00:00Do you swear or affirm under penalty of perjury that the testimony you're about to give is true
00:06and correct to the best of your knowledge, information, and beliefs? So help you God.
00:11In May, Attorney General Bondi reportedly told Trump that his name had indeed appeared
00:15multiple times throughout the Epstein files. And not long thereafter, in July,
00:21you and the Attorney General released a memo claiming that, quote,
00:24no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted. In a few short months,
00:30how did you go from being a crusader for accountability and transparency for the Epstein files
00:35to being a part of the conspiracy and cover up? The answer is simple.
00:40You said it yourself because of who's on that list.
00:44Dr. Patel, before you joined the FBI, you railed against it for covering up Jeffrey.
00:49That's what we're working with.
00:50Wait, have you released all of the stuff that the FBI has seized from Epstein's house?
00:56The computers, the emails, the file cabinets, the documents?
00:59What about the financial records? Have you released all of that?
01:02Everything the court has allowed us to release.
01:04Which court are you talking about?
01:05Three separate federal courts have come in and said.
01:08We're talking about the evidence you've got. It's got nothing to do with what those courts have.
01:12Do you have any idea how the law works?
01:14Do you want me to break the law in a federal judge's order to satisfy your curiosity?
01:17No, I want you to follow your own word, Director Patel.
01:20You said up there it was under the direct control of the FBI director.
01:24He had the black book.
01:25And everything I have direct control over, we have gone to court.
01:29You haven't.
01:29Complete your sentence. Everything.
01:31Clear. How many of the Epstein files were released in the four years of the Biden administration?
01:35Zero.
01:35I'm asking about why you aren't releasing the full Epstein files, including the names of people who were involved in the sex ring that you promised to do before you became FBI director.
01:50I just told you I'm not going to release downloaded porn.
01:53I'm not asking about that. Fine.
01:54I'm asking about all the other files.
01:57What other videos? Tell me.
01:59Tell me.
02:00That's what I'm asking.
02:01Tell me.
02:01You're saying there are no videos that would be relevant to anyone else involved in the Jeffrey Epstein sex ring.
02:07Pursuant to Mr. Acosta's collection of information based on the search warrants.
02:13That's all we have in our possession.
02:15And I'm asking you that stuff.
02:17That's all we got.
02:17I'm not asking all you got.
02:19I'm asking you in that stuff.
02:20There's nothing that's related to any other sex traffic, any other people engaged with Epstein in underage sex.
02:28That's correct.
02:28To my knowledge, no.
02:29Okay.
02:30Director, is President Trump implicated in any wrongdoing related to Jeffrey Epstein?
02:38Based on the entirety of the evidence that we have, absolutely not.
02:41The president is not implicated.
02:44Correct.
02:46We know these people exist in the FBI files, the files that you control.
02:50I don't know exactly who they are, but the FBI does.
02:54Have you launched any investigations into any of these people?
02:58And have you seen these 302 documents?
03:02Sir, I have asked my FBI agents to review the entirety of the Epstein files and bring forth any credible information.
03:11And we're working with Congress not only to divulge that information and produce it to you,
03:14but any investigations that arise from any credible investigation will be brought.
03:18There have been no new materials brought to me launching a new indictment.
03:22Will you meet with the victims as well?
03:25The FBI will meet with anyone who has no information.
03:28Will you personally meet with them?
03:30The FBI and the professionals who are handling the cases will.
03:34Yesterday, you testified to Senator Kennedy that there was, quote,
03:38no credible information that Epstein trafficked girls to anyone else,
03:42and that you have, quote, continuously and publicly asked the public to come forward with more information,
03:48and we'll look into it.
03:50Today, in response to Mr. Massey's question,
03:54you appear to say that the survivors were not credible.
04:00These are survivors.
04:02That's not at all what I said.
04:03Okay, great.
04:04I'm going to ask you this in a second, but let me tell you about the survivors.
04:07And let's bring them up here into the room.
04:10These are women who came to the Hill and testified that they were groomed and raped at the age of 14 and 16 years old,
04:19and they called to meet with the president and to meet with the FBI and to have people investigate their claims.
04:27Some of them have never testified before.
04:29If you are so interested in getting the public to submit any information, why have you not met with them?
04:35You said you haven't met with them.
04:36Have you met with them?
04:37I'll give you one more chance.
04:39My job as the FBI director is to invite all investigative leads.
04:42Is the answer yes or no to whether or not you met with these women who were sexually abused and raped?
04:50Any insinuation by you or any people on your side that I am not manhunting child predators and sex traffickers,
04:57just look at the stats, and you talk about cover-ups, man.
05:00Mr. Chairman, this is my time, and I will take as much time as I want.
05:04Where were you during the Obama and Biden administrations when these so-called cover-ups were going on?
05:10Why did anyone in those administrations talk to any of these purported witnesses?
05:15And, you know, my Democratic colleagues are so concerned now, Mr. Patel, all of a sudden, where were they last year?
05:21Where were they the year before?
05:23Where were they the year before that?
05:24Where was the last president in any of this?
05:27Well, all I know, the only thing I see is a single letter from the ranking member that was sent in 2019
05:33that he didn't like the plea deal, and some people signed on to that.
05:37Most of the truth, the real truth, let's be honest, let's be intellectually honest,
05:43the real truth is we didn't hear from them at all.
05:47There are 26 confidential human sources at the Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
05:53So we'll see it from the right now, everyone.
05:55So you can do that from the right now.
05:57We'll see you in the next segment.
05:58One question.
05:58How about one?
05:58How about one of us?
05:59Well, say you're the anderen?
