The Jeffrey Epstein scandal will return, impacting the Trump administration negatively. Although House Republicans are trying to evade issues surrounding the Epstein files, Speaker Mike Johnson's early adjournment won't resolve the situation. The House Oversight Committee, led by James Comer, issued subpoenas for documents and in-person testimonies from several high-profile individuals. Despite the bold move, many subpoena recipients may not possess useful information about Epstein and are likely to resist compliance. Commencing litigation could be difficult for Comer, who currently lacks strong rationales for the subpoenas' necessity.
House Republicans have run for the hills, but they can't escape the fire they started. Speaker Mike Johnson adjourned the House early for summer recess to avoid a vote on a measure seeking public release of the Epstein files.
Comer announced his roll call of boldface subpoena recipients: Bill and Hillary Clinton, Robert Mueller, James Comey, and Eric Holder. Each represents a figure in countless right-wing conspiracy theories.
