Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin is facing criticism for denying knowledge of Senator Marsha Blackburn’s attempts to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs during a hearing.
Blackburn accused Durbin of lying about her amendment, but Durbin insisted that the issue had never been raised.
The controversy has sparked questions about why the flight logs haven’t been made public and whether powerful individuals were involved. (Trending: Top Democrat Loses In Historic Landslide)

Fox News host Jesse Watters also questioned why Durbin hadn’t pursued the logs himself.
“Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) falsely claimed he was not aware of Senator Marsha Blackburn’s (R-Tenn.) amendment to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs during today’s hearing with FBI Director Christopher Wray,” Blackburn said.
“Senator Durbin, can I ask you a quick question?” Fox’s Hillary Vaughn asked. “Why won’t you subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs?”
“I don’t know anything about his flight logs,” Durbin said.
“He’s been charged with sex trafficking so why don’t you want to know who was utilizing his private plane?” Vaughn asked.
“That’s never been raised by anyone,” Durbin said.
“She hasn’t said a word to me. Not a word,” he said of Blackburn.
“So why won’t you subpoena them if you can?” the reporter pressed when he expressed concern.
“It’s the first time anyone has raised it,” Durbin said, walking away.
“[W]hen Sen. Marsha Blackburn, from the great state of Tennessee, tried to subpoena the flight logs of Jeffrey Epstein, we were surprised that Sen. Dick Durbin, from the great state of Illinois, was making it difficult. And why hadn’t Dick Durbin subpoenaed the flight logs himself?” Fox News’ Jesse Watters said.
“Why hasn’t any politician until Marsha Blackburn tried to find out who flew on the world’s most notorious child sex traffickers plane? Perhaps they have a good explanation for flying on Jeffrey’s jet.”
“Like Bill Clinton, who was on humanitarian missions, we’re told. Are these flight logs being used as blackmail?” he asked.
“What powerful people were on the plane and what kind of intelligence operation was Epstein running? And why would Sen. Dick Durbin be running interference for a dead pedophile?”
The situation raises concerns about potential cover-ups and the use of the flight logs for blackmail or intelligence purposes.
