The top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee questioned whether a meeting between Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and Ghislaine Maxwell would produce anything, saying his focus remains on wanting more information from the Department of Justice and FBI.
“We’ve already had the attorney general announce that she is possession of client list information and then can’t produce it. So I don’t, I’m not sure what this visit is going to glean,” Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois said.
Durbin, who has requested documents from the FBI and DOJ, suggested that a subpoena could potentially be necessary to get top officials to testify before the Judiciary Committee.
The Democrat claimed that the committee has received information that FBI agents were assigned to look through the Epstein files and flag mentions of President Donald Trump’s name.
“So many agents who should have been investigating issues of national security, safety, narcotics and the like, were assigned the task of going through this file here by Jeffrey Epstein creation that, to me, seems like a waste of talent and law enforcement. I believe it did happen,” he said
