James Comer Reveals It's 'Very Possible' GOP Will Depose Howard Lutnick Over Epstein Amid Report He's in 'Hot Water'

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) revealed on Thursday that it was “very possible” U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick could be made to testify over his relationship with the late serial sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

After Comer argued during a press conference that the deposition of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was the result of a “bipartisan motion,” and had nothing to do with “a partisan witch hunt,” a reporter asked, “In the spirit of bipartisanship, would you then ask Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to come testify? It seems like he has some information.”

“That’s very possible, and I think it’s a good possibility that his name will arise in some questioning today,” replied Comer, who continued:

And I want to remind everyone, we’ve already brought in Alex Acosta and Bill Barr for depositions. That’s two Republicans in the Trump administration, so this isn’t just about Democrats. This is about anyone that has any knowledge of Epstein, the investigation. I think we all agree the government failed, the government failed the victims, and what our role is– we can’t prosecute anyone, but what we have been doing is getting transparency to the American people. We subpoenaed the estate. That has nothing to do with the discharge petition. We subpoenaed the documents for the estate, that’s what the victims asked us to do, and what you’re seeing is there is accountability finally happening.
