In a bold move, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) announced on Tuesday, April 15, 2026, that Democrats will move to hold former Attorney General Pam Bondi in contempt for failing to appear for a deposition as part of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee’s Jeffrey Epstein probe. This decision comes after Bondi refused to show up for the deposition, citing her recent dismissal from her role as Attorney General.
According to The Hill, Crockett took to X to express her frustration, stating, “Pam Bondi refused to show up for today’s Oversight deposition — defying our lawful subpoena. We couldn’t care less that she was fired from her job as Attorney General. She is responsible for leading the White House cover-up of the Epstein files.”
