Enforce the Subpoena—Stop the Epstein Files Cover-Up

Attorney General Pam Bondi’s recent appearance before the House Oversight Committee was not testimony—it was an attempt to evade it. After being subpoenaed to testify under oath regarding the Department of Justice’s handling of the Epstein files, Attorney General Bondi instead staged a last-minute “briefing” and refused to commit to appearing under oath. Members of Congress walked out rather than legitimize what multiple members have described as a “fake hearing.” This is not a procedural disagreement. It is a direct challenge to Congress’s constitutional authority. A lawful subpoena cannot be replaced with an unsworn public relations appearance. If that precedent is allowed to stand, oversight itself becomes meaningless. Members of Congress have already begun to respond. Articles of impeachment have now been introduced, citing obstruction and defiance of congressional authority. Bipartisan concern is evident—Republicans joined Democrats in supporting the original subpoena. At the same time, deeply troubling information continues to emerge about the handling of the Epstein files. An unredacted document revealed by Congress directly contradicts Donald Trump’s claim that he banned Jeffrey Epstein from Mar-a-Lago—yet that information was withheld from the public. This raises serious concerns about selective redaction designed to protect a political narrative. Further, a previously undisclosed DEA investigation into Epstein and multiple associates for drug trafficking, prostitution, and money laundering appears to have been terminated without explanation, despite indications it was nearing indictments. When Congress requested unredacted, unclassified documents related to that investigation, the Department of Justice reportedly intervened to block their release. This pattern cannot be ignored. Across multiple agencies, information is being withheld, redacted, or blocked from congressional review. Officials are refusing to testify under oath. Investigations appear to have been halted without explanation. Meanwhile, Epstein survivors continue to pursue justice through the courts, including lawsuits against major financial institutions accused of enabling trafficking operations. Settlements are emerging, and financial networks tied to Epstein are coming into clearer focus—despite the government’s delays. Survivors are doing the work of accountability that the government is obstructing. This is not transparency. It is obstruction. The Epstein Files Transparency Act was intended to ensure accountability—not selective disclosure, delay, and interference. Congress must now follow through on its authority and enforce the law. I urge you to: • Enforce the subpoena compelling Attorney General Bondi to testify under oath • Support full compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act • Demand release of unredacted, unclassified Epstein-related documents • Investigate any political interference in withholding these materials No individual—regardless of office—is above the law. If subpoenas can be ignored and evidence concealed, it is not just oversight that fails—it is justice itself.
