“Donald Trump and the Department of Justice are now violating federal law as they continue covering up the facts and the evidence about Jeffrey Epstein’s decades-long, billion-dollar, international sex trafficking ring. For months, Pam Bondi has denied survivors the transparency and accountability they have demanded and deserve and has defied the Oversight Committee’s subpoena. The Department of Justice is now making clear it intends to defy Congress itself, even as it gives star treatment to Epstein’s convicted co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell. Courts around the country have repeatedly intervened when this Administration has broken the law.”

“We are now examining all legal options in the face of this violation of federal law. The survivors of this nightmare deserve justice, the co-conspirators must be held accountable, and the American people deserve complete transparency from DOJ,” say House Judiciary and Oversight Ranking Dems Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia in response to Todd Blanche’s bitch-ass slip on Fox News this morning that the Trump Regime needs more time to comply with their actual statutorily mandated duty to release ALL of the Epstein files on this day and date with no exceptions or excuses.

What a judge is actually going to do is anyone’s guess but maybe it’s not out of the question that a court could deputize Raskin, Garcia, and their staffs, giving them a blank check to simply walk in to the Justice Department and take whatever they want to sort out and see if it’s Epstein-related.

Might be too much to hope for on that. Then again it is the law and not just some subpoena.
