In a public letter sent Tuesday, the Clintons argued the subpoenas were invalid and claimed the effort was politically motivated, designed to embarrass them and potentially lead to prison. They also said they had already provided Congress with any information they possess regarding Epstein, the late convicted sex offender with whom Bill Clinton had documented interactions.
Comer also confirmed the committee intends to depose Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence in Texas for her role in Epstein’s sex trafficking operation. Lawmakers previously suggested Maxwell would not cooperate, and her legal team has indicated she is likely to invoke her Fifth Amendment rights.
