Former President Bill Clinton was due to testify this Tuesday at the House Oversight Committee's bipartisan investigation into pedophile and sex trafficker Jeffery Epstein. His wife, former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, was set to testify Wednesday.The Clintons had been summoned to testify over their lengthy and well-documented relationship with the deceased abuser.In a statement released by the couple addressed to House Oversight Republican Chair James Comer, they called the subpoena "legally invalid.""A legal analysis prepared by two law firms and provided to you yesterday makes clear your subpoenas are legally invalid. You claim your subpoenas are inviolate when they are used against us, yet were silent when the sitting President took the same position, as a former president, barely more than three years ago," read the statement released former President's X account.In response to this statement, and in response to the failure to testify, the House Oversight Committee has moved to hold Bill Clinton in contempt..Comer says that they have given the Clintons more than enough time to prepare and cooperate. "We've communicated with President Clinton's legal team for months now, given them opportunity after opportunity to come in, to give us a day, and they continue to delay, delay, delay," Comer said. "I think it's very disappointing."Despite the continued release of documents and photos showing that the former president and Epstein had quite a friendly and in-depth relationship, Clinton continues to deny any wrongdoing in regard to his and Epstein's relationship.
