Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, is pressing FBI Director Kash Patel on his handling of the Epstein files ahead of his appearance before the panel next week.

In a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner, Raskin questioned why the FBI has not released an alleged client list maintained by disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, who is accused of running a sex trafficking ring for the country’s elite. Raskin cites comments Patel made before being sworn in as FBI director. “Simple. Because of who’s on that list,” Patel previously stated.
