Check out @MollyJongFast today on Morning Joe: "Robert Garcia has been everywhere, talking to everyone, in a way that I think shows a path forward for Democrats, at least in the minority. Amazing." She gets it.

.@RobertGarcia: "I think JD Vance — and we already know that he's a liar who does whatever Donald Trump wants — has refused to ever stand up to Trump throughout this entire administration. And what we're learning here is that he's a much more central player in the Epstein cover-up than we had ever thought before. We're going to have to do everything we can to compel him to testify, to push the media, and to shape public opinion.”

Good on @RepRobertGarcia for working to bring accountability, oversight, and transparency to the Epstein Files as the Trump Admin continues to ignore Congress and hide them from the public!

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) said Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has been "cooperative" in answering questions from lawmakers during Wednesday's House Oversight Committee investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and asks more people with information to come forward. "It's important to note that Mr. Gates does understand that he was around people, and likely assistants and those employed by Mr. Gates, that were also abused," Garcia said outside the deposition room. "...That was recognized in some of the discussion that we had inside."

Robert Garcia greets Comer’s comments on bringing in acting AG Blanche for Epstein testimony >>> “It needs to be an under oath deposition, videotaped and released to the American public, or better yet, an actual public hearing where the media and the public are invited.”

“So far Mr. Gates has been cooperative in answering our questions,” Robert Garcia says. “Gates has discussed and provided us with information about other folks that were in Mr. Epstein’s orbit”

Garcia to Reporter: Today we had Ms. Groff, who’s actually still testifying before the committee. She’s giving us, in fact, I think a lot of names of staff, employees, and folks who worked in the Epstein orbit. She worked for Epstein for 18 years, so she’s being asked some very tough questions, rightly so, about what she knew and who she scheduled appointments with. We know she scheduled massages, and that’s being asked of her.

Comer is right. It won’t be enough for García until we get answers. Who is the Trump admin protecting???
Q: Garcia said he put in a formal request with you to have Todd Blanche subpoenaed. Are you going to act on that? COMER: It's never enough for Garcia (That's a no)

This Administration dropped Trump's illegal slush fund in large part due to public outcry. That pressure must continue. We must also pass legislation in Congress to ensure that this gross corruption never happens again.

NEW - Progressive and centrist Democrats are remarkably aligned around their plan for using a potential House majority to investigate President Donald Trump: Pursue businesses that have cultivated his administration for backdoor oversight, and don’t hold back.

.@RobertGarcia: "Over 30 times she deflected blame onto Todd Blanche. Why were redactions made? That's Todd Blanche. Why are 3 million documents still missing? Well, Todd Blanche was in charge of the Epstein files. Why was Ghislaine Maxwell moved? 'I have no idea — ask Todd Blanche.' When the full transcript is reviewed by everyone, it is very clear that she is deflecting to Todd Blanche."

The transcript of Pam Bondi’s interview is now out. That day I said: “She continues to push all of the investigation and the blame on Acting AG Todd Blanche." Bondi said I was lying. Well, the transcript is out. And it’s clear that Bondi placed all responsibility on Blanche.
