House Democrats demand a public hearing on the Jeffrey Epstein case, seeking testimony from AG Bondi and FBI officials amid Republican divisions over released memo.

Lawmakers from the left are putting pressure on what has become a sensitive spot for Trump with his growingly frustrated base.

Democrats urged the Republican majority to call Justice Department officials, including the attorney general and F.B.I. leaders, to Capitol Hill to discuss how they handled the Jeffrey Epstein case.

Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., introduced an amendment to a cryptocurrency bill set for a House vote this week that would compel Attorney General Pam Bondi to "retain, preserve and compile" Epstein-related records and release them within 30 days.

Internal polling suggests that there's a window for Democrats to use the controversy over the so-called "Epstein list" — and more than a dozen strategists, elected officials and aides are urging them to take it.

Plus, Adelita Grijalva wins the Democratic primary in the race for a House seat in Arizona. The seat was left vacant by her father Raúl Grijalva, who died in March.

The Trump administration is still reeling from the backlash to its highly anticipated review of the federal files on Jeffrey Epstein after the government concluded that the disgraced financier did commit suicide while in federal custody and signaled no plans to release any of the records on the sex trafficking case in the future.

Democrats want to put Attorney General Pam Bondi and other top Trump officials in the hot seat for the administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Bondi faced calls to resign or be fired from some MAGA loyalists after she desperately backtracked on the administration releasing more information on the late convicted sex offender.

In 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty in Florida on two state felony charges, paid restitution to three dozen victims, and registered as a sex offender. A decade later, Epstein pleaded not guilty in New York to multiple charges, including sex trafficking.

The House of Representatives could vote on forcing the Trump administration to release the Jeffrey Epstein files later this week.
