The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Tuesday released more than 33,000 pages of Justice Department documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, following a subpoena issued in August. Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) said the disclosure marked “the beginning and not the end” of the investigation.
The material, posted on Google Drive and Dropbox, includes court records, surveillance videos from Epstein’s jail cell and Florida home, and an audio interview of Ghislaine Maxwell with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. Democrats on the panel noted most of the documents were already public, with ranking member Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) saying the release was aimed at prolonging the process.
Meanwhile, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) filed a discharge petition with Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) to force a floor vote on their bipartisan bill requiring further Epstein disclosures. Speaker Mike Johnson dismissed the effort as “moot,” citing ongoing Oversight releases.
Comer also subpoenaed the Epstein estate for additional materials, including the “birthday book” reported by the Wall Street Journal to contain a note from Donald Trump. Comer pledged to make those documents public once received.
