The Senate Judiciary Committee has sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi ordering her to answer questions related to the federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, including a claim that FBI personnel were instructed to “flag” any records found that mentioned Trump.
“My office was told that these personnel were instructed to ‘flag’ any records in which President Trump was mentioned,” wrote Ranking Member Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) in the letter dated Friday. “What happened to the records mentioning President Trump once they were flagged?”
Durbin also asks Bondi to explain her claim back in February that she had Epstein’s client list “sitting on my desk right now to review.” The FBI and DOJ, in a memo released last week, said such a list doesn’t exist.
“If it was not a client list, what was ‘sitting on your desk’ at that moment?” the letter asks.
Surveillance footage taken outside of Epstein’s jail cell and released by the FBI and DOJ was also questioned, due to it having been labeled as “full raw” video. A review by Wired magazine concluded that the footage was likely modified, which Durbin said has “needlessly increased” public skepticism of the government’s transparency.
The committee requests answers to these, and other questions seen here, by Aug. 1.
