A unanimous 41-0 vote on contempt shows Congress takes these Epstein connections seriously no matter who you are.
Leon Black sues House Oversight to block subpoenas in Epstein probe
x/jeffrey-epstein
— Sep 3, 2026
Billionaire Leon Black sued a U.S. House Oversight Committee to block subpoenas demanding NDAs and his deposition in the Epstein probe, arguing the order exceeds authority and intrudes on privacy; he skipped a scheduled deposition and calls the inquiry a fishing expedition, while the committee defends the probe as necessary to uncover mishandling and Epstein's network, leaving the possibility of contempt if he continues to refuse.
