Transcript

00:00About the Epstein files, anything you can request through your committee process?

00:05Obviously, we're all curious about it.

00:08So, you know, I think there's a lot of discussion taking place as to what can be done,

00:15and hopefully something will be decided very soon.

00:18Are these active discussions with the Speaker, with the White House?

00:22I haven't discussed anything with the White House.

00:24I've had a lot of discussions with members of my committee.

00:27The majority of the members of my committee have a lot of questions.

00:31They're confused over some past statements that Attorney General Bondi said versus, you know, what's being said now.

00:39So I think that there are a lot of discussions being taken place as to what legal options there are.

00:47So we'll just see what happens.

00:50What are some of those options?

00:53Well, I mean, you know, there's always an option to request information.

00:56There's an option to talk to people, do voluntary interviews, depositions, things like that.

01:03But, you know, it's hard to request information when the Department of Justice says there is no information.

01:08So that's one of the hurdles here.

01:11But there are a lot of ongoing discussions.

01:14I've talked to a lot of people on my committee, obviously, and a lot of people on the Judiciary Committee and other committees.

01:20So I think that there will probably be some decision here very shortly as to maybe next step type options.
