House Oversight Chairman Rep. James Comer revealed he “rejected the Clintons’ ridiculous offer.”
Comer said, “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.”
Comer ended it by saying, “Contempt proceedings begin tomorrow.”

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…

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) revealed that he had “rejected” a “ridiculous offer” from the Clintons for an unofficial interview regarding the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
In a post on X, Comer stated that the “latest demands” by the Clintons “make clear they believe their last name entitles them to special treatment.” Comer also criticized former President Bill Clinton for having “a documented history of parsing language to evade questions.”
“Facing contempt of Congress, the Clintons’ lawyers made an untenable offer: that I travel to New York for a conversation with President Clinton only,” Comer said. “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,” Comer added. “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.”
A spokesman for Bill Clinton accused Rep. Comer of misrepresenting the negotiations.
A top spokesperson for former President Bill Clinton sharply accused House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., of misrepresenting negotiations in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, insisting the Clintons never rejected sworn testimony or transcripts as the committee prepares to vote on contempt.
Angel Ureña, deputy chief of staff to the former president, said Comer was using a dispute over testimony format as a pretext to move toward contempt proceedings.
Ureña’s remarks came after Comer accused the Clintons of defying bipartisan subpoenas and demanding limits on testimony that would bar other lawmakers and prevent the creation of an official transcript.
“We never said no to a transcript. Interviews are on the record and under oath,” he wrote on X. “Whether it was written or typed isn’t why this is happening. If that were the last or only issue, we’d be in a different position. You keep misdirecting to protect you-know-who and God knows what.”
No-one is above the law!
