California Democrat rep Ro Khanna will file an amendment to an Act that would require Attorney General Pam Bondi to release Epstein's client list as the Donald Trump administration is already in a tough spot over the issue. Khanna said he will file an amendment to the GENIUS Act , a cryptocurrency bill slated to be marked up by the House Rules Committee on Tuesday. Axios reported that the amendment would require Bondi to "retain, preserve and compile any records or evidence related to any investigation, prosecution or incarceration" of Epstein.
Bondi would then have to "release and publish" the records "on a publicly available website" within 30 days of the GENIUS Act being signed into law.
But it's highly unlikely that Ro Khanna's amendment would make it to the House floor.
“Why are the Epstein files still hidden? Who are the rich & powerful being protected?” Khanna wrote on social media Sunday while announcing his plans. A vote would “put every Congress member on record” about making the files public, he continued.
Rep. Mark Veasey (D-Texas) also announced on social media that he’ll be introducing a resolution Monday demanding the release of the files. “Either [President Donald Trump] and his acolytes fueled the rumors of the significance of these Epstein files to help his campaign, or something is there!” he wrote, suggesting the possibility of a cover-up.
The handling of the Epstein files created a major rift in the Donald Trump administration and FBI deputy director Dan Bongino was on the verge of resigning over his disagreement with Pam Bondi. Bondi overpromised for months about Epstein releases and then the administration announced that Epstein did not have any client list and hence, there would be no more investigation or prosecution in the case.
“Dan Bongino is a very good guy. I’ve known him a long time. I’ve done his show many, many times. And he sounded terrific, actually, no, I think he’s in good shape," President Donald Trump said on Bongino.
