Epstein Congress Clintons

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are agreeing to testify in a House investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. But the Republican leading the probe says an agreement had not yet been finalized. Rep. James Comer, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, was advancing criminal contempt of Congress charges against both Clintons Monday evening for defying a congressional subpoena. Attorneys for the Clintons emailed staff for the Oversight panel, saying the pair would accept Comer’s demands and “will appear for depositions on mutually agreeable dates.” But Comer says an agreement had not been reached to avoid a contempt vote.

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have finalized an agreement with House Republicans to testify this month in a House investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. They bowed to the threat of a contempt of Congress vote against them. Hillary Clinton will testify before the House Oversight Committee on Feb. 26. Bill Clinton will appear on Feb. 27. It will mark the first time that lawmakers have compelled a former president to testify. The arrangement comes after months of negotiating between the two sides as Republicans sought to make the Clintons a focal point in a House committee’s investigation into Epstein.

A House panel has released video of last week's depositions with Bill and Hillary Clinton as part of its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
