DOJ Blocks Bondi Testimony After Epstein Subpoena Sparks Bipartisan Clash
The Justice Department says former Attorney General Pam Bondi will not testify in a congressional probe into Jeffrey Epstein, setting up a direct clash with lawmakers who still demand answers.
According to reporting from Forbes and The Washington Post, Bondi was subpoenaed to appear April 14 over the DOJ’s handling of Epstein files, including delays and redactions. But after President Donald Trump removed her from office, DOJ officials now argue the subpoena no longer applies because she was called in her official role.

That position is already facing resistance.
Members of the House Oversight Committee from both parties have said Bondi must still testify, regardless of her firing, warning the investigation will continue.
The dispute adds to broader uncertainty around Bondi’s abrupt removal and the DOJ’s shifting stance on the Epstein investigation.
Officials have not clarified whether Congress will reissue the subpoena or pursue legal action to compel testimony.
