WASHINGTON — Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton refused to comply with subpoenas from the Republican-led House Oversight Committee investigating Jeffrey Epstein, their attorneys said in an eight-page letter. Chairman Rep. James Comer said the panel will move next week to begin contempt of Congress proceedings after Bill Clinton missed a scheduled deposition and Hillary Clinton declined to appear. The committee subpoenaed both in August and sought closed-door questioning about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The Clintons called the probe legally invalid and said they will defend themselves. Based on 8 articles reviewed and supporting research.
