These records include references to prominent figures such as Elon Musk, Steve Bannon, and Peter Thiel, as well as mentions of Bill Gates and Prince Andrew. The released documents consist of Epstein’s daily schedules, flight manifests, and ledgers documenting transactions. The committee has stated they are committed to uncovering all individuals associated with Epstein’s crimes.

As part of an ongoing investigation, lawyers for Jeffrey Epstein’s estate have provided the House Oversight Committee with a second batch of documents, including previously redacted pages from Epstein’s “birthday book.” This includes a letter allegedly written by Donald Trump, a claim he denies, and another address book. The estate’s lawyers are also making the unredacted birthday book available for the committee to review. The documents were subpoenaed as part of an investigation into Epstein’s sex-trafficking operations, following an initial handover of documents and a prior subpoena to the Department of Justice for records related to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

The House Oversight Committee released a photograph of a pornographic birthday card allegedly sent by Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, confirming the card’s existence after weeks of denial. The card, which features a drawing of a nude woman and Trump’s signature, prompted Democrats to accuse the president of a cover-up regarding his relationship with Epstein and demand the release of full files. Despite the release, the White House maintained the note was a hoax and vowed to continue pursuing litigation against the claims.

The House Oversight Committee released a document featuring a joke about Jeffrey Epstein allegedly “selling” a woman to Donald Trump for $22,500. The image, originating from Epstein’s 2003 birthday book, includes a novelty check purportedly signed by “DJTRUMP” and a handwritten note. The note, apparently from Joel Pashcow, refers to Epstein’s skills with “money + women.” The White House denies the authenticity of Trump’s alleged signature and any involvement in the matter.

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee shared a purported birthday message from Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, retrieved from Epstein’s estate as part of a subpoena. The message, which included a hand-drawn image and a typed conversation, was immediately disputed by Trump, who denied authorship and that the signature was his. The authenticity of the note is further complicated by previous examples of Trump’s signatures, as well as a denial from White House officials. The Committee also received Epstein’s will, nonprosecution agreement and other records.

During a closed-door House Oversight Committee briefing with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse, Representative Nancy Mace, a self-identified sexual assault survivor, experienced a “full-blown panic attack” and had to leave the meeting. The briefing was part of the committee’s investigation into the handling of Epstein’s case, aiming to provide a direct forum for survivors to share their experiences. Mace later shared that she struggled with hearing the victims’ stories and suffered physical symptoms. The Oversight Committee plans further action to review and release Epstein-related records.

Congresswoman Nancy Mace experienced a panic attack and left a meeting with Jeffrey Epstein’s victims early, visibly emotional after hearing their stories. Mace later shared on social media that she is a recent survivor and had difficulty listening to the accounts. The meeting, part of the House Oversight Committee’s investigation, involved six Epstein victims who met with members including Chairman James Comer and Speaker Mike Johnson. Speaker Johnson stated the objective is to investigate the Epstein case and ensure such events never happen again. The committee has begun releasing documents related to the case, while Democrats call for full compliance with subpoenas for further transparency.

The House Oversight Committee released over 30,000 documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, though a majority of the files were already publicly available. The release followed a subpoena from Chairman James Comer, who sought the “full, complete, unredacted Epstein Files,” yet notably did not subpoena former President Donald Trump. Democrats criticized the release, claiming it was a cover-up, while the released files included a video clip of a young woman recounting her experience and court documents from Ghislaine Maxwell’s case. The move comes as Congress returns from recess, with Epstein’s crimes and associated networks expected to be a prominent topic of discussion.

Rather than demanding full transparency, Speaker Johnson scheduled a vote that would allow Republicans to direct the Oversight Committee to continue its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s case. This move comes as the House Oversight Committee plans to meet with Epstein’s victims to investigate mismanagement of the federal government’s investigation, the circumstances of Epstein’s death, and sex-trafficking rings. Representatives Massie and Khanna, who are advocating for the release of the Epstein files, view Johnson’s vote as political cover, allowing Republicans to appear to act while avoiding actual disclosure, with Massie planning to file a discharge petition to force a vote on releasing the files.

The House Oversight Committee has withdrawn its request for testimony from Robert Mueller regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case, citing Mueller’s health issues that prevent him from testifying. The committee previously issued a subpoena to Mueller last month, aiming to gather information relevant to their investigation due to his tenure as FBI director during the time Epstein was under investigation. This decision arises amid recent controversy surrounding the Epstein files and the Justice Department’s internal review. Mueller, who served as FBI director from 2001-2013, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2021.
