Congressional committee releases videos and subpoenas officials in Epstein case

The House Oversight Committee has taken several public steps in its investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein case. It released video depositions from Epstein's lawyers and from former President Bill Clinton. The committee also subpoenaed former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and demanded a deposition from James 'Jes' Staley, a former JPMorgan executive, seeking information about Epstein's files.

In response, some Democratic lawmakers have expressed frustration with the pace of the investigation, specifically citing delays in securing Bondi's deposition. Separately, the Justice Department has agreed to have top officials brief the House Oversight Committee on its handling of the Epstein matter.

The committee's actions represent the most visible recent developments in the long-running congressional inquiries into the Epstein case, focusing on the release of documents and securing testimony from key figures.
