House Judiciary GOP shoots down Democrat efforts to subpoena more Epstein files
House Judiciary Committee Republicans blocked subpoenas targeting four banks that flagged $1.5 billion in suspicious transactions linked to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking network, citing partisan divisions.
- On September 18, 2025, House Judiciary Committee Republicans blocked a Democratic effort to subpoena the CEOs of four major banks: Jamie Dimon, Brian Moynihan, Christian Sewing, and Robin Vince.
- After a Judiciary Committee hearing where FBI Director Kash Patel testified, Democrats sought subpoenas for JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank, and Bank of New York Mellon over $1.5 billion in suspicious Epstein-linked transactions.
- Reporting shows JPMorgan Chase processed over $1B for Epstein despite internal concerns, with court filings indicating nearly $1.75 million in cash withdrawals by 2008.
- By forcing a tabling vote, Republicans ensured Committee Chair Jim Jordan held the vote open until every Republican returned, with only Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., siding with House Democrats.
- Beyond bank records, lawmakers requested documents about Ghislaine Maxwell's transfer and sought files from the Bureau of Prisons, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, but Republicans blocked those efforts.
