Musk defends Bondi amid Epstein files release controversy

Elon Musk publicly defended Attorney General Pam Bondi following the release of Jeffrey Epstein files that disappointed many observers due to their lack of new information. Bondi faced backlash for the rollout, which included previously released flight logs and contact details rather than new revelations. Musk argued that Bondi is contending with a 'leftist culture' within the Justice Department and FBI, suggesting that she requires time to navigate the complexities of her role. He emphasized that her challenges stem from being appointed to a position with a 'hostile crew' left over from the previous administration. Critics, including conspiracy theorists and lawmakers, expressed outrage over the perceived inadequacies of the document release. Despite the criticism, Musk's comments aimed to bolster Bondi's efforts and underscore the difficulties she faces in her new position.
