House committee issues subpoenas for Epstein files
Several of America's top political leaders have been issued subpoenas to testify about the 'horrific crimes' perpetrated by former financier and convicted sexual offender Jeffrey Epstein. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) today issued deposition subpoenas on Tuesday to several former Trump-era Department of Justice officials, as well as historical Democrat power players. Former President Bill Clinton and Former Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Clinton have been called to appear before the Committee in October. Attorneys General Bill Barr and Jeff Sessions, who served under President Trump during his first term, are among the Republicans who have been subpoenaed for testimony. Chairman Comer also issued a subpoena to the current Trump-led U.S. Department of Justice for records related to Epstein. It's a spectacular move by Republicans to pressure Trump's Attorney General Pam Bondi to put out more documents as the administration has been embroiled in controversy over Epstein 'cover-up' claims. Bondi has been blamed by both Democrats and Republicans for stalling the release of the files. House Republicans voted in favor of subpoenaing former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for testimony about Jeffrey Epstein on July 23rd. A motion from Rep. Scott Perry to have Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., solicit the former first couple's testimony passed Wednesday afternoon amid a flurry of new developments around the saga that's consumed Washington. The effort also called for other high-profile Democrats with expected ties to the late sexual offender to be subpoenaed. Former Attorneys General Eric Holder and Merrick Garland will also be compelled to testify. So will former special counsel Robert Mueller, who oversaw Trump's Russia collusion case. The full list of officials called to appear before House Oversight also includes Former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, Former FBI Director Robert Mueller, Former U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, Former U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland , and Former FBI Director James Comey. But Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell's testimony before Congress has been postponed pending her Supreme Court case. Maxwell had been in talks with the Trump administration and Congress about dishing on the disgraced financier and his relationships. The push for additional Epstein-related testimony comes amid heightened media scrutiny over the sexual offender's unreleased Department of Justice and FBI files. A federal judge last Wednesday denied the Trump administration's request to release the highly-secretive grand jury testimony from the Jeffrey Epstein case. Obama-appointed Judge Robin Rosenberg slapped down the request from Attorney General Pam Bondi to unseal proceedings related to Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. The House Oversight Committee also announced last week that it had issued a subpoena to interview Maxwell at her Florida prison facility. Maxwell's attorney had not yet agreed to the committee's terms for an interview but indicated an interview was possible. Chairman Comer announced last week that Maxwell was set to testify before the panel on August 11 at the Tallahassee facility where she is serving her prison sentence.

Trump claims he had nothing to do with Bondi's grand jury order
Donald Trump celebrated his Justice Department convening a grand jury in cases against officials from Barack Obama 's administration. The president said while he wasn't involved in the decision, he is 'happy' that Attorney General Pam Bondi decided to act this week on the criminal referrals from the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. It's not yet clear which U.S. attorney the DOJ directed to bring the case and convene a grand jury, or which former Obama officials are being targeted. A source familiar with the action, however, speculated to the Daily Mail that the criminal referrals Bondi is acting on are likely for ex-CIA Directors John Brennan and former James Comey. 'They deserve it,' Trump told CNBC Squawk Box host Joe Kernen during a Tuesday morning interview. 'I was happy to hear it.' The victory lap comes after Bondi revealed on Monday that she signed an order directing an unnamed prosecutor to convene a grand jury in the revelations over the inception of the Russia collusion investigation. Gabbard submitted criminal referrals to the Justice Department last month for former Obama and his officials, including Brennan and former DNI Chief James Clapper. She unveiled evidence claiming that Obama and his team illegally conspired in the lead-up to the 2016 presidential election to link Donald Trump to Russian efforts to interfere in the campaigns. Some thought Gabbard's release of documents was a tactic to distract from the botched Jeffrey Epstein files review, which has the DOJ reeling with calls for Bondi to resign. The new grand jury directive from Bondi also follows FBI Director Kash Patel discovering last month a stash of bags in a secret room at the bureau with damning documents related to the Russia investigation that were meant to be burned. The documents were published by Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and consist of the classified annex to former Special Counsel John Durham's final report on the origins of the FBI investigation into Trump's 2016 campaign. Bondi's move on Monday is an escalation that takes President Trump's administration a massive step closer to criminally charging Obama and his former administration officials. 'Pam is doing a great job. I had nothing to do with it,' Trump said to CNBC on Tuesday when asked if he was the one who called for Bondi to act on the referrals. 'I actually read it, just like you did,' he added. Trump lamented to Squawk Box host Kernen that the Durham report annex should have been released earlier. He blamed his former Attorney General Bill Barr for dragging his feet on getting to the bottom of election interference investigations. The president said this allowed former President Joe Biden to take over and his team to 'bury' the revelations. While serving as special counsel, Durham examined the FBI's investigation into potential links between Trump campaign officials and Russia during the 2016 election. He concluded the FBI did not have sufficient evidence to launch the investigation at the time.

Trump on Hispanic farm workers: ‘They don't get a bad back, because if they get a bad back, they die'
Donald Trump has raised eyebrows with comments he made about farm laborers during a phone interview with CNBC. The President spoke on Tuesday, 5 August 2025, explaining his belief that deported immigrant farm employees are not easy to replace with native-born workers. Farmers have been left short of staff due to the Trump administration's ICE round-ups of undocumented migrants. Trump suggested people who live 'in the inner city' are 'not doing that [farm] work' but Hispanic migrants do it 'naturally'. He then launched into a story about a conversation he had once had with a farmer. Trump says he asked, "What happens if they get a bad back?" to which the farmer allegedly responded, "They don't get a bad back, sir, because if they get a bad back, they die".
