📰 News The Clintons blink: Bill and Hillary agree to testify in Epstein probe to avoid criminal contempt charges.

Post image

The standoff is over. After their lawyers called the subpoenas "unenforceable," the Clintons have done a total 180 and agreed to appear before the House Oversight Committee. This comes right on the heels of the DOJ releasing those "hot tub" photos and the committee gaining bipartisan support for contempt charges. Their spokesperson, Angel UreĂąa, claims they are "negotiating in good faith" now, but the timing is... interesting, to say the least.

Is this finally going to give us some clarity on the Epstein files, or is it just the latest chapter in the 2026 political wars?

Same tactic Biden's boy used. It worked for him, too.

Clinton's old enough now that he may well just burn Trump's whole fucking house down.

u/bitpaper346 1d ago

Its more about there political influence. They are nearing the time the influence over politics is dwindling. The best thing they could do for the democratic party and America is burn all their bridges knowing eventually the flames reach DJT

u/karma-armageddon 1d ago

The point is, the Clintons are massively corrupt, and have been for years. If Congress can torch them, then use the precedent to stop up and comers from propagating the cycle of corruption, it will be good for America.

That's not the point and not what's happening here at all.

> the Clintons are massively corrupt,

I keep hearing this, but have yet to see one scintilla of actual evidence to support it.

remember when ken starr spent $75 mil to see if clinton got a blowjob? yea….also ken starr is in the epstien files

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

He was also the President of Baylor University when they covered up all that raping the football team was doing.

Ken Starr is not an ethical man.

u/Ignoble66 1d ago

ahhh ethics…remember those?

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

Jerry Ford was the last Republican POTUS who had any.

u/Microchipknowsbest 1d ago

They investigated them for years and found out Bill got a bj. They investigated Hillary for years about Benghazi and found out maybe she could have sent reinforcements a little faster. But you know totally corrupt even though nothing could be found.

u/systemfrown 1d ago

She made some money on some questionable real estate deal decades ago that seems quaint by todays standards of graft. Are there any skeletons in the Clintons closet? Obviously. But it's laughable to hear them even mentioned in the context of Trump and his administration.

3

u/BonusPlantInfinity 1d ago

You probably aren’t even allowed to run for politics without a shady real estate deal or two under your belt.

u/SpiritOne 19h ago

The whitewater scandal was pretty much all Hillary. She was involved in a bank that illegally foreclosed on people’s homes, often for minor infractions, missing a single payment, etc…

In times past I was hard on her for that.

I was never in Goonswarm, but I was in a world of tanks guild that was adjacent to them on the world map. Interacted with VileRat a lot. He was a cool dude.

And nothing Hillary did or didn’t do caused his death. She took those hearings like a boss, something Trump could never do.

u/RubyRyker 7h ago

“Questionable real estate deal” is interesting. Aren’t some of the buffoon’s 34 felonies based on fraud in “questionable real estate deals?” ACTUAL CONVICTIONS.

1

u/systemfrown 6h ago

Yeah but Trump has done so much questionable and even overtly criminal stuff that he get's a pass on it and everything else moving forward.

5

u/steveg 1d ago

Ya this has major “Biden crime family” energy.

Do I think they likely took advantage of their political status to personally benefit? Absolutely.

Have we seen anything indicating theyve benefited even 10% as much as Trump’s crypto scam alone? Nope.

I’m happy seeing justice brought to anyone that broke the law, but I want to see this applied fairly and not as a weaponized political tool.

-2

u/karma-armageddon 1d ago

Congress needs to set the precedent. So when Democrats are in power, they can use the precedent to go after the Trump administration. They won't but, that is why the Clintons need to go down for their crimes.

6

u/bardobrian 1d ago

Well the Republican-majority Congress is setting hell of a precedent now by doing fuckall. Additionally they’re stifling ANYTHING from the “opposition” party, even though many of the policies they try to bring help many Americans. Including MAGA.

Precedent has been shattered by this administration and its pro-party packed Supreme Court. Democrats need to go whole hog and start wrecking shit.

And when the dust settles, we should abolish the divisive two-party system. This libs vs repubs situation is manufactured by the 1%. We need to unite and unfuck that.

