Former President Bill Clinton and ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have refused to comply with House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer's demand that they appear for depositions regarding the Jeffrey Epstein files.
According to the New York Times, the Clintons are challenging Comer's authority to compel their testimony, effectively calling his bluff about pursuing contempt of Congress charges.
In a letter to Comer obtained by the Times, the couple wrote, "Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles and its people, no matter the consequences. For us, now is that time."
Observers have suggested Comer is using the Clintons as political targets to deflect scrutiny from Donald Trump, who maintained a longtime relationship with convicted sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein. The Trump administration's Department of Justice has been criticized for delays in releasing the complete Epstein files.
