Eventually, even the most guarded hinges begin to complain.

Subpoenas Force the Issue

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton agreed to sit for sworn depositions before Congress as part of the congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.

After months of resistance through legal channels, House Republicans issued subpoenas for their testimony. The demands focused on personal interactions, travel, and any awareness of Epstein's criminal conduct. At first, attorneys pushed back, but as deadlines closed in, patience ran out.

Comer Raises the Stakes

Escalating the standoff by preparing a contempt of Congress vote, Rep. James Comer (R-KY), Chairman of the House Oversight Committee. Contempt of Congress has teeth, carrying real penalties, including fines and possible jail time.

Comer has been insisting on live, closed-door depositions rather than written responses or transcribed interviews. The committee is looking for accountability through sworn testimony, not curated, lawyer-approved statements.

Agreement Under Deadline Pressure

Late on February 1, attorneys representing the Clintons notified committee staff of their willingness to appear. Deputy Chief of Staff to Bill Clinton, Angel Ureña, confirmed their decision publicly, an agreement that ended an immediate contempt vote, though the committee demanded locked-in dates by the end of the day. 

The Clintons' spokesperson Angel Ureña also issued a response on social media.

"They negotiated in good faith. You did not. They told you under oath what they know, but you don't care," he wrote.

"But the former President and former Secretary of State will be there," he added. "They look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone."

Compliance replaced confrontation, at least on paper.

Epstein's Network and Unanswered Questions

Cultivating relationships across politics, finance, and entertainment, Epstein entertained people for years. Flight logs show Bill Clinton traveled aboard Epstein's plane several times during the early 2000s. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton encountered Epstein at select events during the same period.

Investigators want to know who knew what, when awareness formed, and whether warnings were ignored. The inquiry also touches the broader system that allowed Epstein to secure a lenient plea deal in 2008 while victims were kept behind closed doors.
