Justice Department Officially Declares Jeffrey Epstein Died of Suicide & Dismisses Claims of A Client List, MAGA Letdown Ensues
Welp, MAGA conspiracy folks, the Jeffrey Epstein case is closed.
Sunday night, Axios broke the news that, in a stunning move, the Justice Department announced that it is moving on from the Jeffrey Epstein case, announcing the accused sex trafficker died of suicide in his jail cell, throwing cold water on the conspiracy that he was murdered.
Oh, and the legendary client list, according to the Justice Department, that doesn't exist.
The Justice Department also stated in its memo that it does not plan to release any additional documents related to the Epstein matter.
Womp,womp.
This latest admission from the Justice Department is a renege on one of the big promises from Donald Trump, who claimed that he would release government files related to Epstein and go against the conspiracy theories pushed by right-wing influencers for years.
'This systematic review revealed no incriminating 'client list,'' the unsigned memo states. 'There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.'
The Justice Department also released 10 hours of jailhouse video footage that showed no one entered Epstein's cell the day he took his own life, debunking the conspiracy that he did not hang himself.
These latest revelations debunk years of conspiracy theories pushed by right-wing media figures that claim the government is withholding secrets regarding Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial for federal sex trafficking charges.
Some people pushed the conspiracy about the Epstein list without a shred of truth. Pam Bondi Is Looking Funny In The Light
It also comes in stark contrast to what Attorney General Pam Bondi said back in February when she told Fox News that Epstein's client list is 'sitting on my desk right now to review.'
She continued, 'That's been a directive by President Trump. I'm reviewing that.'
The Justice Department, working alongside the White House, released documents related to the Epstein case, but they contained information already publicly available.
Hilariously, the White House held an event giving influencers the 'scoop' on the documents, and they were photographed walking out with binders labeled 'The Epstein Files: Phase 1.'
Even FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino (both highly underqualified for their positions), who were both highly suspicious of the investigation, have both claimed there was no evidence that Epstein was murdered.
This also comes after Elon Musk dropped the bombshell on X, formerly Twitter, that Donald Trump's name appears on the list that doesn't exist during his public fallout with Felon 47.
He eventually walked back that claim, but has chimed in on the matter again, writing on the social media platform he allegedly no longer owns, 'What's the time? Oh look, it's no-one-has-been-arrested-o'clock again.'
As you can imagine, the MAGA meltdown is currently happening, with people feeling hoodwinked and bamboozled by the Trump administration while those on the left are clowning them.
You can see those reactions in the gallery below.

GOP rep says he believes Epstein files were destroyed
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) said Wednesday he believes a so-called 'client list' associated with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein once existed but was 'destroyed' by the Biden administration. 'I think the files existed at one time,' Burchett said in an interview on NewsNation's 'On Balance' with host Leland Vittert. 'I think they were destroyed in the previous administration.' The Justice Department (DOJ) released a memo earlier this week concluding that Epstein did not keep such a list that was allegedly used to blackmail high-profile individuals — contradicting conspiracy theories circulating for years that suggested otherwise. The memo also concluded that the convicted sex offender died in his New York City jail cell in 2019 by suicide, refuting other claims that he died under suspicious circumstances. Burchett pushed back on suggestions by former Trump adviser Elon Musk and other media influencers that the president was among the individuals whose names were included in the files associated with Epstein. 'I think if they'd ever had anything on Trump, it would have been out day one under the Biden administration,' the Tennessee Republican said. 'I think there's some very prominent people. There's Hollywood people,' he added. 'I mean, I think there's world leaders too. And would it have caused economic disruption around the globe? maybe. But I don't really care. I want to bury those dirtbags.' Asked why Attorney General Pam Bondi would not simply say that the evidence has been destroyed, Burchett said, 'She doesn't have any proof of it.' 'I'm just telling you what I think. I've been around this town enough,' the lawmaker continued. 'I think she got over her skis pretty much saying all this stuff, the files are on my desk, I'm going to release it, and then she releases stuff that I knew.' 'I think they all got out there, got a little excited, and I don't think they exist,' he added, referring to the files. The interview comes amid backlash from segments of the right-wing media ecosphere following the release of the DOJ memo. Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino, in particular, have come under scrutiny from prominent voices in the MAGA movement who have questioned whether the government is covering up salacious information surrounding Epstein. Patel and Bongino are among those who had pushed such ideas before joining the government. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said earlier this week that DOJ's conclusion is the result of an 'exhaustive review of all of the files related to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and his death.' She noted there was some material the Trump administration did not release due to its graphic nature. Epstein was federally charged in 2019 on allegations that he led a sex trafficking operation involving underage girls from 2002 to 2005. He died in prison a month later, before the case could go to trial. He had earlier pleaded guilty to separate sexual misconduct charges.

