James Comer calls Bill Clinton ‘prime suspect’ in House Epstein probe, says testimony could expose ties

WASHINGTON, DC: House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer called former President Bill Clinton a "prime suspect" in sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's probe on Monday, August 11.

Interestingly, Clinton has reportedly never been accused of wrongdoing by any of Epstein's victims. The former president earlier said through a representative that he did not know about Epstein’s crimes.

James Comer says there's a 'very good chance' to get Bill Clinton to testify

During an interview with Newsmax, host Rob Finnerty told James Comer, "I just want to ask you one question, Mr Chairman. The American people want to know what happened on Epstein Island. I’m not gonna drop this topic. You’ve subpoenaed Bill Clinton. He’s gonna fight you tooth and nail, with the best lawyers in the country in some cases. Do you think Bill Clinton ever actually testifies?"

In response, Comer said he had a “very good chance” to get Clinton to testify after expected legal resistance and then waded into murky territory.

"Everybody in America wants to know what went on in Epstein Island, and we’ve all heard reports that Bill Clinton was a frequent visitor there, so he’s a prime suspect to be deposed by the House Oversight Committee," Comer said.

He added, "So hopefully we’ll win that court battle with that subpoena and see President Clinton in October."

Meanwhile, some Republicans are backing a bipartisan House push for the release of all the files related to the disgraced financier despite the objections of Speaker Mike Johnson.

Moreover, President Donald Trump reportedly has been told he is mentioned in the documents, but the context is not known publicly.

Furthermore, the POTUS has never been investigated regarding anything involving Epstein.
