Comer threatens the Clintons with contempt for refusing to be deposed in Epstein probe

The House Oversight chair has sought to interview Bill and Hillary Clinton since August.

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer has threatened to pursue contempt charges against former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton if they do not sit for depositions in Congress’ probe of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

His warning Friday came after the committee released new photos from the estate of the late convicted sex offender, including a signed photo depicting the former president smiling alongside Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving 20 years in prison for her role in his child sex trafficking operation.

Comer excoriated the Clintons in a statement for apparently refusing to participate in the investigation. The House Oversight Committee subpoenaed the Clintons in August, and has requested they sit for depositions next week.

“It has been more than four months since Bill and Hillary Clinton were subpoenaed to sit for depositions related to our investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s horrific crimes. Throughout that time, the former President and former Secretary of State have delayed, obstructed, and largely ignored the Committee staff’s efforts to schedule their testimony,” Comer said.

He said the House Oversight Committee will seek to hold both Clintons in contempt of Congress if they do not appear for depositions or reschedule in the coming weeks. Comer scheduled Bill Clinton’s deposition for Wednesday and Hillary Clinton’s deposition for Thursday.

“If the Clintons fail to appear for their depositions next week or schedule a date for early January, the Oversight Committee will begin contempt of Congress proceedings to hold them accountable,” said the statement.

Bill Clinton’s ties to Epstein have been publicly known for years. His association included traveling on Epstein’s private plane after he left office. A spokesperson for the former president has said he cut off ties with Epstein prior to his 2019 arrest and was unaware of Epstein’s alleged crimes.

And even if Dukhat does remember those days, the New Democrats of the 1990s would be considered Republicans today. The modern Democratic Party bears no resemblance to what it was during the Clinton years.

"And even if Dukhat does remember those days, the New Democrats of the 1990s would be considered Republicans today."

Unless their names are Obama or Pelosi ... in which case they are called communists.

"Broken borders. That's an oxymoron, something we can't tolerate. Borders are by their nature our definition as a Nation and our protection as a country. Broken borders, that doesn't, they don't exist. We can't tolerate them.

So let's say from the start that we all in this body, and I know I can speak very firmly for the Democrats, support strong border control. And it must be part and the first part of any comprehensive immigration reform. We have, it is an obligation as elected officials to keep the American people safe. And our borders are our first line of defense, one of our early lines of defense to do that.

Democrats support also enforcing laws, current laws, against those who came here illegally and those who hire illegal immigrants. Yet the Bush administration has refused to do just this. Imagine that for all of this talk about illegal immigration to the United States and going after those workers who are working here illegally, and we should. But we also must have employer sanctions. Where are these people working? Why are we not enforcing the law against employers who hire illegal, illegal, undocumented people here? The Bush administration has prosecuted only three employer sanctioned cases in the last fiscal year. Only three cases. When, yes, when are we going to take this issue seriously?

Mr. Speaker, we all know what we must do.
Democrats have long called for strong border security, effective law enforcement, and for comprehensive immigration reform. In all that we must do at elected officials, we have the responsibility to make the American people safer and to make America stronger. We can make America stronger, not only at our borders, but in upholding our values and our principles.
