Kash Patel Appears To Contradict Pam Bondi When Pressed by Rogan on Existence of ‘Thousands’ of Epstein Island Videos
FBI Director Kash Patel appeared to contradict Attorney General Pam Bondi while being pressed by Joe Rogan on the existence of Epstein videos.
Patel joined Rogan on The Joe Rogan Experience this week and during a lengthy conversation on the late Jeffrey Epstein, Patel dumped some cold water on conspiracy theories centered on the existence of videos from Epstein’s private island where he was accused of trafficking and assaulting women and underage girls along with associates he flew there. The trouble is Bondi is one of the loudest voices that did say such videos exist.
“We’re gonna give you everything we can, and people have to remember, we’re not gonna re-victimize women. We’re not going to put that shit back out there. It’s not happening, because then he wins. Not doing it. You want to hate me for it, fine,” Patel said as Rogan asked about possible Epstein footage.
The FBI director added, however, that if there were footage of people committing felonies on Epstein’s island, he would likely see it.
“If there was a video of some guy or gal committing felonies on an island and I’m in charge, don’t you think you’d see it?” he said.
Rogan pressed further on the videos, asking if Patel and his team have reviewed everything. Patel said he has and they are now trying to figure out how to best put it all out there. He argued though that the footage is going to disappoint conspiracy theorists everywhere.
“Is there video from the island?” Rogan asked.
“Not of what you want,” Patel said. “The people out there have filled the void with, ‘can’t wait to see X, Y, or Z.'”
“So this narrative might not be accurate, that there’s video of these guys doing this?” Rogan pressed.
“Exactly,” Patel confirmed.
“Is it possible that the video was taken and destroyed?” Rogan asked.
“Well, you’re talking about, what, decades worth of stuff, right? Remember, what we have pursuant to lawful search warrants and authorities from the case that was done however many years ago was done, that’s what we had. If other people have other stuff, then they want to give it to us, bring it,” Patel said.
The FBI director struck a very different tone from that of Bondi when she has spoken about Epstein. While speaking to reporters last month, Bondi referenced “tens of thousands of videos,” some of which included “child porn.”
“There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn and there are hundreds of victims,” she told reporters at the White House. “And no one victim will ever get released. It’s just the volume and that’s what they’re going through right now. The FBI is diligently going through that.”
