The House Oversight Subcommittee on Federal Law Enforcement voted on Wednesday to subpoena the Department of Justice (DOJ) to release all of the Epstein files with three Republicans joining the Democrat motion.
This comes as President Trump asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to release the sealed grand jury transcripts.
I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval,” Trump announced over the weekend. “This SCAM, perpetuated by the Democrats, should end, right now!”
On Wednesday, however, an Obama-appointed federal judge denied the Justice Department’s bid to unseal Jeffrey Epstein grand jury transcripts from a Florida investigation, the Gateway Pundit reported.
Now, a House Oversight subcommittee has voted on a motion to subpoena all of the records that have not been released by the Trump Administration.
Per CNN:
A House Oversight subcommittee voted Wednesday to subpoena the Department of Justice to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein. House Oversight Chair James Comer will be required to sign the subpoena before it can officially be issued, according to committee rules.
The motion to subpoena the Trump DOJ for all records related to the Epstein investigation passed, 8-2.
GOP Reps. Nancy Mace, Scott Perry and Brian Jack joined with the subpanel’s four Democrats and the full committee’s ranking member Robert Garcia to approve the subpoena in a defiant move of House GOP leadership that wanted to leave the handling of the Epstein files to the Trump administration.
Rep. Summer Lee, the subcommittee’s top Democrat, had offered the motion.
Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) will have to sign off on the subpoena to make it official.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the House Oversight Committee also voted to subpoena Epstein-affiliate Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-years sentence for recruiting and sex-trafficking underage girls for Epstein to groom and abuse.
Chairman Comer announced on Wednesday that he issued the subpoena for a deposition to occur at Federal Correctional Institution Tallahassee on August 11, 2025.
This is a developing story.
