As we’ve already reported, the House Oversight Committee has been working overtime to get Bill and Hillary Clinton in the chair to answer what they knew — and when they knew it — about Jeffrey Epstein.
The committee subpoenaed both of them back in August for depositions scheduled in October. But, shocker of shockers, neither Clinton bothered to show up. Instead, we got the usual song-and-dance about “scheduling conflicts,” followed by weeks of back-and-forth excuses.
Committee Chairman Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky is clearly tired of the Clintons’ games and he spoke about it last week:
So we expect the Clintons to come in, or I expect the Clintons to be met with the same fate that Bannon and [Peter] Navarro were met with when the Democrats were in control.
As a reminder, both Steve Bannon and Navarro were prosecuted, convicted, and jailed.
Now we’re getting even more insight into what’s been going on behind the scenes. It turns out the Clintons’ lawyer tried to slip by with a written statement summarizing the supposedly “little” they knew about Epstein.
Nice try. Comer shut that down immediately:
?Democrats and Republicans approved subpoenas in July for Bill and Hillary Clinton.
After good-faith efforts to schedule depositions, further delays aren’t acceptable. Given their Epstein ties, avoiding Congress would be in defiance of subpoenas & warrant contempt proceedings. pic.twitter.com/mxxgq3GX7v

“Given the admission that your clients possess some relevant information, your position amounts to a demand that the Committee forgo in-person testimony, potentially relevant to its legislative oversight,” the powerful GOP chairman said.
“Additionally, your suggestion that your clients’ testimony would not be relevant to the stated purposes of the Committee’s investigation because the events in question took place outside of the Clintons’ respective official duties misses the Committee’s point,” Comer added. “It is precisely the fact President Clinton and Secretary Clinton each maintained relationships with Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell in their personal capacities as private citizens that is of interest to the Committee.”
Comer has now set brand-new deposition dates: Dec. 17 for Bill Clinton and Dec. 18 for Hillary Clinton. And this time, he isn’t leaving room for games. He warned their attorney that any further delay “will warrant contempt proceedings.”
Gee, if the Clintons only have a “little” to say, why not just come in and say it? Why stall? Why hide behind lawyers and scheduling excuses? One has to wonder.
There’s no shortage of legitimate questions waiting for them — especially for Bill. Lawmakers will undoubtedly want clarity on his trips, his interactions, his knowledge of Epstein’s activities, and the nature of their relationship. As for Hillary’s testimony, well… let’s just say that will be must-see political theater.
But the key point is simple: This all needs to happen under oath.
Time is running out. It’s time to implement the Bannon-Navarro principles that the Democrats previously used.
Do it Jamie. CONTEMPT OF CONGRESS = JAIL TIME. https://t.co/4q9MKAWaLi
