""Stop now and give us meaningful access to the fully unredacted Epstein files," House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), House Oversight Committee ranking member Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) wrote in a letter to Bondi. A DOJ spokesperson responded with a statement that was first issued on Thursday saying the department "logs all searches made on its systems to protect against the release of victim information.""
"Catch up quick: Bondi was photographed during her testimony to the Judiciary Committee on Wednesday with a page in her notes labeled as Jayapal's "search history." The list appeared to reference specific Epstein documents Jayapal had reviewed while at the DOJ's headquarters in Washington, D.C., this week. Democrats have accused Bondi of having a "burn book" with opposition research targeting specific members of the committee on hand for the hearing to help rebut hostile questioning."
House Democrats demanded immediate, unmonitored access to fully unredacted Epstein documents and an end to DOJ tracking of congressional searches. They requested a meeting with DOJ official Bondi by Feb. 20 to develop a new protocol for reviewing the files. They demanded that lawmakers be allowed to access the files at the U.S. Capitol complex, that select Judiciary Committee staffers be permitted to view them, and that none of those reviews be monitored by DOJ. They also demanded release of roughly three million withheld documents and a full accounting of tracked congressional searches.
