BREAKING: Bill and Hillary Clinton Agree to Testify After Comer Moves Forward in Holding Them in Criminal Contempt of Congress
Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed to testify before the Oversight Committee after Chairman James Comer moved forward in holding them in criminal contempt of Congress.
“They negotiated in good faith. You did not,” Clinton spokesperson Angel Ureña said on X. “They told you under oath what they know, but you don’t care.”
“But the former President and former Secretary of State will be there,” the Clinton spox added.
“They look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone,” he added.

The House Oversight Committee last month voted to hold the Clintons in contempt for defying congressional subpoenas in its Epstein probe.
Nine Democrats joined the Republicans and voted 38-4 to recommend holding Bill Clinton in contempt.
Three Democrats joined the Republicans and voted 28-15-1 to hold Hillary Clinton in contempt.
The House of Representatives was set to hold a contempt vote this week and as the Clintons requested special treatment.
The Clintons requested:
1) The Committee must conduct a transcribed interview with Bill Clinton in lieu of a deposition.
2) The Committee must agree to a four-hour time limit for Bill Clinton’s testimony.
3) Bill Clinton must be the one who designate a transcriber to create an opposing transcript.
4) The Committee must agree to a limitation to the scope of Bill Clinton’s testimony.
“After defying lawful subpoenas, Bill and Hillary Clinton are trying to dodge contempt by requesting special treatment,” the Oversight Committee said.
Chairman Comer promptly shut it down.
The Clintons are in contempt of Congress. Their attorneys’ latest letter makes clear they still expect special treatment because of their last name.
The Clintons do not get to dictate the terms of lawful subpoenas.
I have rejected their latest offer. https://t.co/BI0LAiCpI3
