Bondi Doesn’t Commit to Deposition With House Panel Over Epstein Files

Attorney General Pam Bondi has not committed to complying with a House oversight committee subpoena requiring her to testify about Epstein-related files. The Republican-led panel issued the summons under its oversight authority, with the committee's GOP chairman noting he sent it reluctantly. Bondi's refusal to commit to the deposition creates potential tension between the Trump administration and Congress over access to sensitive documents and testimony related to the Epstein matter. The standoff raises questions about whether the Justice Department will cooperate with congressional oversight or invoke executive privilege protections. The outcome depends on whether Bondi's office formally responds to the subpoena or whether the committee pursues enforcement.
