Hillary, Bill Clinton Face Criminal Contempt Charges After Defying House Subpoenas in Epstein Probe

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer says contempt of Congress proceedings are moving forward after Bill Clinton refused to comply with a congressional subpoena tied to the committee’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. Comer said the subpoena was lawful and noted that other witnesses—including former officials—appeared under the same authority.

Comer also said the committee will pursue contempt against Hillary Clinton following disputes over her appearance, after attorneys for the Clintons argued the subpoenas were invalid and infringed on separation of powers. The chairman criticized Democrats for skipping the scheduled deposition and confirmed the contempt process would begin immediately, setting up a high-stakes legal fight between Congress and the Clintons.

Hillary, Bill Clinton stare down criminal contempt charges after defying House subpoenas in Epstein probe

Bill Clinton defies congressional subpoena, Comer says contempt charges moving ahead

House Oversight Chairman James Comer says Bill Clinton refused to comply with a subpoena tied to the Epstein investigation and outlines the next steps in the case on ‘Hannity.’

Hillary and Bill Clinton are both now risking possible criminal charges after defying subpoenas to appear before the House Oversight Committee.

Hillary Clinton was compelled to sit for a sworn deposition behind closed doors on Wednesday morning as part of the House’s bipartisan probe into Jeffrey Epstein.

However, the former secretary of state refused to appear, and the House Oversight Committee will begin contempt of Congress proceedings, a source familiar told Fox News Digital.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., confirmed to reporters Wednesday morning that the Clintons would face punishment.

“We’re going to hold both Clintons in criminal contempt of Congress,” Comer said.

“The [Epstein estate] complied with our lawful subpoena. [Former Attorney General Bill Barr and former Trump Labor Secretary Alex Acosta] came in and were deposed because of our lawful subpoenas. This same lawful subpoena was issued to the Clintons, and they defied it,” Comer said.

He told Fox News Digital that the committee would begin the contempt process on Wednesday.

Comer also criticized Democrats for not showing up to the scheduled deposition, including the committee’s ranking member Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif.

“The question that should be asked of the Democrats on the committee are, do you still support hearing from the Clintons?” Comer posed.

She was expected to skip the meeting after her and former President Bill Clinton’s attorneys wrote to House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., arguing the subpoenas were not legally enforceable.

A committee aide said earlier that the committee would initiate contempt of Congress proceedings “in the coming days” if she did not appear. Comer is already moving forward with contempt proceedings against Bill Clinton.

The lawyers’ letter argued Comer’s subpoenas were “invalid and legally unenforceable, untethered to a valid legislative purpose, unwarranted because they do not seek pertinent information, and an unprecedented infringement on the separation of powers.”

    Hillary, Bill Clinton Face Criminal Contempt Charges After Defying House Subpoenas in Epstein Probe

    Because why? Because Clinton’s know better than anyone that the entire DE FACTO western hemisphere bully pulpit is a complete sham/scam/flimflam that is fully 1,000,000 % illegitimate. The “HOUSE” has been fully irrevocably defunct and out of business since 1861. There is no legitimate lawful government left anywhere inside the WHOLE ENTIRE DEFACTO. So that said, of course they are NOT going to show up to play charades and admit to anything. Who is at the bottom of this mess and this dogpile?
    1. People who lie and claim they are semites or modern day Jews.
    2. People who lie and claim they are England natives (fake Royalty from old day germany for instance.
    3. People who lie by claiming the BAR ASSOCIATIONS are legitimate
    4. People who spout hearsay from the lying cheating infiltrated press

    Hardly anyone paid attention to the accusation of Juanita Broadderick, who strangely resembled his mother. Having WAPED her he began his political career, getting the mommy demons out of him.
