Former U.S. Attorney Pam Bondi will testify in the Epstein case
Former U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has agreed to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on May 29. The decision on the date of the hearing was made amid an escalating conflict in Congress, where Democrats were drafting a resolution regarding Bondi’s potential liability for contempt of Congress due to her previous refusal to cooperate.
This was reported by Politico.
The investigation concerns the activities of the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, specifically the role of the Department of Justice in the federal case against him. Committee members are trying to determine whether there was any abuse of power or undue influence on the investigation by senior officials.
The situation escalated on Wednesday morning when Republicans suddenly announced an agreed-upon date for Bondy’s appearance. This came as a surprise to Democratic Representative Robert Garcia, who was holding a briefing at that very moment regarding charges against Bondy for ignoring subpoenas.
As a reminder, Pam Bondy was removed from her position as attorney general shortly after Congress approved a subpoena to compel her to testify. Todd Blanche is currently serving in her capacity. The upcoming hearing on May 29 is considered critical to the investigation into Epstein’s ties to U.S. government officials.