O'Reilly: Trump said ‘a lot of names associated with Epstein' had nothing to do with his conduct
Former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly said he discussed the Jeffrey Epstein case in March with President Trump, who told him that there are 'a lot of names associated' with the disgraced financier for innocuous reasons. 'I talked to President Trump, man to man, eye to eye, on St Patrick's Day about this… And he said — and I agree — 'there are a lot of names associated with Epstein that had nothing to do with Epstein's conduct,'' O'Reilly said Wednesday during an appearance on NewsNation's 'CUOMO.' 'They maybe had lunch with them or maybe had some correspondence for one thing or another,' he told host Chris Cuomo. 'If that name gets out,' O'Reilly continued, 'those people are destroyed — because there's not going to be any context. Media doesn't care about context, so you can't do that. You can't destroy a human being by putting out the files, whatever they may be.' The news veteran argued that, instead, Attorney General Pam Bondi should host a press conference where she addresses the Epstein case head-on and shares with the public everything she can about the case. 'You certainly can have Attorney General Bondi say, this is what we know, and, you know, we're going to protect the innocent, and he's a heinous individual,' he said, adding that former Attorney General Merrick Garland — who served in the Biden administration — should sit next to her during the presser. The interview comes amid fierce backlash from segments of the right-wing media sphere and others after the Justice Department on Monday released a memo concluding the convicted sex offender did not keep any client list used to blackmail high-profile individuals, contradicting conspiracy theories circulating for years that suggested otherwise. The memo also concluded that Epstein died in 2019 by suicide, refuting other claims that he died under suspicious circumstances. The Trump administration has pushed back on those claims and has stressed its commitment to truth and transparency. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Monday that the memo is the result of an 'exhaustive review of all of the files related to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and his death.' She noted there was some material that DOJ 'did not release because, frankly, it was incredibly graphic and it contained child pornography, which is not something that's appropriate for public consumption.' Trump grew exasperated on Tuesday during a Cabinet meeting when a reporter tried to ask Bondi questions about the memo. 'Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?' the president said. 'This guy's been talked about for years. You're asking — we have Texas, we have this, we have all of the things. And are people still talking about this guy? This creep? That is unbelievable.' 'I mean, I can't believe you're asking a question on Epstein at a time like this where we're having some of the greatest success and also tragedy, with what happened in Texas,' he added. 'It just seems like a desecration.'

Fired doctor grovels after her foul post suggesting flood victims were Trump supporters who got ‘what they voted for' sparked outrage
The pediatrician who claimed the Texas flood victims were Trump supporters who got 'what they voted for' has issued a groveling apology after being canceled and fired. Dr. Christina B. Propst said she is taking 'full responsibility' for her now-viral post — while blaming it in part on her not knowing that 'so many precious lives were lost to the terrible tragedy' that killed more than 100 people, including dozens of kids. 'I speak to you as a mother, a neighbor, a pediatrician, and a human being who is deeply sorry,' the Houston-based children's doc wrote in a statement shared by KPRC. 5 Houston pediatrician Dr. Christina Propst was fired from her job after her social media post went viral. Texas Democrats 5 An officer prays with a family as they pick up items at Camp Mystic in Hunt, Texas on Wednesday, July 9, 2025. AP 'I understand my comment caused immense pain to those suffering indescribable grief and for that I am truly sorry.' While insisting she wrote her post before knowing anyone had died, she acknowledged: 'The words written were mine and regardless of how they are being presented, that is a fact that I deeply regret. 'I want to apologize to each and every individual suffering through terrible loss in this difficult time.' Blaming the backlash on her post 'being shared with the false impression that I made it after the devastating loss of life was known,' she again conceded: 'The comment was mine and mine alone.' Propst sparked widespread outrage from the since-deleted post, posted under her old Facebook username, Chris Tina. 5 The social media post that sparked backlash and led to her firing. 'May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry. Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA,' she had written. 'They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for.

Propst's employer, Blue Fish Pediatrics, announced she was 'no longer employed' in a statement on Monday after she was initially suspended. 5 Dr. Christina Propst issued an apology after her vile post went viral and she lost her job. Blue Fish Pediatrics 'We do not support or condone any statement that politicizes tragedy, diminishes human dignity, or fails to clearly uphold compassion for every child and family, regardless of background or beliefs,' the medical provider said. Propst said in her apology that politics have never impacted her judgment or actions as a medical provider, adding that she is 'tirelessly committed to children's medical care and would never be so callous as to make such a remark about lives cut so terribly short.' 5 Houses and cars are partially submerged in flood waters in an aerial view near Kerrville, Texas. via REUTERS She said her harsh words came from 'a place of frustration' from her belief that better support is needed to prepare and respond to disasters like last weekend's floods. More than 160 people are still missing in the wake of the devastating floods, and at least 118 have died — with that number expected to rise, officials said.
