Democrats walk out in protest over ‘outrageous fake’ Epstein briefing from Pam Bondi

AI Summary

medium article 3 min

House Oversight Committee Democrats walked out of a closed-door briefing on Wednesday led by former Attorney General Pam Bondi regarding the release of Jeffrey Epstein files. The Democrats protested Bondi's refusal to commit to testifying under oath before the committee, which had subpoenaed her to answer questions about the Justice Department's handling of the Epstein investigation files. Democrats expressed distrust of Bondi, citing past actions, while Republicans defended the briefing. The dispute arose from bipartisan frustration over the Justice Department's management and release of millions of files related to Epstein's sex trafficking case. The incident further intensified political tensions surrounding the Epstein case, despite the Justice Department's efforts to resolve the matter.
