House Democrats Call for Special Counsel in Epstein Investigation
Democrats say the Justice Department blocked Epstein inquiries and argue an independent probe is needed because 1 attorney general was compromised.

- The report details new claims from Beatrice Keul, who alleged Trump raped her at New York's Plaza Hotel, and cites an FBI search connecting Trump to an "exploitation of minors" case.
- White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis dismissed the report as a "desperate attempt" by Democrats, claiming Trump has been "fully exonerated."
- Democrats vowed to continue investigating independently, noting that control of Congress remains at stake in upcoming midterm elections where they could secure subpoena power.
