On Nov. 27, 2017, Epstein was scheduled to have lunch with Thiel. Steve Bannon was scheduled to have lunch with Epstein on Feb 16, 2019.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, a GOP spokesperson for the House Oversight Committee accused Democrats of cherry picking the documents.
“It’s unfortunate that Democrats continue to meaninglessly cherry-pick documents and politicize this investigation. They are intentionally withholding documents that contain names of Democrat officials, and the information they released today is old news. We are focused on delivering transparency and accountability for the survivors, and will release documents in full,” the spokesperson said.
Fox News Digital reached out to representatives for Musk, Thiel, Bannon and House Oversight Democrats for comment.
