WASHINGTON (RTWNews) — Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced they will not comply with a congressional subpoena related to the ongoing investigation surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. In a letter shared on social media, the Clintons criticized the House Oversight Committee probe spearheaded by Republican Rep. James Comer, calling it 'legally invalid' and accusing it of aiming to imprison them. We will forcefully defend ourselves, they emphasized.
Comer has indicated his intention to pursue contempt of Congress proceedings against the couple next week, an action that could lead to complex legal ramifications. He noted that the Clintons aren't accused of any specific wrongdoing but claimed they have questions to answer concerning Epstein's case.
Bills from the Clintons portray a deep concern about the lack of fairness in the investigation and the selective enforcement of subpoenas against them, contrasting with other former officials being allowed to contribute written statements.
While Bill Clinton has maintained he has never been implicated in wrongdoing linked to Epstein, Republicans have pointed to their past connections as they demand transparency in Epstein’s exploits. Epstein was arrested in 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges and died by suicide while awaiting trial.
The Clintons reiterated their commitment to providing any available information regarding Epstein’s horrific deeds, underscoring the severe nature of his actions, which brought about their ongoing frustrations with the inquiry.
