GOP lawmakers at odds as Epstein fallout continues

(CNN) Division between Republican lawmakers over the Jeffrey Epstein files continued to intensify even as President Donald Trump and his administration seeks to redirect scrutiny toward the president’s political foes and the 2016 election.

Signs of mounting pressure to respond to calls for transparency appeared last week when a GOP-majority House Oversight subcommittee voted to subpoena the Department of Justice for files related to Epstein. House Oversight Chair James Comer has also subpoenaed Epstein’s accomplice and former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, for a deposition.

Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence in Tallahassee, Florida, for sex trafficking of minors also met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on Thursday and Friday for questioning.

The GOP is terrified of Trump's exposure, but drooling over Clinton's. Hypocrites. 'But what about the children?' loses relevance when their standard bearer has a history of raping same.
