The murder of Khashoggi is so amusing to Trump.
The only other time he cackled like that was when he hosted two Russian ex-KGB agents in the Oval Office—and forbade American media to attend.

Trump can pardon everyone involved in the Epstein files cover up-so they can’t be prosecuted. And state indictments might not even be possible
That’s why Congressional inherent contempt might be the only way to punish Pam Bondi. Most scholars believe they are impervious to presidential pardons
