House Republicans are poised to escalate their clash with the Clintons over the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The GOP-led House Oversight Committee plans to vote next week on holding both Bill and Hillary Clinton in criminal contempt of Congress after they refused to sit for depositions, Chair James Comer announced on Wednesday. The move follows Bill Clinton’s no-show for a scheduled deposition on Tuesday and Hillary Clinton’s absence from one set for Wednesday, per NBC News. Comer said the panel negotiated « in good faith » with the Clintons’ attorneys for months and already rescheduled depositions once to accommodate the Clintons’ attendance at a funeral, but he claimed their lawyers never offered new dates.
