Bondi testifies in closed-door House Oversight interview on Epstein file witholding, blaming Blanche for redaction decisions
Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared for a closed-door transcribed interview before the House Oversight Committee on DOJ's partial compliance with the Epstein Disclosure Act and the redaction failures that exposed approximately 100 survivors. In testimony described by members in post-interview press statements, Bondi attributed both the redaction decisions and the withholding of 2.5 million pages to Deputy AG Todd Blanche's operational control of the review process. Members of both parties said they found her account incomplete and announced plans to subpoena Blanche.
