In Trump's world, there's no room for loyalty when you fuck up.

Carl Gibson reports:
However, Bondi recently attempted to walk those statements back, saying that she meant to say Epstein's DOJ file — not his famed client list — was what was on her desk, and that there was no client list. During a Tuesday Cabinet meeting, reporters peppered Bondi with questions attempting to get the attorney general to give further clarification on the Epstein list, which prompted Trump to directly intervene. 
"The list? There was no list ever on her desk, because there is no list. That was a sensationalized thing. Why did she say that? I don’t know,” a Trump administration official anonymously told Semafor. “She’s the one that’s been continuously overpromising for months.”
