Attorney General Pam Bondi’s attempt to quell the angry mob over her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal backfired when she brought dead mid-20th-century celebrities into the mix.

The backlash came after the Department of Justice sent a six-page letter to Congress listing 130 names of “all government officials and politically exposed persons” mentioned in the Epstein files—an effort some critics are slamming as “obstruction.”

The letter included names for a wide range of reasons, from people Epstein corresponded with frequently to those he merely mentioned in conversation and never met. Among them were Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, and Janis Joplin. Monroe died in 1962, when the disgraced financier was 9.

The list does contain those already known to be associated with Epstein, including President Donald Trump, Les Wexner, and Steve Bannon. It also name-drops several of Trump’s most loathed foes, including former presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden, Democratic donor and actor George Clooney, and lawmakers Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna, who are spearheading the release of the Epstein files.

The six-page letter also includes a list of all "government officials and politically exposed persons" in the files.
