Epstein Forums

Washington, D.C. (February 13, 2026)—Today, Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement, and Rep. Robert Garcia, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, are demanding that the Department of Justice (DOJ) immediately cease its attempt to obstruct and intimidate Members of Congress by covertly monitoring their searches of the slightly-less-redacted Epstein files.

At an oversight hearing this week with the House Judiciary Committee, Attorney General Pam Bondi was photographed with a document entitled ‘Jayapal Pramila Search History’ that contained a list of unredacted Epstein files Rep. Jayapal reviewed at DOJ a day prior. This photograph revealed that DOJ had secretly accessed and analyzed Members’ search histories and used that information to prepare Attorney General Bondi to launch partisan attacks instead of answering oversight questions.

“This surveillance of Members as we perform our constitutional oversight duties, done without our knowledge or consent, is a blatant violation of the separation of powers and further evidence that this DOJ will stop at nothing to protect Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s co-conspirators, accomplices, and enablers while denying justice to survivors and the American people,” wrote the Ranking Members.
