In a surprise move on Tuesday evening, the House Oversight Committee released over 33,000 pages of records pertaining to Jeffrey Epstein, obtained via subpoena directed to the Department of Justice.
WASHINGTON—Today, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released 33,295 pages of Epstein-related records that were provided by the U.S. Department of Justice. On August 5, Chairman Comer issued a subpoena for records related to Mr. Jeffrey Epstein, and the Department of Justice has indicated it will continue producing those records while ensuring the redaction of victim identities and any child sexual abuse material.

Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY), flanked by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), spoke with reporters at the Capitol on Tuesday, in a video clip shared on X by the Committee:
There must be maximum transparency about the horrific crimes committed by Epstein and Maxwell.

“Just give a quick update: I think everyone knows who all we’ve subpoenaed thus far in the initial batch. We subpoenaed six former Attorneys General as well as…Bill Clinton andHillary Clinton. We’ve expanded that to Alex Acosta — Acosta is coming in, I believe, September the 19th — 16th or 19th. We’ve got that date down. I know that we’ll have a lot of questions for him with respect to an earlier Epstein prosecution that he was involved in when he was U.S. Attorney.
“We have the documents — the initial batch that had been sent by the White House. As you know, we also subpoenaed Pam Bondi for those documents. The White House is working with us — I want to publicly thank the White House for turning over so many documents thus far. We’re in the process of uploading those documents for full transparency, so everyone in America can see those documents. As quick as we can get them uploaded — as the Speaker said, there are 34,000 pages — we’re doing everything we can to get those uploaded. We want those to be public as soon as possible.
“And then we’re gonna continue to bring in more people. We learned of some additional names today. We’re gonna do everything we can to give the American public the transparency they seek, as well as provide accountability in memory of the victims who have already passed away, as well as those that were in the room, and many others who haven’t come forward.
“So, we’re sincere about this — this was a 2 1/2 hour discussion. It was as bipartisan as anything I’ve seen in the nine years I’ve been here. I appreciate the Speaker for giving us the authority to seek out everything that I think you all want, and the people that I talk to, as I travel America, want. We’re going to do everything we can to get the answers and to do it as soon as possible.”

Obviously, with that large a tranche of documents, it will take some time to review and take stock of the information contained in them, though indications are that they include the DOJ’s interview with Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as “videos that appear to show the inside of Epstein’s Palm Beach home.” However, it is likely that many (most) of the documents have already been made public in some form or fashion.
Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the committee, claimed that some 97% of those documents were already public, however.
Why now? There’s some speculation that it’s an effort to get out in front of the efforts of Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA) to force a vote on the bill they’ve introduced, but Comer appears to be waving that notion off.
Comer said the committee was “way ahead” of Massie and Khanna’s move.
“We’re going to go beyond it. We’re already getting the documents from the administration,” Comer said. “I don’t think [the discharge petition is] necessary at all.”
Will this release move the needle at all in terms of people’s perceptions of the case? It’s a little too early to say for certain, but one thing is clear, and that is that the House is moving forward with efforts to obtain and release pertinent information surrounding it.
