U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has been subpoenaed by Congress to testify regarding the Justice Department's handling of Jeffrey Epstein investigation files. The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform ordered Bondi to appear for a deposition on April 14.
The subpoena follows a vote supported by five Republicans, signaling discontent within President Donald Trump's base over document redactions. Committee Chairman James Comer cited concerns over compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
The Justice Department labeled the subpoena unnecessary, noting officials offered private briefings instead. Critics accuse the agency of over-redacting files or exposing victim information, claims the DOJ denies. Bondi remains under scrutiny as the administration navigates the release of millions of documents.
