House committee issues subpoenas for Epstein files, depositions with Clintons and other officials
- On Tuesday, the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee demanded the Justice Department hand over files related to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, while also summoning ten former officials for depositions concerning the case.

- Chairman James Comer requested all relevant documents by August 19 and asserted defiance against Johnson’s attempts to slow the committee’s progress on the Epstein files.
- This subpoena effort signals escalated oversight into Epstein-related investigations and sustains political pressure amid unresolved questions about connections to President Trump and other officials.
