Who Do You Invite To Your Daughter’s Wedding?

Posted on by

I have three daughters. I was involved in two weddings and one elopement. Wedding invitations go to friends and sometimes business associates, but they rarely go to people you don’t know. That might be a problem for the Clintons as they testify before the House Oversight Committee in their Jeffrey Epstein probe–Ghislaine Maxwell attended Chelsea Clinton’s wedding. I am not sure if Jeffrey Epstein was there.

On Thursday, Fox News reported:

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is accusing the GOP-led House Oversight Committee of using her to “distract” from President Donald Trump during her high-stakes testimony in Congress’ Jeffrey Epstein probe.

“A committee endeavoring to stop human trafficking would seek to understand what specific steps are needed to fix a system that allowed Epstein to get away with his crimes in 2008,” she is telling the panel, according to her opening remarks.

“But that’s not happening. Instead, you have compelled me to testify, fully aware that I have no knowledge that would assist your investigation, in order to distract attention from President Trump’s actions and to cover them up despite legitimate calls for answers.”

“I do not recall ever encountering Mr. Epstein. I never flew on his plane or visited his island homes or offices. I have nothing to add to that,” her remarks state.

“Like every decent person, I have been horrified by what we have learned about their crimes. It’s unfathomable that Mr. Epstein initially got a slap on the wrist in 2008, which allowed him to continue his predatory practices for another decade.”

The House Oversight Committee’s deposition is officially kicking off on Thursday morning after months of back-and-forth.

“No one’s accusing, at this moment, the Clintons of any wrongdoing. They’re going to have due process,” Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., told reporters shortly before it began. “But we have a lot of questions, and the purpose of the whole investigation is to try to understand many things about Epstein.”

I have no idea what the Clintons did or didn’t do. I do, however, think that if the full story of Jeffrey Epstein ever comes out, we will see the same amount of resignations of people of both political parties in high places that is currently happening in Europe come to America.

The Case Is Moving Forward

On Wednesday, Fox News posted an article about Bill and Hillary Clinton’s choice to ignore a Congressional subpoena. When Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro did that, they were sent to jail. It will be interesting to see what happens with the Clintons. I suspect they are calling in a lot of favors right now.

The article reports:

The House Oversight Committee voted to refer former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for chamber-wide votes on criminal contempt of Congress charges with the help of multiple Democrats, including two members of the far-left Squad, for defying subpoenas related to the panel’s Jeffrey Epstein probe.

Lawmakers voted to advance a pair of contempt resolutions against the Clintons on Wednesday after they did not appear for scheduled depositions earlier this month.

The committee voted 34-8 to advance one contempt recommendation against Bill Clinton, with two members voting present, and another on Hillary Clinton in a 28-15 vote, with one member voting present. Nine Democrats voted with Republicans to advance contempt recommendations against Bill Clinton and three Democrats joined Republicans in the vote against Hillary Clinton.

…The Democrats who voted to advance Hillary Clinton’s resolution were Stansbury and “Squad” members Lee and Tlaib.

“The committee does not take this action lightly. Subpoenas are not mere suggestions,” Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., said of the Clintons’ no-show. “[Subpoenas] carry the force of law and require compliance. Former President Clinton and Secretary Clinton were legally required to appear for depositions before this committee.”

“They refused,” he added.

The article concludes:

“No one should be above the law, including presidents and former presidents, and congressional subpoenas are an important part of that rule of law. And I think the Clintons should be here. I think it’s very shameful that they’re not,” Min (Rep. Dave Min, D-Calif.) said.

With the committee having voted to suggest House-wide contempt resolutions against the Clintons, the chamber will likely consider them sometime in February, according to statements Comer made to Fox News Digital last week.

Stay tuned.
