The Clintons on Wednesday doubled down on their vow to fight back as Rep. James Comer and other congressional Republicans vowed to pursue contempt of Congress charges against the former president and former secretary of State over their defiance of subpoenas in the panel's Epstein investigation.

And it comes as Comer vowed to hold both Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress during proceedings scheduled for next week, saying the former secretary of State "joined her husband in defying a bipartisan, lawful congressional subpoena to show up today."
On Wednesday -- in a press release from the office of the former president -- the Clintons contended they have gone "above and beyond" what others have been asked to do by the committee, providing what they describe as "comprehensive" sworn statements listing "everything they have to offer" on the topic of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
"You probably don't know this because James Comer doesn't want you to," the statement says. "President and Secretary Clinton swore to the truth under penalty of perjury. James Comer hasn't told you that and has instead resorted to lying in every appearance he's made this week."

(467 posts)And there were no consequences. Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro also defied subpoenas but they faced consequences.
The Clintons should start holding press conferences where they talk about Sasha Riley and Virginia Giuffre and read excerpts from her book.

(1,645 posts)at this point, that honestly doesn't thoroughly believe that the ENTIRE Republican Party doesn't need to obey ANY regulation or law, at any level, in the entire United States????????????
The Republicans only use Laws, and the Constitution when they can construe/manipulate it to THEIR INTERPRETATION and for their purposes.......
Seriously, there are three concrete truisms for Republicans:
Hypocrisy
Every last thing spewed by them is a blatant and flagrant Lie
Everything they say is 180 degrees from Reality
Those are their total being.............

(7,433 posts)Are there any files about Epstein and the Clintons? Are there any files about Jefferey Epstein and his criminal associates existing somewhere?
Just wondering. Im sure those files would answer a lot of the questions a Congress critter committee would ask.

(10 posts)If there's anything incriminating for Trump in the Epstein files MAGAts in congress and SCOTUS will retroactively lower the age of consent to 13, and blame the victims. Protect the King at all cost.

Just like every other Republican that Satan ever defecated, he would lie to his dying mother for idle amusement.
