Republican senators are warning Attorney General Pam Bondi not to slow-walk the public release of records and documents related to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein following votes by the House and Senate demanding the documents.

The calls come amid speculation that the Justice Department may cite ongoing investigations or other reasons to hold back material.

Bondi on Wednesday said that "new information" obtained by investigators had spurred the Justice Department to reverse its earlier decision to close investigations related to Epstein.

Democrats are warning that new investigations into high-profile associates of Epstein, such as former President Clinton and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, could be cited as justification to withhold documents or videos of Epstein's mansion in Manhattan.

Man, there sure is something in those files.

[Lovie777]

1. I have -0- trust nor confidence in the GQP.............

that said, we shall see.

[flashman13]

14. You do have to admit this level of opposition to Trump by Rs is unprecedented (my new watch word).

[mwmisses4289]

17. He cost them much of the last election.

Some of their donors are getting pissed of with it, and if t keeps on the way he is going, he may cost them the next few elections that are coming up.

[flashman13]

22. You can safely change may to will.

[pfitz59]

20. Their pollsters gave them a reality check

Oppose Trump, or lose bigly in the midterms.

[flashman13]

21. Pollsters? You would think any politician with an IQ above room temperature could figure this out on their own.

Then again, we are talking about MAGAts.

[sop]

2. Anyone who believes Trump will allow Bondi to release anything even remotely negative about him is deluded.

[WestMichRad]

3. A feeble attempt at performance art.

[Septua]

4. Yeah, but...

..since when does Bondi have any fear of the Senate or House?

Technically, Congress has constitutional and statutory controls over the AG but they have yet to enforce any of the controls. She's violated her oath, violated the Constitution, violated the law and thumbed her nose at Congressional committee members. I highly doubt she's losing sleep over empty Senator warnings.

[mwmisses4289]

5. Except she doesn't have a rabid voter base nipping at her well shod heels,

and many of these republican senators do. True, their more rabid voters believe only dems are in the files, and the idiotic nonsense that t was actually an undercover superhero agent really working to bring j down; but their voters have been even more pissed off than dems about the files not being released.

[Chasstev365]

6. GOP Senators should be warning Bondi omitting, scrubing, or altering documents in any way is a federal crime!

[._.]

7. There is.

It's the vids. All those lurid videos w/sound.
They would cause numerous political earthquakes.

[2na fisherman]

9. Doctored Videos

There may be missing minutes in all of them like the video of Epstein's cell the night he supposedly hanged himself.

[Ponietz]

8. GTFO now Bondi! Last chance to save your soul

if not, they’ll feed you to the dogs by the new year.

[infullview]

10. Bondi will not release anything incriminating.

If she does, it implicates her as a co conspirator in a cover up of a sex crime. Specifically the one year sentence she gave Epstein when he was indicted in Florida. She can’t throw Donald under the bus without getting run over herself.

[Emile]

11. She will do whatever Trump tells her, not Republican Senators.

[progressoid]

13. Yep.

[liberalgunwilltravel]

12. I'm sure

Brown Nose Bondi will jump right on that, Senators. Integrity and honor are her middle names. Along with Trump’s bitch. Meaning her full name is Pamela Brown Nose Integrity Honor Trump’s Bitch Bondi.

[thesquanderer]

15. Sounds like it's time for a senator to write a Strongly Worded Letter. (n/t)

[louis-t]

16. Let me guess, they will suddenly 'find' new evidence against Clinton.

That is what repugs have promised maga for many years.

[Martin68]

18. They can "warn" all they want. Bondi and Trump will see to it that the public never sees a complete and unreacted

version of the files.

[ChicagoTeamster]

19. They know that many of the angry MAGA are sex abuse victims, hence the Q conspiacies

Once they find out that they were lied to, and that they've been following an abuser who is possibly an accessory after the fact to sex trafficking they're going to explode.

[AZ8theist]

23. OOOOOOOOOOO!! A WARNING!!!

Feckless Guard Our Pedos party issues a WARNING!!!!

Suzie must really, really, REALLY be concerned:

[FakeNoose]

24. Jack Smith is way ahead of this

Why doesn't Blondie outsource the scrutiny of the Epstein documents to Jack Smith?
He'll save her a lot of time, and he's probably not doing anything right now ....

[Hassler]

25. Too late. We're into the next chapter

Of the Trump Epstein Cover-up.

[PXR-5]

26. So they can't release if

there's an ongoing investigation, so that would mean tRump and Republicans would be under investigation.
But they will release Democrats in the files because they are not under investigation...

[underpants]

27. The GOP rode this for years like guns and abortion, now they can't stop it.

Literally NO ONE but Clay Higgins voted against this

[mdbl]

28. Can the Senate impeach Bondi?

asking for a friend.
