The Clinton's ARE GOING TO TESTIFY!!!!! WTH?????

[a kennedy]

Bill and Hillary Clinton have agreed to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee as part of the panel's investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, an Oversight aide said Monday evening.

It's a remarkable reversal for the former president and secretary of state, who were adamant they would defy committee-issued subpoenas and risk imprisonment by the Trump Justice Department as the House prepared to vote Wednesday to hold them both in contempt of Congress.

After both skipped their scheduled depositions earlier this year, the Oversight Committee voted on a bipartisan basis in January to approve contempt measures for each of them.

Although both have said they had no knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, they have maintained that the subpoenas were not tied to a legitimate legislative purpose, rendering them invalid. They also complained the GOP-led exercise was designed to embarrass and put them in jail.

It is not immediately clear when they will appear and if the House will continue to pursue the contempt votes.

"If you try to move forward, that would be insane," the top Democrat on House Oversight, Rep. Robert Garcia of California, told reporters. "I mean, that would be unprecedented. It would be clearly — it would be clearly a demonstration that [Chair James] Comer is actually not interested in hearing the Clintons, but he's only interested in political games. I think that would be a huge disservice to the survivors and to the investigation.”

1. Now Comer doesn't want them to testify.

[newdeal2]

2. They were probably shocked by all the Dems who went along with this charade

They’re being investigated more than the pedo in the White House.

3. I think theyre gonna use this public forum to annunciate exactly that;

and probably, quite a bit more.
Theyre gonna run rings around these toons.
IN PRIME TIME.
I bet Comer changed his mind lol
And, this is Bill and Hillary. You think they won't bring receipts?

The staff had better just go ahead and paint the walls red, it'll be easier to clean.

4. Not sure I understand the "WTH" Did you want them to face prosecution and possible prison time?

They’ll show up and answer questions, the end.

10. I guess I'm just pissed they are involved in this whole circus.

It’s ALL FOR SHOW. AND IT PISSES ME OFF!!!!

5. The Clintons know what they are doing

They are going to expose every effin ReTHUG who has refused to show up and then some

6. They didn't want to be blindsided. But now that the files have been released, they are in a stronger position

Without the files having been released, the repubs could have leveled all sorts of accusations at the Clintons and try to make them prove a negative. Now that the files are out, the facts are on the table and the repubs can't play those games.

7. We like to think that Democrats have equal power when it comes to punishing the opposition...

But, I fear that is not the case.

"Lock her up!" is very real to Hillary, I am sure.

8. That alone would pull the rug out from most of the GOP excuses

Sec. Clinton has already shown, time and again, she will methodically destroy each bs question asked of her and gracefully (but accurately) throw it right back into the questioner's face. I'd think the LAST thing the GOP wants is for the Clintons to testify.

9. Here is Angel Urena, Deputy Chief of Staff for former President Bill Clinton

Angel posted it on X but thankfully Ron Flipkowski reposted it on Bluesky

Bill and Hillary Clinton have agreed to testify under subpoena before House Oversight on the Epstein case.
