A Democratic congressman is calling on Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate one of the most explosive allegations made against Donald Trump in the fresh dump of Epstein files.
“Since you creepily spied on the unredacted Epstein files I read, you know I read this one,” Rep. Ted Lieu wrote in a post calling Bondi out on X.
“Witness calls FBI’s NTOC and reports girl, later found dead, told him Trump and Epstein raped her,” he went on. “DOJ NEVER INTERVIEWS WITNESS. When will DOJ interview this witness?”

Trump has repeatedly denied any knowledge of or involvement in crimes committed by the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, with whom he’s understood to have been close friends prior to a falling-out around 2004. The Daily Beast has contacted the White House about Lieu’s post.
The congressman’s post comes after Bondi made a combative appearance before the House Judiciary Committee earlier this week, which swiftly descended into a shouting match as Democrats accused her of lying under oath about her department’s bungled handling of the Epstein case.
