Clintons should ‘think long and hard’ about defying Epstein subpoena warns top House Republican
Bill and Hillary Clinton have been put on notice by a top House Republican who said that they should “think long and hard about” any ideas to defy a subpoena to testify about their connections to Jeffrey Epstein.
The Clintons are among the former government officials who have been called on to give their depositions about the notorious sex trafficker, testimony being sought by the GOP-led House Oversight Committee, which is probing the Epstein files.
“If someone doesn’t comply with a subpoena, we’ve seen it happen in the past, in both my committee, as well as on the Jan. 6 committee, when the Democrats had the majority, and you can hold them in contempt of Congress, and with a Republican attorney general, that’s something that I think that the Clinton legal team is going to think long and hard about,” House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) said during an interview on NewsNation’s “The Hill.”
“You’re not going to have a lot of sympathy, probably from the Trump DOJ, if the Clintons failed to comply with a bipartisan, congressionally approved subpoena, which is what that was,” Comer added.
The Oversight boss said that the probe’s bipartisan support is going to make it harder for “Slick Willie” to wriggle off the hook.
“Obviously, when you subpoena a former president, your odds aren’t the best at getting them in if you look at history. But what makes this different is this subpoena was approved in a bipartisan manner by a subcommittee vote,” Comer told NewsNation’s Blake Burman.
“So you had Democrats and Republicans on the record voting to subpoena that whole list you showed, and there were Republicans and Democrats on that list,” he said, adding that he has also subpoenaed current Attorney General Pam Bondi for the Epstein files.
While Democrats and their friends in the media have been pulling out all the stops to tie President Donald J. Trump to Epstein with a weekslong flurry of sordid allegations, old pictures, and a parade of sketchy characters, the truth is that Bill Clinton was much closer to the deceased pedophile and rumored sex blackmailer.
Epstein not only began his regular visits to the White House shortly after Clinton’s inauguration in 1993, but the former president also took multiple trips onboard the fiendish sex offender’s private airplane which was dubbed the “Lolita Express” for its reputed hosting of airborne sexual escapades, the type that could have been an irresistible allure to the notorious Democrat horndog.
Among the flights was a 2002 trip to Africa where Clinton was launching a new nonprofit AIDS initiative, touching down in five countries and spending a day with then-South African President Nelson Mandela, a cherished liberal icon.
Joining Clinton as guests of Epstein were comic Chris Tucker and “House of Cards” actor Kevin Spacey, among others.
“I felt Epstein put the president at risk with those young girls on board,” Spacey said during an interview with journalist Piers Morgan last year. “It was disturbing. There were young girls on those flights. I didn’t understand at the time who they were or why they were there.”
Mr. Clinton appeared to be greatly enjoying the trip, with one photo being unearthed of him relaxing while being worked on by a 22-year-old massage therapist who was employed by Epstein while in an African airport lounge.
Chauntae Davies, the young masseuse who was rubbing the ex-POTUS, was one of Epstein’s victims, accusing him of sexual assault, alleging that she was taken advantage of by the wealthy financier and madame Ghislaine Maxwell.
“The first encounter I had with him, he masturbated in front of me,” Davies said, according to a 2019 CBS News report. “And obviously, that alone should have been enough for me to never come back, but the way that they were able to orchestrate and manipulate the situation, you know, led me to believe that something like that wouldn’t happen again, so I did go back a second time.”
“It was about the third or fourth encounter meeting, the two of them, where things progressed to rape,” she said.
The former president took an estimated 26 trips on the “Lolita Express,” and according to recently deceased Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre, Clinton was spotted frolicking with “two lovely girls” on Little Saint James, Epstein’s steamy private Caribbean island, nicknamed “Orgy Island” and “Pedo Island” by the locals.
The island paradise has long been rumored to have been a honeypot where Epstein hosted influential guests and accumulated video evidence of their illicit sexual escapades.
Epstein and Maxwell were regular visitors at the White House during the Clinton administration, dropping by 1600 Pennsylvania NW 17 times during the former president’s two terms in office.
There is also the bizarre picture that Epstein had prominently displayed in his Manhattan mansion of Mr. Clinton lounging in a chair in a blue dress, pointing his finger; a painting that has sparked much online speculation about what the depraved sex fiend had on the former president, one of the Democratic Party’s biggest rock stars for more than three decades.
In addition to the Clintons, Comer’s committee has also sent subpoenas to former attorney generals Merrick Garland, Bill Barr, Jeff Sessions, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, and Alberto Gonzales, along with former FBI directors James Comey and Robert Mueller, who is reportedly now a dementia patient.
Mr. Clinton may have good reason not to want to answer questions about his relationship with Epstein.
