During his remarks, Trump asked Bondi if she felt like answering the reporter's question. "I don't mind answering," the attorney general replied. When the president finished speaking, Bondi addressed the reporter and cited an interview she did with Fox News in February, which she said had "been getting a lot of attention."

White House officials disputed the idea that the unrest in MAGA ranks seriously threatens President Trump’s support.

Bondi said she had no problem answering the reporters questions on whether Epstein worked for a U.S. or Israeli intelligence agency -- Bondi said she would have to look into it -- or why a minute was missing from the 11-hour jailhouse video released by authorities Monday.
