WASHINGTON — A powerful Republican-led House committee Tuesday subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi to answer questions about “the possible mismanagement” of the Justice Department’s probe into Jeffrey Epstein.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) told Bondi in a letter that the panel also wants to hear about “the circumstances and subsequent investigations of Mr. Epstein’s death,” as well as investigative materials gathered on his convicted accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Oversight panel voted in favor of Bondi’s deposition earlier this month and has asked the AG to appear April 14.

Epstein — a convicted pedophile and millionaire New York City financier who rubbed shoulders with some of the most powerful people in the world — died behind bars in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges, sparking a slew of conspiracy theories that forced the government to release its files on him.

“As Attorney General, you are directly responsible for overseeing the Department’s collection, review, and determinations regarding the release of files pursuant to the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the Committee therefore believes that you possess valuable insight into these efforts,” Comer wrote in the missive to Bondi.

A DOJ rep responded in a statement, “This subpoena is completely unnecessary.

“Lawmakers have been invited to view the unredacted files for themselves at the Department of Justice, and the Attorney General has always made herself available to speak directly with members of Congress.

“She continues to have calls and meetings with members of Congress on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which is why the Department offered to brief the committee tomorrow,” the representative added of their boss. “As always, we look forward to continuing to provide policymakers with the facts.”

Five Republicans — Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Michael Cloud of Texas, Nancy Mace of South Carolina, and Scott Perry of Pennsylvania — joined 19 Democrats on the Oversight Committee to compel Bondi’s appearance through a motion put forward by Mace on March 4.

The Justice Department has released more than 3 million pages of investigative materials on Epstein and Maxwell to the public after the passage of a bill in Congress in November 2025 that mandated their release.

None of the materials have altered the DOJ’s position, memorialized in a July 6, 2025, memo, that Epstein was not part of a sinister pedophile ring that trafficked girls as young as 14 — despite Bondi saying in an interview with Fox News Channel months before that a list of Epstein’s “clients” was “sitting on my desk right now to review.”

A senior Justice Department official has told The Post that the memo’s determination about the purported client list and Epstein having committed suicide Aug. 10, 2019, in his Manhattan jail cell have also been supported by the disclosures.

White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles acknowledged in an interview with Vanity Fair late last year that Bondi had still “completely whiffed” in her public remarks beforehand.

In addition to Bondi, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has also agreed to voluntarily testify before the panel about his association with Epstein — after a photo and emails emerged in the DOJ’s Epstein files.

The undated picture showed Lutnick visiting with the disgraced financier on his private isle — dubbed “Pedophile Island” by locals because of Epstein’s predilection for young-looking females — in the Caribbean.

Communications between the two revealed that Lutnick and his family stopped by Little St. James for a lunch visit that lasted roughly an hour, the Cabinet official later confirmed in testimony to Congress.

Lutnick previously told “Pod Force One” host and Post columnist Miranda Devine that he “was never in the room with him [Epstein] — socially, for business or even philanthropy.”

Oversight lawmakers are also seeking transcribed interviews with outgoing Goldman Sachs’ general counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, ex-Bill Clinton aide Doug Band, Apollo Global Management cofounder Leon Black, billionaire philanthropist Ted Waitt, and Epstein assistants Lesley Groff and Sarah Kellen.
