CNN’s Reid: Republicans Subpoenaing Ex-DOJ Officials Is Part of a ‘PR Effort to Spread Blame’

EXCERPT:

REID: “Historically, the Justice Department doesn't like to hand sensitive material over to folks on the Hill because they leak. And this is something they're uncomfortable with releasing on their own terms. So it would surprise me if they were willing to comply with this very extensive, very broad subpoena. But there's something else that's here, and Lauren touched on it. I mean, this also has the purpose of trying to spread responsibility for the current political firestorm they are facing, right? I mean, this is the result of Attorney General Pam Bondi promising more transparency and then backtracking. It is the second in a series of major PR blunders she has made related to the Epstein files.”
