Epstein files: House committee subpoenas Attorney General Pam Bondi
Attorney General Pam Bondi faces bipartisan subpoena to testify about DOJ's withheld and heavily redacted Epstein files amid ongoing demands for transparency and justice.
- On Wednesday, U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace moved to subpoena Attorney General Bondi, saying 'I move that the committee issue a subpoena to the Honorable Pamela Jo Bondi to appear before the committee for a deposition regarding the department's handling of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and his associates and compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.'
- The Epstein Files Transparency Act required the DOJ to release all Epstein files by December 19, but critics say the DOJ released only 1-2% of files with excessive redactions.
- During file review, lawmakers discovered tracked search histories and blocked or redacted records, and after a Department of Justice visit, Mace said key documents were missing or heavily redacted.
- The committee's maneuvering came as the investigation secured depositions from former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who denied recalling a meeting with Epstein.
- With three million documents released, advocates and victims say millions more documents remain withheld, affecting justice and making the Epstein files a defining saga of the second Trump administration.
