REP. JAMES COMER: Contempt proceedings against the Clintons' begin today!

@RepJamesComer

Facing contempt of Congress, the Clintons’ lawyers made an untenable offer: that I travel to New York for a conversation with President Clinton only. No official transcript would be recorded and other Members of Congress would be barred from participating. I have rejected the Clintons’ ridiculous offer.

The Clintons’ latest demands make clear they believe their last name entitles them to special treatment. The House Oversight Committee’s bipartisan subpoenas require the Clintons to appear for depositions that are under oath and transcribed. Former President Clinton has a documented history of parsing language to evade questions, responded falsely under oath, and was impeached and suspended from the practice of law as a result.

The absence of an official transcript is an indefensible demand that is insulting to the American people who demand answers about Epstein’s crimes. As part of our investigation, the House Oversight Committee has released transcripts of interviews with former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr and former U.S. Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta, which has provided much needed transparency to the public. Without a formal record, Americans would be left to rely on competing accounts of what was said.

Former Secretary Clinton’s on-the-record testimony is necessary for the Committee’s investigation given her knowledge from her time as Secretary of State of the federal government’s work to counter international sex-tracking rings, her personal knowledge of Ms. Maxwell, and her family's relationship with Mr. Epstein.

Contempt proceedings begin tomorrow.

Steve Bannon spent 4 months in prison, and paid a fine, after being convicted of contempt of congress.

The Peruvian homo gunslinger, Little Beto Garcia, took up defense of his sexual deviant pals, Da Clintoons.

That peasant doesn’t realize that the Clintons need not bother to even recognize him.

The hearing was a big bunch of nothing. One R rep even had the nerve to blame some judge (WHO SHE HASN'T FILED TO IMPEACH) for Epstein files delay.

The Clintons were NOT held in contempt and NOT arrested. Surprise surprise.

Nothing. Nothing did happen, nothing will happen. Expect more dishonest promises about hearings, statements, investigations, debates, votes etc...EVERYTHING EXCEPT ARRESTS!!

The office and position of President demands a higher execution of responsibility and the Clinton's have been legally subpoenaed.

Come in or get arrested.

The Clintons have been accommodated far too many times in the past. They’ve gotten so use to it, they’ve only grown bolder in their demands.

"We know nothing will happen...but disrupting their lives like they did continuously for Trump...works for me."

Trump's HOUSE WAS RAIDED. Trump's MUGSHOT WAS RELEASED. Stone was PERPWALKED. Bannon/Navarro were JAILED. Guliani was bankrupted.

It is easy to define justice, and this ain't it.

Only ARRESTS matter!!

Even if they were to get them in front of the Oversight Committee, all they’d hear out of either of them is “I don’t recall”.

But I’m all for dragging them both through the mud - particularly Hitlery.
