"Ms. Bondi no longer holds that office of U.S. Attorney General, according to current Assistant AG Patrick D. Davis. Because Ms. Bondi no longer can testify in her official capacity as Attorney General, the Department's position is that the subpoena no longer obligates her to appear on April 14."
"Pam Bondi is backing out of her scheduled deposition on the Epstein files. DOJ claims she can just ignore a House committee's subpoena because she's not AG anymore."
Pam Bondi was scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee regarding the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Following her dismissal as Attorney General by President Trump, the Department of Justice claimed she is no longer obligated to appear due to her lack of official capacity.

Bondi's attempt to evade the subpoena has drawn attention and criticism.
