Summary

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee are demanding Howard Lutnicks resignation as Trumps Commerce Secretary nominee due to his ties with Jeffrey Epstein. Lutnicks connections to Epstein include a $50,000 donation, a Hillary Clinton fundraiser invitation, and a business venture. Democrats accuse Lutnick of lying about their relationship and deem him unfit for the position. Republicans acknowledge Lutnicks lack of transparency but see no criminal evidence. The bipartisan probe continues, with Republicans set to question former Attorney General Pam Bondi next, as the White House remains silent.
