Overview

• Representatives Ro Khanna and Marc Veasey filed amendments to compel a House vote on the unredacted publication of all Justice Department Epstein files.
• A July 6 joint DOJ-FBI memo concluded Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide and found no credible evidence of a secret “client list,” contradicting long-held MAGA conspiracy theories.
• Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino and other officials clashed with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the memo’s handling, prompting discussions of resignations and deepening internal tensions.
• President Trump publicly defended Bondi’s work, blamed Democratic predecessors for earlier nondisclosure, and urged supporters to move on but failed to quell their anger.
• Democratic lawmakers argue full transparency is vital to meeting survivor demands and restoring public trust after years of heavily redacted document releases.
