Hillary Clinton Attacks James Comer Over Epstein Hearing: ‘If You Want this Fight, Let’s Have It — In Public’
Hillary Clinton attacked House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) on Thursday as she pushed for a public hearing after she and her husband agreed to testify before the committee as part of its investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “If you want this fight,” she told Comer, “Let’s have it — in public.”
Former President Bill Clinton and his wife are set to testify on their relationship with the disgraced financier before the House Oversight Committee later this month. The plan was put in place after Comer rejected requests for a closed-door deposition and written testimony.
On Thursday, the former Secretary of State accused Comer of “moving the goalposts,” suggesting the committee chairman made a last-minute decision to have the couple’s depositions be video recorded.
“For six months, we engaged Republicans on the Oversight Committee in good faith. We told them what we know, under oath. They ignored all of it. They moved the goalposts and turned accountability into an exercise in distraction,” Hillary Clinton wrote in a Thursday X post.
So let’s stop the games.
If you want this fight, @RepJamesComer, let’s have it—in public.
You love to talk about transparency. There’s nothing more transparent than a public hearing, cameras on.
We will be there.

In a follow-up post, the twice-failed presidential candidate challenged Comer to a “public” fight.
The Clintons are going to Clinton and try to spin the facts.
On Tuesday, at the eleventh hour, their lawyers, Jonathan Skladany and Ashley Callen, said their clients accepted the terms of the depositions.
These terms are no different than any other deposition we have held on… https://t.co/Sxq3HSOJi1 pic.twitter.com/2MgiynzbH0
