For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Top Senate Democrat says he expects justice department to respond to Epstein demand by 15 August

“We’re invoking federal law and using our authority as a check on the executive to compel transparency,” Schumer said.

“Today’s letter matters. It’s not a stunt, it’s not symbolic, it’s a formal exercise of congressional power under federal law, and we expect an answer from DOJ by August the 15th. That’s what accountability looks like. This is what oversight looks like, and this is what keeping your promises to the American people look like.”

He noted that both Bondi and Donald Trump had previously said they want the case file’s released:

If this were true it would have been released under Biden.

I still think they should be released, and that the Dems are correct to push for it now. But if we find out Biden or Garland was covering up for the Clintons they all should be fully persecuted too.

They hadn't finished the investigation under Biden, I don't think they had all of the materials yet, and he was terrified of looking like he interfered with the DOJ.

Obviously yes to the second paragraph. I've never heard a lefty or even a Democrat say otherwise.
