Republican Rep. Thomas Massie said he has no confidence in Attorney General Pam Bondi based on the way she conducted herself during a combative hearing before the House Judiciary Committee last week and labeled Donald Trump's second presidency as the "Epstein Administration" during an exclusive interview with ABC News' This Week co-anchor Martha Raddatz.

"I don't think she did very well," Massie told ABC News' This Week co-anchor Martha Raddatz. "She came with a book full of insults, one for each congressperson. She obviously had one for me."

"She wasn’t confident enough to engage in anything but name-calling in a hearing," he added. "So no, I don’t have confidence in her. She hasn’t got any sort of accountability there at the DOJ."

Massie initially became a target of Trump when he criticized his airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities last June and later led a discharge petition with Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna aimed at forcing the Justice Department to publish the full Epstein files late last year, with the president eventually changing his public stance on releasing the files and shifting blame solely on the Democrats before signing the measure into law.

"Donald Trump told us that even though he had dinner with these people in New York City and West Palm Beach, that he would be transparent, but he's not. He's still in with the Epstein class. This is the Epstein administration,” Massie said via ABC News. “There are billionaires that are friends with these people, and that’s what I’m up against in D.C.”

Raddatz clarified that Trump has not been accused of anything criminal during the interview with Massie. Bondi gave a list of the 300 notable names included in the files connected with Epstein and said all related files have been released consistent with Section 3 of the Epstein Files Transparency Act in a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Saturday (February 14), which was obtained and shared by FOX News.

"In accordance with the requirements of the Act, and as described in various Department submissions to the courts of the Southern District of New York assigned to the Epstein and Maxwell prosecutions and related orders, the Department released all ‘records, documents, communications and investigative materials in the possession of the Department’ that ‘relate to’ any of nine different categories," the letter states.

The list includes several notable names including President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, former Presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, entrepreneurs Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg and numerous others. The list includes "all persons where (1) they are or were a government official or politically exposed person and (2) their name appears in the files released under the [Epstein Files Transparency] Act at least once," the letter stated, clarifying that the names appear in a "wide variety of contexts" and don't necessarily imply any wrongdoing or even direct contact with Epstein.

The letter was specifically addressed to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), ranking member Dick Durbin (D-Illinois), House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-Maryland).
