Two House Republicans who backed the subpoena of former Attorney General Pam Bondi expressed resistance to joining Democrats in seeking to hold her in contempt after the Justice Department said she would not appear for a scheduled deposition.

In April 2026 (this is April 14th 2026 today), after growing dissatisfaction over her handling of the
Epstein files and other issues,
Trump fired Bondi, shortly after firing
DHS secretaryKristi Noem.

Bondi, who was fired by Trump recently,
like very recently, was issued a bipartisan subpoena for her testimony to the
House Oversight Committee while she was serving as attorney general. She was scheduled to appear today.
So now “former” (
as of 12 days ago) attorney general Pam Bondi could be charged with contempt of Congress after
failing to appear for a scheduled deposition for her testimony in a long-running investigation into the federal government’s handling of
investigations into Jeffrey Epstein.
But
last week, the Department of Justice claimed the subpoena “
no longer applies.” If so, that’s awfully convenient.
Rep. Robert Garcia, the committee’s top Democrat, said in a statement Tuesday that the (as of 12 days ago) former attorney general “
is evading a lawful congressional subpoena” by refusing to testify about
the Epstein files “and the White House cover-up.”
“
This subpoena applies to her regardless of her title,” he said. “
She must appear before the committee, and if she continues to ignore the law, Oversight Democrats will move forward with contempt proceedings immediately. We will fight until there is true accountability and justice.”
Former attorney general is ‘evading a lawful congressional subpoena,’ according to top Democrat on House Oversight Committee

Good luck with that.
