The House Republican Oversight Committee has subpoenaed the estate of Jeffrey Epstein to obtain certain documents, as well as the now infamous “birthday book” prepared by Ghislaine Maxwell for Epstein’s 50th birthday.

The House Oversight Committee has deepened its probe into the federal government’s investigation of the late, disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, issuing a subpoena to his estate for an array of documents.

According to CNN, a letter from Republican Chairman James Comer to Epstein’s estate indicates that, according to several reports, the estate is in possession of the famous “birthday book”.

This book, prepared by Ghislaine Maxwell for Epstein’s birthday in January 2003, is said to contain messages from several of his close friends and family.

The committee is seeking, among other things, in this subpoena documents such as Epstein’s will, financial records and confidentiality agreements he signed.

It is also asking for any documents or records that could reasonably be interpreted as a potential list of clients involved…

The committee’s request comes after the Trump administration handed over the Epstein files, but several members of a bipartisan committee, eager to make the records public, say they essentially contain only documents already available and would represent only about 1% of what the government actually holds.

Part of this committee, as well as several observers, accuse the administration of withholding information, especially since we learned a few weeks ago that a campaign to black out and trace Trump’s name had been carried out by the FBI a few months ago.

The House Republican Oversight Committee seems determined to get to the bottom of the Epstein affair, despite the Trump administration’s attempts to block it. With this new subpoena, it is also setting a September 8 deadline for Epstein’s estate to hand over all documents.
