"The DOJ sent "thousands of pages" of records to the Oversight Committee in August as a result of a subpoena, with more files on the way. But the panel's top Democrat, Rep. Robert Garcia (Calif.), said the majority of the documents shared are already public. Oversight has lined up depositions with Bill and Hillary Clinton, former FBI Director James Comey, and, newly added, former U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, as part of its probe."
"What's next: Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) also on Tuesday formally filed his long-awaited discharge petition, which, if signed by 218 House members, would force a vote on releasing the files. But it's unclear if he can still rally enough of his GOP colleagues now that Oversight has publicized the documents. The other side: Democrats argued that the release is a red herring aimed at taking the wind out of Massie's efforts without actually publishing anything substantive."
DOJ sent thousands of pages of records to the Oversight Committee in August under a subpoena, with more files expected. The panel's top Democrat, Rep. Robert Garcia, said most of the documents are already public. The committee scheduled depositions with Bill and Hillary Clinton, former FBI Director James Comey, and former U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta. Chairman James Comer subpoenaed Jeffrey Epstein's estate for records, including a purported "birthday book" tied to Ghislaine Maxwell, with a Sept. 8 deadline. Rep. Thomas Massie filed a discharge petition to force a vote to release files if 218 members sign. Democrats called the release a red herring and said the committee lacks a full investigation.
