00:02The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform said it subpoenaed Attorney General
00:06Pam Bondi to sit for an April 14th deposition on the Department of Justice's handling of
00:11matters related to Jeffrey Epstein. According to CNBC, Chairman James Comer identified the
00:17date in a letter sent after the panel voted to issue the subpoena. Lawmakers want to question
00:22Bondi about DOJ compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act and its handling of
00:27the Epstein investigation and his associates. A DOJ spokesperson said the subpoena is unnecessary
00:33because lawmakers can review unredacted files at the department and Bondi has been available
00:38to speak with Congress. Bondi appeared before the House Judiciary Committee in a contentious
00:43hearing where she defended her department's handling of Epstein-related matters while
00:47praising Trump and clashing with Democratic lawmakers.
