'Really?' Pam Bondi buried on MS NOW for dragging Marilyn Monroe into Epstein saga

A massive list of names discovered in the Jeffrey Epstein files, which was released over the weekend by Attorney General Pam Bondi, contained a handful of celebrities, including one who died when the accused sex trafficker was still a child.

That led to rolled eyes from MS NOW host Alex Witt on Monday afternoon when she joined the pile-on of the Donald Trump appointee for yet another effort to muddy the waters as she drags her feet on doing anything for the Epstein victims.

Less than a week after Bondi turned in a nationally-televised abrasive performance before the House Judiciary Committee, where she avoided eye contact with victims who have yet to be interviewed by the DOJ, her office released the list that curiously included, among others, Kurt Cobain, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe and Janis Joplin.

Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) complained, “To have Janis Joplin, who died when Epstein was 17, in the same list as Larry Nassar, who went to prison for the sexual abuse of hundreds of young women and child pornography, with no clarification of how either was mentioned in the files is absurd. Release the full files. Stop protecting predators. Redact only the survivor's names.”

MS NOW’s Ken Dilanian explained, “They're doing what commercial litigants do all the time. They dump people in, they dump information on their opponents and say, ‘You guys sort it out.’ So we are left not knowing the meaning of some of these names, why they're included. They didn't have to do that, they could have been more specific, they chose not to.”

“Nonetheless, the Justice Department is arguing that they have been fully transparent here, and they're doing the best they can under some very difficult circumstances,” he added.

“I don't know, man,” the obviously skeptical Witt replied. “Marilyn Monroe? She died in 1962. I mean, Jeffrey Epstein was 9 years old. Really? That one is really quite extraordinary, that one.”
