The fallout from a Justice Department memo on the Jeffrey Epstein case reached a fevered pitch July 11 with reports a top FBI official may resign.

An irate attorney general is said to have confronted the deputy director of the F.B.I. at a tense White House meeting earlier in the week.

The fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files is further roiling a Justice Department and FBI that have struggled to appease the demands of far-right conservative personalities.

F BI Director Kash Patel publicly denied resignation rumors Saturday, stating he plans to remain in his position despite ongoing tensions with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the handling of Jeffrey Epstein investigation files.

Releasing the Epstein files” was a campaign promise made by President Donald Trump, and backed by MAGA diehards, among allegations of a major cover-up involving Epstein and the extremely wealthy individuals with whom he associated.
