Republican lawmakers are divided over how to handle the release of Jeffrey Epstein-related files, showing growing tension within the party. The split comes as the GOP-led House Oversight subcommittee moves forward with efforts to obtain documents from the Department of Justice.
According to CNN, House Oversight Chair James Comer has taken steps by subpoenaing both the DOJ and Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s former girlfriend, who is now serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking of minors. Maxwell recently met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche for questioning over two days.
