Bill and Hillary Clinton cave to Oversight committee and agree to testify in Epstien probe

Bill and Hillary Clinton have agreed to testify in the House Oversight Committee‘s investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein ahead of the House moving forward with contempt proceedings, a spokesperson said.

The reversal from the Clintons comes after Chairman James Comer (R-KY) rejected an earlier offer from the couple to testify under limitations, as the House Rules Committee was marking up the legislation to move forward with holding the two in contempt.

“They negotiated in good faith,” Clinton spokesperson Angel Ureña wrote in a post to X. “You did not. 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. They look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone.”
