James Comer Says Some Republicans Embarrassed Him on Epstein

"I think last night was a low point in the Epstein investigation, the way the Democrats behaved. That was clearly a premeditated stunt to go out with their fake outrage. They said Pam Bondi wasn't answering their questions. They didn't ask any question. And look, I was embarrassed by the Democrats."

"There have been things that sadly some of my members have done that have been embarrassing through this process. I'm trying to include all the members in this investigation. But I'll tell you what, you know, you just have to face the fact that we have a lot of dead weight on this committee."

"Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche have insisted all files related to Epstein's case that can be released have been, following a congressional vote forcing their release. There have been bipartisan calls, however, for more files to be released and criticism of the Department of Justice for not finding cases to prosecute."

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer condemned Democratic lawmakers for leaving a closed-door briefing with Attorney General Pam Bondi regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case. Democrats departed after Bondi refused to commit to complying with a subpoena requiring her testimony in April. Comer characterized the walkout as a premeditated stunt and low point in the investigation. However, he acknowledged that some Republican committee members have also engaged in embarrassing conduct during the Epstein investigation. Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche maintain that all releasable Epstein files have been disclosed following a congressional vote. Bipartisan calls continue for additional file releases and criticism persists regarding the Department of Justice's prosecution efforts.
