Do you have an understanding of why this image was taken down?\u201d the committee asked Bondi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do. I believe that Deputy Attorney General Blanche or his staff believed that this was AI for some reason and not real,\u201d Bondi, 60, explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was taken down, but it was put back up,\u201d she added. \u201cI\u2019m not sure if it was intentionally taken down, but it was put back up because it was confirmed that it was Howard Lutnick and his family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked whether she had \u201cdirect or indirect knowledge\u201d that the photo was removed for political reasons, Bondi declined to answer.<\/p>\n<p>Bondi\u2019s comments are in contrast to what the DOJ claimed at the time. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis image was part of a batch of files that were flagged for nudity,\u201d a DOJ official said in February. \u201cThe batch of thousands of images was pulled for review and is being uploaded with necessary redactions on a rolling basis. No files are being deleted.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The DOJ did not immediately return the Daily Beast\u2019s request for comment on Bondi\u2019s testimony and apparent contradiction.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=738\">Leaked Memo Reveals Eyebrow-Raising Change at ICE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The picture of Lutnick was initially located by \u201cjmail,\u201d a site run by two tech workers who created a searchable version of Epstein\u2019s Gmail inbox by downloading all the latest released files.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, the group posted a link on its \u201cjmailarchive,\u201d to the image, which shows a DOJ file name. The file name, EFTA01230639, did not match any results in the DOJ\u2019s Epstein website, suggesting it had been deleted.<\/p>\n<p>Bondi told committee members that Trump\u2019s former personal lawyer, 51, \u201coversaw the entire investigation,\u201d and that he was in charge of determining which documents would be released to the public.<\/p>\n<p>She also frequently deferred responsibility to FBI Director Kash Patel over a number of issues raised by the committee.<\/p>\n<p>Lutnick himself appeared before the House Oversight Committee on May 6 after he gave contradictory remarks over his cozy relationship to Epstein.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Donald Trump had seen the video transcript, he would have fired Howard Lutnick,\u201d Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna, who spearheaded the EFTA, told reporters after the commerce secretary\u2019s hearing. \u201cIt was really embarrassing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite telling a New York Post podcast last year that he had cut off all contact with Epstein\u2013whose New York City home he moved his family next door to\u2013after he said he was creeped out by the financier\u2019s massage room, DOJ files proved that was untrue.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Files released as part of the Epstein Files Transparency Act revealed that Lutnick, 64, had corresponded with Epstein via email far later than he had claimed, including after the sex offender pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008 and even in 2018, a year before Epstein took his own life in his New York prison cell.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=736\">Sleepy Trump, 79, Slumps to the Side in Oval Office Briefing<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pam Bondi\u2019s excuse for why a photo of President Donald Trump\u2019s commerce secretary was wiped and subsequently re-added to the Justice Department\u2019s published documents of the Epstein files has been revealed.
