Article I: Obstruction of Congress

The Constitution provides that the House of Representatives shall have the sole Power of Impeachment and that civil Officers of the United States, including the Attorney General of the United States of America, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. In her conduct while Attorney General of the United States of America, Pamela Jo Bondi, in violation of her oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, to bear true faith and allegiance to the same, and to well and faithfully discharge the duties of her office, has willfully and systematically refused to comply with the law, in that— (1) Pamela Jo Bondi willfully violated Public Law 119–38 which states that all unclassified records that comply with the permitted withholdings section, must be made publicly available in a searchable and downloadable format not later than 30 days after the date of enactment. Of these files, no record shall be withheld, delayed, or redacted on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary. However, the Department of Justice violated Public Law 119–38 by slow rolling documents and files related to Jeffrey Epstein, with many files being released past the 30 day mark. Additionally, the Department of Justice has claimed that it identified 6 million pages of documents, photographs, and videos related to Jeffrey Epstein, but has released only approximately 3.5 million files as of February 13, 2026. (2) As permitted under Public Law 119–38, the Attorney General is allowed to withhold or redact files that contain personally identifiable information of victims or victims’ personal and medical files and depict or contain child sexual abuse materials. However, on January 30, 2026, the Department of Justice released at least 40 unredacted nude photographs of victims, including some who were underage at the time. Additionally, the Department of Justice released the names, phone numbers, and addresses of victims whose lawyers had identified in correspondence to the Department of Justice, but did not want their identities released. Not only was the release of these unredacted photographs and information highly inappropriate and in contravention of Public Law 119–38, but these disclosures exposed victims of Jeffrey Epstein to potential harassment and undermined the statutory protections afforded to them under Federal law. (3) On August 5, 2025, the House Oversight Committee subpoenaed Pamela Jo Bondi, requiring her to produce documents and communications related to the Epstein Files. This bipartisan subpoena is legally binding, and the House Oversight Committee has threatened legal action against individuals who have previously defied its subpoena powers but have not yet done so in this instance. Pamela Jo Bondi has defied this subpoena and has continued to withhold files related to Jeffrey Epstein and his associates’ illegal activities from Congress. (4) On February 11, 2026, Pamela Jo Bondi testified before the House Judiciary Committee to provide testimony relating to the mission and programs of the Department of Justice. During the hearing, Pamela Jo Bondi misrepresented facts regarding the Mueller investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and the Epstein files investigation. Specifically, Pamela Jo Bondi falsely claimed, while under oath, that Robert Mueller, Special Counsel overseeing an investigation into Russia’s efforts to interfere with the 2016 election, found no evidence, none, of foreign interference. Robert Mueller did find evidence of a social media disinformation campaign run by the Russian Internet Research Agency (IRA), and that the Russian Military Intelligence (GRU) hacked the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the campaign chairman of Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton’s emails. All of which, Mueller concluded, was done in an effort to swing the 2016 election in favor of Donald Trump. Later during the hearing, Pamela Jo Bondi also falsely claimed that there is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime, everyone knows that. Ted Lieu, a sitting Congressman who was questioning Pamela Jo Bondi at the time, brought up evidence that the Department of Justice held that showed the witness statement of a former driver for Donald Trump, who alleged he overheard a conversation between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. The witness statement also stated that the driver met a girl who claimed to have been raped by both Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. In all of this, Pamela Jo Bondi failed to abide by the law. Pamela Jo Bondi has failed the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, she has lied to the American people, and she has obstructed Congress in its efforts to hold those found liable in the Epstein files accountable for their actions. Wherefore, Pamela Jo Bondi, by such conduct, has demonstrated that she is unfit to fulfill the duties of Attorney General of the United States of America impartially, and will remain a threat to the Constitution and the rule of law if allowed to remain in office. Pamela Jo Bondi thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.
