Down the Pam Bondi Rabbit Hole

How Florida’s Former AG Turned Prosecution Into Pay-to-Play

I fell down a Pam Bondi rabbit hole today while researching if she had any connections to Epstein while she was the Attorney General of Florida - and while I could not find any direct connection between the two - what I did find was absolutely bonkers.

First, the timeline everyone’s screwing up: Bondi ran Florida from 2011 to 2019. Epstein’s sweetheart deal went down in 2008 under federal prosecutor Alex Acosta. So all these conspiracy nuts claiming she covered up Epstein crimes apparently never learned to count.

But what I uncovered instead makes Epstein look like amateur hour.

Picture this: September 2013. Bondi’s office is reviewing fraud complaints against Trump University. Twenty separate consumer complaints sitting on her desk. She picks up the phone and personally calls Trump asking for $25,000. Four days later, the check arrives. Suddenly, those fraud complaints vanish like they never existed.

Plot twist - the donation was completely illegal. Charitable foundations can’t make political contributions. The IRS eventually fined Trump, forced him to reimburse the foundation, and by 2019 the entire Trump Foundation was shut down with Trump paying $2 million in damages. Trump University? Settled for $25 million proving every other state attorney general was right to pursue the case Bondi killed.

But wait - there’s more.

That same year, Bondi convinced Governor Rick Scott to postpone Marshall Lee Gore’s execution. Gore had raped and murdered two women. His scheduled death date? September 10th. Problem? Bondi had a campaign fundraiser that night.

Then I found the foreclosure fraud cover-up. In 2011, Bondi fired two experienced attorneys investigating mortgage fraud following the robosigning crisis. Their target? Jacksonville-based Lender Processing Services. Their crime? LPS had donated to Bondi’s campaign and the attorneys were asking uncomfortable questions.

Both lawyers got the same ultimatum: resign or be terminated. Their expertise in mortgage fraud cases meant nothing once they started following the money that led back to Bondi’s donors.

Apparently, Bondi aggressively prosecuted fraud cases against institutions that didn’t pay her while giving free passes to those that opened their wallets. She went nuclear on Keiser University but somehow couldn’t find evidence against Trump University despite identical complaints.

And if campaign cash wasn’t enough, Bondi maintained cozy relationships with Scientology throughout her tenure. She accepted donations from prominent Scientologists and spoke at events in Clearwater while the FBI was investigating the organization for human trafficking.

Then, in 2018, while still collecting her taxpayer funded salary as Florida’s AG, Bondi co-hosted Fox News’ “The Five” for three straight days. Fox News lied and said the Florida Commission on Ethics approved it. The commission had to issue a public statement denying they ever made such determination.

But none of that prepared me for the Qatar connection.

From 2019 to 2020, Bondi registered as a foreign agent lobbying for Qatar. Her firm’s contract? $115,000 per month. Her official mission? Helping Qatar with “anti-human trafficking efforts” for the 2022 World Cup.

Sure, Jan.

It’s insane that all of this is public knowledge and somehow she still ended up the AG for the US.

Last week, Bondi personally signed a Justice Department memo approving Trump’s acceptance of a $400 million luxury jet from the Qatari royal family. The same government she used to lobby for just handed her boss a flying palace worth 4,000 times more than the gold bars that sent Senator Bob Menendez to prison for 11 years.

During confirmation hearings, Senator Dick Durbin asked why she didn’t disclose her Qatar work as a conflict of interest. Bondi’s response? She was “very proud” of her Qatar lobbying and wished it had lasted longer.

America’s top law enforcement officer is publicly nostalgic about taking foreign money to help an authoritarian regime whitewash human rights abuses. And now she’s making legal decisions that benefit her former clients.

To complete the circle, one of Bondi’s first acts as AG was announcing reduced enforcement of foreign lobbying laws. Prosecuting other foreign lobbyists apparently feels awkward when you used to be one yourself.

This brings us full circle to her current Epstein disaster. As I’m sure you’ve heard, Bondi went on Fox News claiming she had Epstein’s “client list” sitting on her desk. She promised bombshells, teased massive revelations, got conspiracy theorists drooling over coming exposés.

Then she delivered recycled flight logs and redacted contact lists that had been public for years.

Last week, the Justice Department released a memo saying there is no Epstein client list. The document she claimed was on her desk doesn’t exist.

But this isn’t incompetence - it’s brand consistency. Bondi has spent her entire career promising accountability while delivering access to the highest bidder. She promised to investigate fraud but only when politically convenient. She promised justice but postponed executions for dinner parties. She promised transparency on Epstein but delivered theater.

So while there is no smoking gun connecting Bondi to Epstein, there is a decades-long pattern of treating prosecutorial power like a personal piggy bank, complete with foreign government sponsorship and a $400 million conflict of interest flying overhead.

She’s not only covering up Epstein’s crimes, she’s continuing to perpetrate her own.
