Republicans kill subpoena demands of Epstein’s ‘suspicious’ financial transactions



Republicans have killed a House effort to approve subpoenas for the CEOs of four major banks — JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank, and Bank of New York Mellon — to obtain documents related to "suspicious" financial transactions flagged as part of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) motioned the House Judiciary Committee to subpoena the banks for the documents after a hearing with FBI Director Kash Patel. Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) asked for a vote to "table" the motion, meaning they wouldn't even debate it before a vote. While Democrats were winning the vote with the support of Rep. Tom Massie (R-KY), the committee chairman, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) held open the vote until every Republican could rush back to vote in support of tabling the motion.

Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon (D-PA) then requested that documents be subpoenaed from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent around "suspicious" transactions of Epstein and co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell.

Republicans voted to table that motion.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) requested to subpoena the Bureau of Prisons to turn over documents related to the transfer of Maxwell from the Florida minimum security prison to the prison camp in Texas that offers fewer restrictions.

Republicans killed that motion as well.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) then motioned that FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino be subpoenaed to produce the files related to Epstein, including all of the witness interviews and search warrant materials.

Republicans tabled the motion.

‘Do you believe in free speech or not?’: CNN anchor clashes with GOP panelists over Kimmel



CNN anchor Abby Phillip clashed with her GOP colleagues on Wednesday over the decision to suspend "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on network television.

Phillip discussed the move with former Republican Governor of Wisconsin Scott Walker and GOP strategist Scott Jennings. It occurred just hours after Nexstar Media Group, which owns several local ABC affiliates, announced that it is suspending Kimmel's show "indefinitely" because of comments the comedian made about conservative activist Charlie Kirk's slaying.

Phillip questioned the timeline of Kimmel's suspension and the involvement of FCC chairman Brendan Carr in the deal. On Tuesday, Carr gave a threatening interview with MAGA podcaster Benny Johnson, where he claimed that the FCC would be taking active measures to ensure broadcast companies abide by the public interest standard.

Within 24 hours, Kimmel was pulled off the air, Phillip noted.

"Nexstar has a very clear financial interest in not getting on the wrong side of that guy," Phillip said to Walker, talking about Carr. "You don't see the problem with that?"

Both Walker and Jennings argued that Nexstar was making a "business decision" by taking Kimmel off the air.

"Do you believe in free speech or not?" Phillip asked pointedly.

"I do, but you can't expect us to sit with our hands tied behind our backs," Walker said.
