President Donald Trump held his sixth Cabinet meeting of the year, focusing on topics like Texas flooding, the war in Ukraine, and Iran. When asked about reports from Dutch and German intelligence that Russia used chemical weapons in Ukraine, Trump deferred to CIA Director John Ratcliffe. Ratcliffe stated that chemical weapon use, if confirmed, violates international law but declined to share classified intelligence publicly.
Another key moment came when a reporter questioned Attorney General Pam Bondi about a DOJ memo denying the existence of a Jeffrey Epstein “client list” or evidence of foul play in his death. Bondi clarified her previous comments, saying the Epstein case file was awaiting review alongside JFK and MLK files. She also addressed missing jail footage, saying the video confirmed Epstein acted alone but admitted it was inconclusive.
The DOJ released surveillance footage from Epstein’s cellblock, claiming no one entered the area overnight. However, viewers noticed a missing 59 seconds in the timestamp, fueling further speculation about the official story of Epstein’s death.
“That’s right,” Trump responded. “Thank you.”
