众议院监督委员会已传唤总检察长帕姆·邦迪,就其涉嫌隐瞒与杰弗里·埃普斯坦有关的文件进行证词。在众议员南希·梅斯领导下,立法者指责司法部(DOJ)阻碍透明度,尽管《埃普斯坦透明法案》规定公开所有调查材料。 司法部最初发布了超过300万份文件,但声称仍将有250万份文件保密。随着监督机构和记者报道,数千份先前可用的文件——总计超过65,000页,包括可能包含敏感信息的FBI访谈摘要——从公共数据库中消失,担忧情绪升级。 这场争端尤其棘手,因为一些被隐瞒的记录据称涉及对知名人士的指控,包括前总统唐纳德·特朗普。司法部尚未解释这些文件的删除或继续隐瞒,这加剧了“掩盖”的指控。四名共和党人加入了民主党人,批准了传票,表明了对该情况的两党担忧。

House investigators are hauling in Attorney General Pam Bondi to answer for what lawmakers say is a troubling disappearance of documents tied to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

The House Oversight Committee voted 24-19 on Wednesday to subpoena Bondi for a deposition, escalating a fight with the Department of Justice over its handling of records from the sprawling Epstein investigation. Lawmakers say the DOJ may have pulled tens of thousands of pages from public view despite a federal law requiring the material to be released.

The move was spearheaded by Rep. Nancy Mace, who blasted the Justice Department earlier in the day and accused officials of misleading the public about what has actually been disclosed. [Though we would point out that Mace herself vowed to reveal her tits, only to redact them with grainy footage.]

“AG Bondi claims the DOJ has released all of the Epstein files. The record is clear: they have not,” Mace wrote on X, calling the saga “one of the greatest cover-ups in American history.”

Four Republicans - Reps. Lauren Boebert, Scott Perry, Tim Burchett and Michael Cloud - joined Democrats on the panel to force the subpoena through.

The dispute centers on the Epstein Transparency Act, passed almost unanimously by Congress last year. The law ordered the Justice Department to publicly release its trove of investigative material related to Epstein and his convicted accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

In January, the DOJ released more than 3 million documents tied to the case. But the department later said it would not release the remaining files, estimated to include another 2.5 million documents.

Since then, watchdogs and journalists say the situation has gotten even murkier.

According to reports, thousands of records that had briefly been available online have vanished from the public database. CBS News reported Tuesday that more than 47,000 files - totaling about 65,500 pages - were taken down by late February.

Some of the withheld records reportedly included internal FBI interview summaries and notes - including material tied to a woman who has accused President Donald Trump of sexual abuse when she was a minor.

Trump has never been charged with wrongdoing in connection with Epstein and has said he had no knowledge of the financier’s criminal conduct.

The Justice Department has not publicly explained why the documents were removed or why millions more remain under wraps. CNBC said the DOJ did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Bondi’s forthcoming deposition could become one of the most explosive congressional confrontations yet in the long-running battle over the Epstein records - a case that has fueled years of speculation about powerful figures tied to the late sex offender.
