Overview
- President Trump ordered the release of select grand jury testimony on Epstein, which represents only a small portion of documents Democrats argue should be made public.
- Attorney General Pam Bondi reversed an earlier pledge, stating no client list exists and dismissing claims that Epstein blackmailed associates.
- Representative Jasmine Crockett labeled Trump a “wannabe Hitler” and accused Republicans of skipping a key vote to demonstrate loyalty rather than push for transparency.
- Democratic lawmakers introduced legislation to mandate full publication of Epstein grand jury records, attracting support from a handful of GOP defectors.
- Most House Republicans have resisted calls for a comprehensive release, maintaining that the limited files made public suffice despite growing demands for accountability.
