"Democrats and Republicans continued to squabble over which side is holding up the release of more information related to disgraced sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein on Tuesday, with Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) blaming Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) for not doing the proper paperwork needed to release Epstein's flight logs. Blackburn, during a Senate hearing with Attorney General Pam Bondi, immediately countered that Durbin was lying."
"The spat happened right after Bondi questioned Durbin about why he was dragging his feet on the Epstein investigation and wondered whether LinkedIn co-founder and Dem mega-donor Reid Hoffman had anything to do with it. I find it very interesting that you refused repeated Republican requests to release the Epstein flight logs in 2023 and 2024. You fought that, Bondi said."
Senators Dick Durbin and Marsha Blackburn engaged in a heated exchange over responsibility for delaying release of Jeffrey Epstein flight logs, with Durbin accusing Blackburn of failing to complete required paperwork and Blackburn denying the claim while asserting she repeatedly requested the logs and raised subpoenas. The exchange included mutual accusations about written requests and staff communication, with Blackburn accusing Durbin of shutting down the committee and Durbin saying Republicans invoked the two-hour rule. Attorney General Pam Bondi questioned Durbin about resisting Republican requests to release the logs and suggested potential donor influence from Reid Hoffman. The dispute ended with both sides trading procedural blame.
