**Clintons Ordered to Testify in Epstein Investigation by House Oversight Committee**
**Congressional subpoenas target key figures connected to Jeffrey Epstein, including former President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton.**
Former U.S. President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee as part of an ongoing investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender who died in jail in 2019. The subpoenas, issued by Republican House Oversight Chairman James Comer on Tuesday, are part of a broader inquiry that also targets eight other prominent individuals with ties to Epstein.
The congressional probe is seeking more information regarding Epstein's activities and connections, particularly after the Trump administration chose not to disclose further federal files thought to contain a "client list" of notable men associated with Epstein. This decision has incited ire among supporters of Trump, as well as some liberal advocates who believe full transparency is crucial.
The subpoenas extend beyond the Clintons, affecting various figures associated with Justice Department leadership across multiple administrations, including Attorney General Merrick Garland, along with former attorneys general Jeff Sessions and William Barr. Notably, former FBI directors James Comey and Robert Mueller are also required to testify.
While Epstein was charged with sex trafficking of minors in 2019 during Donald Trump's presidency, he died in jail under controversial circumstances that prompted widespread speculation. This summer, current U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed that a review of Epstein's records found no evidence to support the existence of a "client list," asserting that Epstein’s death was ruled a suicide.
The urgency for greater transparency concerning Epstein's associates has become particularly pronounced among various members of the Republican caucus, indicating a growing bipartisan interest in the investigation. The House Oversight Committee's actions signal a commitment to continuing its inquiry, despite the potential reluctance of the subpoenaed individuals to disclose information, raising questions about their forthcomingness and the implications for ongoing case developments.
