Megyn Kelly Says Pam Bondi's ‘Days Are Numbered' Over Epstein
'Her days are numbered as a member of the Trump administration,' Kelly declared on her show Tuesday as the internal MAGA fallout over the Epstein files continues.
Bondi had previously declared that the alleged child sex trafficker's client list was 'sitting on her desk' in February, before backtracking this week to declare that there was no list and the case was no closed. Kelly slammed Bondi over the inconsistencies Tuesday, pointing to the supposed Epstein bombshell binders Trump loyalists posed with months ago.
'Pam Bondi knew she was about to embarrass some of his most loyal surrogates out there, and did that willingly, or she didn't take the time to make sure what was in those binders,' Kelly said. 'It was all publicly released information that had already been out there…She was too lazy to actually figure out none of this is new, and yet she called a meeting with the influencers that included Kash Patel, the head of the FBI, and the sitting vice president.'
'Then she acted indignant. She didn't know. It was the sleazy FBI who had withheld the real documents from her,' Kelly ranted. 'She was going to get to the bottom of it. Then she said further release would come. One did not come. Then she was caught on tape saying there are tens of thousands of kiddie porn or child pornography material that we found, which again, is like, a third issue over here. And next thing we know there's no there there.'
Despite her misgivings about the way Bondi handled the case, Kelly insisted there is no conspiracy afoot.
She said, 'I believe it's government incompetence as opposed to big government machinations against us,' but 'in this case, I don't know what's happening. Bondi has confused me. I don't know what she's doing.'
And that, according to Kelly, is why Bondi's days in Trump's administration will come to an end soon. 'If you look at conservative Twitter, she's right in the crosshairs.'

GOP Rep's Response To Donald Trump's Slam Of ‘Weaklings' Base Is Just… Wow
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) brushed off President Donald Trump's harsh words for his own supporters on Wednesday with a comment that's been mocked online as sycophantic and surreal. Trump lashed out at those of his MAGA base who are furious with the Justice Department's refusal to release any more documents related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, calling them 'stupid.' Asked for his response to Trump's slamming of his own supporters, Burchett spun: 'President Trump has his own opinions, but honestly, man, he wins.' CNN: What's your response to President Trump calling his own supporters weaklings? Burchett: He has a strategy in all this and I suspect it will play out because he wins every time. — Acyn (@Acyn) July 17, 2025 Trump 'has a strategy in all this and I suspect that's gonna play out because, dad-gummit, he wins every dad-gum time,' the Republican added, playing into the MAGA notion that Trump always knows exactly what he's doing at any given time because he's playing 4D chess. 'It's uncanny that he ends up on top,' Burchett added. 'And I suspect on this case he will do as well.'

Faith Leaders Can Now Endorse. Will That Swing the N.Y.C. Mayor's Race?
Four days after his remarkable showing in New York's Democratic mayoral primary, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani appeared at the Harlem headquarters of a group headed by the Rev. Al Sharpton. He acknowledged the leaders and biblical scriptures that fueled his campaign. 'Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning,' Mr. Mamdani said, a reference to Psalm 30:5, a scripture that is especially popular in Black churches. 'And it has been night for far too long in this city.' Mr. Mamdani did not come to the gathering on June 28, for the National Action Network, explicitly seeking an endorsement from the faith leaders in the crowd. But under a new rule change from the I.R.S., he and his opponents in the mayoral race may be able to secure one without tax repercussions. The I.R.S. said in a court filing last week that houses of worship could endorse political candidates to their congregations without losing their tax-exempt status. The move was initially seen as the agency's formal termination of a longstanding but spottily enforced rule against campaigning from the pulpit. But in New York, the ruling could also open up a new front in the city's heated mayoral race, offering candidates the chance to formally consolidate support from not only faith leaders but their congregations.

Squabble Over Safety in N.Y.C. Subway Erupts at Congressional Hearing
How safe is the New York City subway? A Manhattan congressman, who has taken the train for years, and the U.S. secretary of transportation, who rode the subway a few stops in April, drew two starkly different conclusions at a tense public meeting on Wednesday. Each man called the other a liar. The subway is, in fact, much safer than its critics have argued, according to police figures. But detractors have latched onto a recent surge in assaults and the shocking details of a handful of high-profile crimes to paint the subway as lawless and in need of intervention. Wednesday's heated exchange in Washington, part of an hourslong oversight hearing, was the latest skirmish between New York officials and the Trump administration over the state of the city's transit system. Representative Jerrold Nadler, a Democrat and a senior member of the House transportation committee, said that Sean Duffy, the head of the Transportation Department, had distorted statistics to make the subway seem more dangerous than it is. Major crime in the subway — which includes murder, rape, assault and other felonies — was down 3 percent through June, compared with the same period last year. Since the first half of 2019, before the pandemic, major crime was down 8 percent. In pointed questioning, Mr. Nadler asked if Mr. Duffy was aware of the trend. 'No, that's wrong,' Mr. Duffy said, before adding that assaults, one of the most worrisome categories of crime in the subway, had risen sharply. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
