The game is afoot [View all]

On Friday, Trump ordered Bondi to launch a federal investigation related to Epstein — this one aimed at his ties to several prominent Democrats...


The legislation that Trump and Congress agreed to pass gives the Justice Department a few exceptions under which it can refuse to release material. Among them: if release “would jeopardize an active federal investigation or ongoing prosecution.”


Bondi said Wednesday that she had received information that led her to now investigate people. She did not provide details about that information.

“There is new information, additional information and, again, we will continue to follow the law and investigate any leads,” she said.
