Department of Justice says former Attorney General Pam Bondi will not appear for House Oversight Committee deposition on Epstein files
The Department of Justice informed the House Oversight Committee that former Attorney General Pam Bondi will not comply with a subpoena for a scheduled April 14 deposition regarding her handling of the Epstein files. The DOJ argues the subpoena is no longer valid because it was issued when Bondi served as Attorney General and she was removed from office by President Trump last week. Some Republicans and Democrats on the committee say they will pursue enforcement of the subpoena and threaten contempt charges.
