President Bill Clinton and Hillary faced contempt of Congress votes after both skipped their depositions in the House Oversight Committee’s Jeffrey Epstein probe.
Bill will testify on February 27, while Hillary will appear on February 26.
After a back-and-forth between Chairman James Comer and the Clintons’ lawyers, they agreed to sit down with the Committee.
“Once it became clear that we would hold them in contempt, the Clintons completely caved and will appear for transcribed, filmed depositions this month,” said Comer.
In July, Republicans and Democrats on the Federal Law Enforcement Subcommittee voted unanimously to subpoena the Clintons, along with us, for the committee’s probe.
Comer issued the subpoenas in August.
Bill was scheduled to testify on October 14, but he did not show up. Comer rescheduled the appearance for December 17, but Bill said he had to attend a funeral.
Bill then did not appear at his January 13 deposition.
Hillary did not show up for her October 9 and December 18 depositions. Comer rescheduled for January 14, but she did not appear.
I wonder if the Clintons thought the Democrats would protect them.
They were wrong.
Republicans and Democrats voted to recommend the House find the Clintons in contempt of Congress.
