Bill and Hillary Clinton face contempt of Congress for dodging on Epstein subpoenas again

[NY Post] Dems asked for it...
Bill and Hillary Clinton are facing contempt of Congress charges if they don’t appear before a House committee next week to testify in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

The couple was originally scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee in December but those appearances were moved to January 13 for him and the 14th for her at the request of the couple, who cited a conflict.

But now they haven’t confirmed they will be there next week. And Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the chairman of the panel, said he’ll slap them with contempt if they don’t show.

Which means what, in practical terms? Because they can’t be made to feel ashamed.

“The Clintons have not confirmed their appearances for their subpoenaed depositions,” a spokesperson for the committee told the New York Post. “They are obligated under the law to appear and we expect them to do so. If the Clintons do not appear for their depositions, the House Oversight Committee will initiate contempt of Congress proceedings.”

If the couple is found guilty of contempt, Congress can send US Capitol Police to arrest them and bring them before lawmakers.

Ok. That would be very interesting to see.

Bill Clinton has denied ever visiting Epstein’s infamous island and has said he regrets his friendship with the pedophile.

But photos of the former president hanging out with Epstein were revealed last month when the Justice Department released new documents in the case. In one, Clinton is nearly naked in a hot tub with an unidentified woman.

A spokesperson for the Clintons didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. # id) ?>

1 I wish they would shut the hell up with this contempt of Congress bullshit. Please, anyone here tell me when this charge has had any teeth behind it.

2 Might be fun to watch these two throw each other under the bus in public

3 Agree with Frank and Chris on contempt charges. Nothing will happen to them. Ask Eric Holder how much this disrupted his life...

4 It had teeth for Bannon and Navarro.

5 Pretty much political hype unless someone is convicted and given the long corse at a federal grabar hotel. Until then, meaningless rhetoric.

6 The Secret Service will probably be the ones to bring the Clinton's to Washington DC to testify.

I expect lots of variations on "I don't recall" or "On advice of counsel, I am invoking my Fifth Amendment Rights"

7 I am fine with the useless show as long as all the other repeat island visitors get a subpoena as well. Let’s see them all come in and who is willing to talk. Claiming the 5th on camera ends a celebrity. If this is only for the Clintons, it does nothing. It is impossible to publicly shame a Clinton. That’s like stripping a prn star naked. There is no effect.

8 Nothing but bullshit theater by the right. Nothing will come of any of this. NOTHING... It would be best if the F^&KSTICKS in congress all just did their jobs and work on reducing the budget without graft. They are ALL criminals.

9 Pan is exactly correct. The toothless, barking old porch hound that no longer hunts. A meaningless piece of theater and a POX on both houses.

10 The only important value most of the Republicans in Congress have is in keeping the dems out of the majority in either house. Any dem legislative power will short circuit the advancing Trump wave of financial disconnections the dem/swamp are suffering as he castrates the NGO, UN, illegal immigrant fraud, dark-money, billionaire-RICO money structures that have fed the vast array of domestic political destruction.

That is the key to saving what is left of the American Experiment for our children and grandchildren. A destitute dem opposition will take years to reassemble the levels of power that gave us the Biden farce and a 40 trillion dollar national fleecing!

11 The list of owned by Venezuela that
Nicolás Maduro turned over shows us that both parties are full of looters of the US people.

It's time to outlaw lawyers and MBA from Congress and the Senate. Only people who have done worthwhile things should be allowed to run for office.

12 The list is an odd artifact. No one in Washington confirms it or denies it. The list exists in another dimension not discernible to them like closed captioning on my television. No journalist asks about it in a press conference. Curious. Rand Paul is silent. He has always been so principled.
