House Oversight Chair James Comer on Tuesday issued a subpoena to Attorney General Pam Bondi to appear for a deposition on April 14 as part of the panel’s Jeffrey Epstein probe.
Comer wrote in the subpoena cover letter that his panel is investigating the “possible mismanagement of the federal government’s investigation” into Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
“The Committee has questions regarding the Department of Justice’s handling of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and his associates and its compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act,” Comer wrote, referring to the law passed by Congress last year mandating the Justice Department’s release of the files.
Unless they’re actually able and willing to hold her in contempt when she inevitably throws a tantrum and refuses to directly answer “Yes” or “No” to simple questions under oath, what’s the point?
They need to be absolutely willing to sic the Marshall on her if necessary and frog-march her to the Capitol Jail or whatever it is. Rules need TEETH. I am so sick of hearing how the US has ‘guardrails’. Bullshit.
Start the hearing with informing her that refusal to answer any question will immediately result in the sargent at arms arresting her for charges of contempt of congress.
