There's only really two possible scenarios.
1. The Trump admin lied about there being a list or rather, files, which implicates a lot of people, they lied for political capital and to goad on the Qanon/Pizzagate nutjobs. They lied about "having it on their desk" and lied about promising to release it. They lied about basically everything to do with the list/files and it never existed in the first place.
2. They didn't lie about there being files which implicate a lot of people (but still lied about promising to release it) but the reason they won't release it is either it implicates themselves or implicates their allies/friends, so they're protecting themselves and/or protecting their friends.
It's extremely unlikely after years of work by the FBI/DOJ they have fuck all on Epstein's associates, they likely have thousands of files investigating his connections. I also lean towards #2 because in the current shitshow, the best of two awful choices for the Trump admin right now would be to simply admit that they lied about there being a list for political gain.
They could have just made some bullshit up about how the Democrats in Biden's term shredded everything and so the Trump admin has to start from scratch, that will shut his fanbase up for a few years. Instead they've gone from "There's a list" to "We have the list" to "There's no list" to "The Democrats made the list" to "Shut up about the list!" to now straight up insulting his supporters.
What's likely is that there's simply a lot of very powerful people who all have their own receipts and dirt, in essence there is a lot of people with their own "mini-nuke" and anyone who fires their "nuke" first will cause MAD because the rest will then expose their dirt and receipts in revenge. It's powerful people protecting each other, not because they care for each other but due to self-preservation. There's obviously not some master list like "All My (Epstein) Pedo Friends". But there is definitely a lot of files which would implicate a lot of people if exposed.
