In a dramatic escalation of accountability, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), head of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, has ramped up her pressure on Attorney General Pam Bondi to unveil the long-anticipated client list linked to Jeffrey Epstein. Her urgency is underscored by the recent suspicious deaths of two Epstein victims, which she argues further erodes public confidence in the Department of Justice (DOJ).
On Monday, Luna expressed her concerns on X, stating:
“With two Epstein victims now deceased, every day that the DOJ postpones releasing the Epstein client list diminishes public trust and puts more lives at risk. I urge the DOJ and @AGPamBondi to act without delay — the American people deserve to know the truth.”

Luna’s urgent call to action follows the shocking death of Virginia Giuffre, a prominent accuser of Epstein. This tragic event has amplified her frustrations regarding the DOJ’s apparent reluctance to release vital documents related to Epstein’s notorious sex trafficking operation.
As the chairwoman of the House Oversight Committee’s Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, Luna has been tireless in her quest for transparency. Her demands extend beyond the Epstein files to include documents pertaining to the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Previously reported by , Luna has taken Bondi to task publicly. On February 25, 2025, TGP detailed her confrontational exchanges with the Attorney General, highlighting her letters sent to the DOJ on February 11 and 19, which sought updates on the declassification process.
The DOJ’s lack of response led Luna to voice her frustrations on X, where she remarked, “On Feb 11 & Feb 19, the House Oversight sent a letter to the DOJ asking for the status on the release of the Epstein files, as well as JFK documents. The DOJ has yet to respond. I’m reaching out here because we can’t seem to get a response from the AG. AG Pam Bondi, what is the status of the documents? These were ordered to be declassified.”

Bondi has repeatedly asserted that she is reviewing the Epstein files, claiming on Fox News that they are “sitting on my desk right now,” and that their release is at the directive of President Trump.
However, these promises have yet to translate into the comprehensive disclosure that Luna and her supporters are demanding. Reports indicate that Bondi’s initial release of documents was met with backlash, particularly after conservative influencers received binders labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1,” which offered little new information.
Luna clarified that neither she nor her task force had any input on the release.
The documents provided to the public were primarily Epstein’s address book, falling woefully short of the complete client list that lawmakers and the public have been clamoring for.
Luna voiced her disappointment on X, stating, “Neither I nor the task force were involved in the release of the Epstein documents today… A NY Post article just revealed that the documents will simply be Epstein’s phonebook. THIS IS NOT WHAT WE OR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ASKED FOR and is a complete letdown. GET US THE INFORMATION WE REQUESTED!”

In a March interview with Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) on OANN, Luna expressed skepticism about the eventual release of the Epstein client list.
When Gaetz posed a direct question:
“Are you confident, as you sit here now, that there will be an Epstein client list that the American people will see?”
Luna’s response was telling:
“I’m not confident about the Epstein client list because I haven’t received a briefing yet from the Department of Justice. I’ll learn more tomorrow. However, based on what I’m hearing from the attorney general, she continues to say that she will release something, so I have to take her at her word. Whether that something is a full list remains to be seen. We have asked for the complete list and all relevant documentation. We are pushing for maximum transparency. Yet, we do not hold the declassification authority; that responsibility lies with the attorney general.”
