""This Committee has acted in good faith. We've offered flexibility on scheduling," Comer argued ahead of the vote."
""The response we received was not cooperation, but defiance, marked by repeated delays, excuses and obstruction.""
""little information""
The House Oversight Committee voted to hold former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in criminal contempt of Congress after both declined to comply with subpoenas related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Republican members said they offered scheduling flexibility but the Clintons refused closed-door depositions last week. The Clintons called the subpoenas legally invalid and said they already shared with the committee what "little information" they know. The committee approved referrals that will go to the full House and, if approved there, to the Justice Department for potential prosecution. Democrats criticized the action as partisan, and some Democrats joined Republicans in the votes, revealing internal tensions over transparency versus defending party figures.
