US EditionHouse Committee Votes to Hold Bill and Hillary Clinton in Contempt
The Republican-led House Oversight Committee voted to hold the Clintons in contempt for refusing subpoenas in the Epstein probe; passage requires a House majority vote.
- On Wednesday, the House Oversight Committee advanced resolutions to hold former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt, escalating scrutiny in the Epstein probe.
- The Clintons refused in-person depositions, arguing the subpoenas lack a clear legislative purpose and offered written statements instead, which Comer rejected.
- Vote tallies showed cross-party alignment as nine Democrats joined Republicans to advance contempt for Bill Clinton, while three Democrats supported charges against Hillary Clinton; contempt carries a $100,000 fine and one year in jail.
- The full House of Representatives will decide whether to cite the Clintons for contempt and could refer the matter to the Justice Department, with a floor vote delayed until February by Republican leaders.
- Comer scheduled Ghislaine Maxwell to give a deposition on February 9 as recent contempt convictions of Navarro and Bannon highlight increased enforcement in related probes.
