Durbin, one of the biggest used douche bags in Washington, I would not trust anything that maggot has to say.

And frankly, I see nothing wrong with Trump wanting to know if there is any mention of him in the evidence.  He only gets in trouble if it is scrubbed, but wanting to know what is in the evidence, I see nothing wrong with that!.

DICK, DICK, DICK, when the **** are you going to retire and relieve the American people of the burden that was/is you?
