FBI personnel reportedly devoted more than 3,000 hours of overtime to obtaining and redacting the Epstein Files back in March, at the direction of FBI Director Kash Patel – only to have President Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi throw cold war on the release.
After Attorney General Pam Bondi’s botched attempt to release “Phase 1” of the Epstein files in February, Patel ordered around 1,000 FBI agents to team up and dedicate extensive hours to adding more to “Phase 1” and preparing “Phase 2” of the files for release.
