Overview

• The committee published the full transcript of Bill Barr’s deposition, where he described calling President Trump about Epstein’s 2019 jail death and reiterated his conclusion that the evidence showed suicide.
• Barr told investigators he had no knowledge of evidence tying Trump to criminal conduct through Epstein and suggested such evidence would likely have surfaced if it existed.
• Chairman James Comer requested complete, unredacted cash ledgers, message logs, calendars and flight logs after staff reviewed them in camera, citing notes about scheduling young females and thousands of payments that he said raise serious questions.
• Epstein’s estate delivered a second tranche that included previously redacted birthday‑book content with an unredacted name and another address book, with names in “Massage — New York (a/b)” and “Massage — UK” sections withheld from public release to protect potential victims while allowing committee access to the originals.
• Letters from former Attorneys General Alberto Gonzales and Jeff Sessions said they lack relevant information, committee aides said their subpoenas were withdrawn, and FBI Director Kash Patel told senators the files show no credible evidence Epstein trafficked women to others.
