The House Oversight Committee released a tranche of thousands of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein's case on Tuesday night.
The surprise file dump came ahead of an expected House-wide vote to formalize the committee's Epstein inquiry on Wednesday afternoon.
That vote, while largely symbolic, would also direct the House Oversight Committee to release the Epstein files sent by the Department of Justice (DOJ).
Nearly 34,000 pages are being released that include the DOJ's interview with Ghislaine Maxwell and videos that appear to show the inside of Epstein's Palm Beach home.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., subpoenaed the DOJ in early August for all documents pertaining to its investigation of Epstein and Maxwell.
The subpoena was directed by a bipartisan vote during an unrelated House Oversight Committee hearing in late July.
"This is the most thorough investigation into Epstein and Maxwell to date, and we are getting results," Comer said during a House Rules Committee meeting on Tuesday evening.
"We have already deposed former Attorney General Bill Barr, the Department of Justice provided nearly 34,000 pages of documents and will produce more, which are being made public as we speak."
Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the committee, claimed that some 97% of those documents were already public, however.
