Former US president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton said Tuesday, January 13, they will refuse to comply with a congressional subpoena for them to testify in an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
The Clintons slammed a Republican-controlled committee’s attempts as “legally invalid” as GOP lawmakers prepare contempt of Congress proceedings against them. In a letter released on social media Tuesday, the Clintons told the chair of the House Oversight Committee, Republican Representative James Comer, he was on the cusp of a process “literally designed to result in our imprisonment.”
Comer said he will begin contempt of Congress proceedings next week. That would potentially start a complicated and politically messy process that Congress has rarely reached for.
I’m going to laugh so hard if this is their 5D chess move.
