The attorney general refused to address the criticism she's faced from President Donald Trump's MAGA base over her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

It usually works the other way around, but the Epstein files furor now has the White House turned so inside-out that bewildered aides have been quietly reaching out to CNN for clarity over what on earth is going on in their own administration.

Several of President Trump’s top officials went to work Monday with a key question unanswered: Would Dan Bongino show up for work today?

Bongino took a personal day on Friday and was mulling resigning after a heated exchange with AG Pam Bondi, The Post previously reported.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino reportedly returned to work Monday, but his future in the Trump administration still remains unclear.

Dan Bongino clashed with Attorney General Pam Bondi and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles in a heated meeting about the Epstein memo that found no client list existed.

A lawsuit filed Monday against Trump, Education Secretary Linda McMahon, and Office of Budgement Management Director Russell Vought claimed that the Trump administration had “caused chaos” for K-12 school districts by refusing to distribute funding to six long-standing grant programs.

Deputy FBI director Dan Bongino did not go into the office Friday and largely excommunicated himself from most of his colleagues after a major fallout with Attorney General Pam Bondi. CNN’s Evan Perez breaks down the situation and how it began over the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
