Robert Garcia Presses for Pam Bondi Testimony After Missed Deposition

Outlets agree that Pam Bondi did not appear for a subpoenaed House deposition about the Epstein files and that Robert Garcia said Democrats could pursue contempt proceedings. Left-leaning outlets frame Bondi’s absence as defiance and emphasize Democrats’ demand for testimony and possible contempt. Center outlets pair Garcia’s contempt push with the Justice Department’s position that the subpoena no longer applies and Republicans’ efforts to reschedule. Right-leaning outlets foreground the Justice Department’s claim that it released all responsive Epstein records while reporting Garcia’s contempt threat.
