Bill and Hillary Clinton refuse to testify in House Epstein probe, could be held in contempt

WASHINGTON, Jan 13 (Reuters) – Bill and Hillary Clinton on Tuesday refused to testify in a Republican-led congressional investigation of the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, saying it was a partisan exercise.

“Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles and its people, no matter the consequences,” the Clintons wrote in a letter to Republican Representative James Comer, who chairs the House of Representatives Oversight Committee. “For us, now is that time.”
