Elon Musk warns Trump that 'nonexistent' bombshell Epstein findings may be the 'last straw'
Outrage ensued when a stunning report claimed the Justice Department and FBI are concluding that disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein did not hold a 'client list' and did kill himself in prison. Among the top critics is billionaire Elon Musk who said the memo published by Axios on Sunday night is the 'final straw.' President Donald Trump 's base are demanding answers and are furious that the latest revelations might mean that top officials like Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel are 'lying' to the American public. Musk railed against the Trump administration for not taking any action to arrest those related to Epstein's child sex trafficking crimes. A person familiar with Justice Department operations told the Daily Mail that the agency has refused to take the right steps to release information that remains under seal. 'The reality is simple: only the DOJ has the power to see, understand, and release what's under seal in this case — yet the American people are still waiting,' claimed the source, who was granted anonymity to discuss internal operations. Elon Musk was among those most critical of the latest memo and said it's the 'final straw' 'It's very likely that the Bureau has even seen the documents or evidence that is currently under seal,' they added. They also acknowledged that people feel Bondi is 'stonewalling' Americans and is 'peddling lies to mislead the public' – but insisted that they aren't falling for the trickle of non-information. Trump promised during his campaign that he would lead the release of troves of federal secrets, including the secret Epstein files and documents related to the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. Earlier this year, Bondi handed over to MAGA influencers binders of papers with information about Epstein's crimes. But it was quickly concluded that there were no new documents or information in the release. Since then, Trump loyalists have demanded that the DOJ and FBI release everything they have on Epstein. Bondi has repeatedly said that she has Epstein's files and would release the contents at the directive of Trump. Pro-Trump content creator Robby Starbuck posted a video of the Attorney General telling Fox News the client list was 'sitting on my desk right now to review.' 'Pam Bondi said the Epstein client list was on her desk to review for release to the public just a few months ago,' Starbuck posted. 'Now the DOJ she leads claims that there's no Epstein client list.' 'Sorry but this is unacceptable,' he insisted. 'Was she lying then or is she lying now? We deserve answers.' The joint DOJ and FBI memo obtained by Axios tells a different story than what Bondi has claimed in the past. The memo claims that the Trump administration is releasing a video that will show no one entered the area of the prison where Epstein was held the night he died in 2019. This supports the medical examiner's findings that Epstein died by suicide in the Manhattan prison. The memo also states that no one else involved in the case will be charged. Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell is already serving a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking.

Update revealed in Shannon Sharpe's bombshell sexual assault lawsuit as hearing fast approaches
It's been months since Pro Football Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe was slapped with a sexual assault lawsuit. The tight end's legal team has yet to file an official response. Sharpe was accused by a woman filing as 'Jane Doe' of assault, sexual assault, battery, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress with a woman in her 20s with whom he had a nearly two-year relationship. The media star and former three-time Super Bowl champion has repeatedly denied the claims. However, his legal team has yet to file an official response to the complaint, according to Pro Football Talk. Proceedings on three different motions are set to take place on July 9 after having been re-scheduled from June 30. PFT noted that responses are typically completed within 30 days of being served and that extensions are typically granted out of courtesy among lawyers. Sharpe's legal team did not immediately return request for comment. Lanny Davis, the lawyer representing Sharpe, told reporters in April that the former Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens star would be filing a counterclaim against the woman. Davis also said that Sharpe previously offered the woman 'at least $10million' to settle the case and claimed it was a 'big surprise' when the case was filed. Ms. Doe is being represented by Tony Buzzbee - the lawyer who litigated on behalf of more than 20 woman who accused NFL quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual assault back in 2021. The plaintiff is alleging that Sharpe assaulted her multiple times at the end of 2024 and into the beginning of 2025. The suit led to Sharpe taking a step back from his appearances on ESPN. It's unclear if Sharpe will be making a return to the company's airwaves. Sharpe also ended up cancelling a nationwide tour for his 'Nightcap' podcast that was planned for this summer. 'We've decided to postpone the Nightcap tour,' Sharpe said in a May episode of the podcast. 'We look forward to seeing you guys in the summer of 2026. It's going to be even bigger, even better. 'But Ocho and I have come to the conclusion that this is the best thing as of right now, was to postpone the tour. We look forward to seeing each and every one of you in 2026.'

Andrew in the CLEAR as FBI probe into pal Epstein reveals no one else will be charged over paedo's crimes
PRINCE Andrew is in the clear as the FBI has revealed no one else will be charged in its probe into Jeffrey Epstein's paedo crimes. The crime fighting agency hadn't ruled out charging the Duke of York in January but a new memo from the agency and the Department of Justice obtained by Axios has now done that. 7 7 The latest disclosure from the FBI has confirmed Epstein died by suicide and comes as the DoJ released the last footage of the financier alive. They believe no one else was involved in the financier's death and said there was no evidence of any "client list" used to blackmail powerful figures. Investigators found "no credible evidence … that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals" and no "evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties". The financier was in prison as he waited for a major trial over sex-trafficking charges after decades of sick activity with minors. Following his death conspiracies spread online and whether Epstein's death was a suicide became an open question. Andrew had feared to ever return to the US given the possibility he could be arrested. A pal of the Prince had previously told The Sun: 'He used to be Air Miles Andy but he'll never risk going to America again. "Since the whole thing blew up, he's only been to Bahrain, where he has friends. There hasn't been a single golf trip to Spain or holiday abroad.' Andrew, 64, paid millions to Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre in an out-of-court settlement three years ago, while denying sexual assault accusations. He stayed at Epstein's New York home, and was accused of taking part in an 'underage orgy' on Epstein's Caribbean island. Prince Andrew MUST 'come clean and confess' to Virginia Guiffre's family after tragic death, demands lawyer In 2020, the FBI asked the Home Office for help to quiz Andrew but that investigation was paused last year. New CCTV from inside the prison Epstein was detained in shows a grey-haired Jeffrey handcuffed in an orange jump suit being led to his cell by a guard at about 7.49pm. The pair move down a small flight of stairs on the left of the frame and walk to the right across the common area as they head to the cell. CCTV footage doesn't show Epstein's cell door but it would capture anyone walking to it, the DoJ said. 7 7 Other than the guard leaving, no one walks across the common area towards Epstein's cell or away from it. At approximately 10.39pm, a guard appeared to walk in the direction of Epstein's cell and then reappeared within view of the camera at 10.41pm. This is believed to be the last time anyone entered the area of Epstein's cell before the next morning. Guards can be seen walking around the common area at around 6.30am on the 10th as they deliver breakfast. At approximately 6.33am, more guards enter the common area and walk towards the area of Epstein's cell - presumably after he was found dead in his cell. The disgraced financier was found hanged in jail on the 10th, but speculation has been rife that others were involved. FBI deputy director Dan Bongino pledged to release the footage after it had been a Donald Trump campaign promise. Bongino wants to end all debate by releasing proof that no one entered or left the cell before the suicide. Andrew faced recently being dragged back into public focus after he was named in High Court papers when a former Barclays boss tried to overturn a regulator's ban. High Court files revealed Andy emailed Epstein in February 2011 saying 'we'll play some more soon'. But in his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview, Andrew said he ceased contact with Epstein in December 2010 after they were pictured in New York. Andrew was infamously pictured with his arm around her at Ghislaine Maxwell's home in London in 2001. 7
