Former Attorney General Pam Bondi is finally scheduled to testify before Congress regarding the Epstein files on May 29 after facing significant pushback for failing to appear for a previously scheduled deposition. It led to a confrontation between House Oversight and Government Reform Committee members and the Department of Justice. However, per the Hill, committee members have now confirmed this needed shift in the ongoing investigation.
The initial subpoena was issued in March following a surprise motion by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), who successfully garnered support from four of her GOP colleagues and all of the Democrats on the panel. The situation intensified when Democrats on the committee introduced a formal resolution to hold Bondi in contempt after she failed to show up for her deposition.
