Clintons Defy Capitol Testimony in Epstein Probe, Court Fight Looms

TL;DR Summary
Bill and Hillary Clinton refused to testify in the House Epstein probe, calling subpoenas invalid and signaling a lengthy legal battle with Rep. James Comer. Comer has threatened to hold them in contempt if they don’t appear for live deposition, while the Clintons have provided sworn statements and argued the inquiry is politically motivated and outside the proper legislative scope. The clash could lead to a House vote and possible Justice Department action if contempt is enforced, as both sides prepare for a protracted confrontation over congressional powers and executive accountability.
