Full Story
Republican politicians are calling on newly confirmed U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to follow through on her promise to release documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. The pressure comes after Bondi said during the week of Feb. 17 that she had a pile of documents on her desk, awaiting her review.
Republican politicians demand action
Less than a week ago, Bondi spoke at a conservative political conference, she said that while she couldn’t discuss the specifics, she was briefed on the upcoming release of documents that may include Epstein’s client list.

Bondi told commentator Benny Johnson, “President Trump has given a very strong directive, and that’s going to be followed.”
GOP leaders are growing restless without any documents or an updated timeline. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., posted on X, asking Bondi, “What’s the status?”
On Feb 11 & Feb 19, house oversight sent a letter to the DOJ asking for status on releasing the Epstein files as well as JFK etc.

The DOJ has not responded.
Reaching out on X because we can’t seem to get a response from the AG.@AGPamBondi what is the status of the…
She claimed neither Bondi nor the Department of Justice had responded about the pending release. Two other Republican lawmakers, Reps. Mike Collins, R-Ga., and Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., also took to social media, calling for the release of the files.
Questions surrounding Epstein remain
In January 2024, a federal judge unsealed hundreds of court documents related to Epstein, who faced charges connected to an international sex trafficking ring.
While those documents offered more insight into the case, including details about victims and high-profile associates, they did not include the names of individuals on Epstein’s client list. Many believe this could potentially implicate prominent world leaders and figures.

Calls for transparency
Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, echoed calls for more transparency, referencing the release of documents related to the JFK assassination and the Las Vegas shooter. On social media, Lee emphasized this is information that the American people deserve to know, and called on Bondi to release the Epstein documents.
The pressure follows an executive order signed by the president allowing the release of files related to the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.
