Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna plans to subpoena the Jeffrey Epstein state for the “birthday book,” said to hold an alleged note from President Trump. An allegation that Trump denies.

Khanna made the announcement after Bradley Edwards, an attorney for multiple Epstein victims, claimed on MSNBC that the Epstein estate was in possession of the book.

“It is a revelation to me that he said that the birthday book is with private lawyers in the Epstein estate,” Khanna said in a recent interview.

Bombshell revelation by Bradley Edwards on @Lawrence tonight.

The Epstein birthday book is in the hands of the Epstein estate. Lawyers will turn it over.

Khanna is urging a bipartisan effort in Congress to pressure the Justice Department to release any materials pertaining to the Epstein files.

“We subpoenaed the Epstein files, but that’s a hard thing to do to get the Department of Justice to cooperate in releasing those files,” Khanna said. “What’s not hard to do is to subpoena private attorneys in a private estate and to get compliance.”

“We can’t trust the Trump Justice Department. That is going to get slowed down. It’s going to be get bogged down. Even if we subpoena, they can try to defy the subpoena. I don’t trust the DOJ to prosecute themselves for contempt of Congress,” he continued.

“But what we can do through Congress is go after the Jeffrey Epstein estate, and we’ve seen even Republicans are willing to vote with us on that,” Khanna added. “This may be the cleanest way forward.”

Khanna’s remarks garnered plenty of reaction, with several X users wondering why Democrats suddenly seem to be concerned about Epstein victims.

I laugh, where was all this interest during the four years of the Biden Administration?

Ro Khanna doesn’t give a damn about victims, he’s a slimy politician who thinks this is campaign option he’s another useless taxpayer check.

All of a sudden, after controlling the White House for 4 years, “it’s about the victims”.
Classic virtue signaling from Democrats who don’t care about victims, they just care about POWER.

Any interest in these missing children being sex trafficked? Biden let them in with strangers. He stopped DNA testing. He said process them like widgets. Who are they being sold to Ro? You only care about one thing, power. pic.twitter.com/jzLh88czFE

Bullshit it’s about justice. What happened for the last 4 years? It’s justice all of a sudden? You’re such full of it.