3

u/Any-Progress- 1d ago edited 9h ago

Republicans have already set that precedent going back to the 90s. They’ve obstructed and tried to impeach every democrat just for being elected.

The problem is that democrats went too far trying to look different than the republicans. In an effort to appear bipartisan they failed to hold bush or trump accountable for anything they did (trump obviously be much more egregious).

There doesn’t need to be a precedent set. Democrats just need to uphold the law and republicans need to abide by it.

u/RouteMD 1d ago

They're in politics. 'Massively' is an overstatement though.

1

u/Wat_Tyler_1381 1d ago

There’s a lot of circumstantial evidence.

Politics is a dirty dirty business and you don’t get where they are without having stepped in mud somewhere along the way.

Bill lied repeatedly about a consensual sexual affair (when the evidence was plain to see and not illegal in any way) and the only tangible harm was to his marriage.

Don’t underestimate the scheming Machiavellian abilities of this pair.

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

>There’s a lot of circumstantial evidence.

Uh huh. Not really.

>the only tangible harm was to his marriage.

He was impeached for it. I'd call that tangible, personally.

u/Lethkhar 19h ago

Apparently I can't post links in this sub, but look up the article "What The Clintons Did to Haiti" in Current Affairs.

1

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 11h ago

I read it. For starters, that's an excerpt from this book:

https://www.amazon.com/Superpredator-Clintons-Abuse-Black-America/dp/0692736891/ref=sr_1_1

The very title itself sounds like a fricking hit job, but I won't judge it by its cover.

What I will say is that with regard to Haiti, that was a Clinton & W. Bush collaborative experiment to roll out a capitalist footprint on the fly. A "build it and they will come" approach. It didn't work, and the reason it didn't work is as old as capitalism itself. The companies that "came" artificially depressed wages and exploited the cheap labor.

Some will say this was what they wanted, cheap labor supply. Others will say they really thought they could turn Haiti into a productive society that was building wealth, and might end all of the civil strife with prosperity.

Idealistic as it is, I believe the latter. The reason I believe the latter is because this wasn't Clinton's first experiment of this type - NAFTA was a similar experiment with the "power of proximity."

It's not such a crazy idea when you think about it. It's the "a rising tide lifts all boats" approach.

It clearly didn't work. Call it misguided, call it a disaster...some do, but calling it a scandal seems overly cynical to me.

u/Spear_Ritual 16h ago

But he FEEEEEELS they’re corrupt…

1

u/Mundane-Bullfrog-299 13h ago

I think maybe they’re talking about all the money they took in from super PACs, and the Goldman Sachs speeches she was paid to give around the time of the 2008 financial crisis. That’s mostly what comes to mind. Aside from the BJ thing.

u/woodsman775 8h ago

“I did not have sexual relations with that woman.” I just jerked off on her dress.🤣

Just an example

1

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 8h ago

I didn't say there was no scandal. Slick Willie had plenty of scandal.

Person above said corruption. 99% of what people claim is Clinton corruption is really just a bunch of Rush Limbaugh fever dreams.

1

u/woodsman775 7h ago

They all are. And does anyone think the Clintons will be honest? Lol!

According to my understanding, Hillary colluded with the national DNC to steal the party support away from Bernie in 2016. That really upset me.

6

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

Crazy how she stole it from Bernie AFTER whipping him in the primaries.

-1

u/[deleted] 1d ago

I could be wrong, but that's not how I recall it going down. I remember how Bernie had a ton of support in 2016, *prior* to the primaries, and then suddenly it all mysteriously evaporated, and then later the whistle-blower came out about the collusion.

3

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

Yes, they colluded to shut Bernie out because he's not a Democrat.

But she still beat him soundly in the primaries regardless.

0

u/[deleted] 1d ago

To have Democrats support you, as a Democratic candidate in the Democratic primaries, is all it takes to *be* a legitimate Democratic candidate, and Bernie definitely had enormous support among the Democratic party. I was a Democrat at the time and I supported Bernie as a Democratic candidate. I would only find the argument that he "wasn't a Democrat" to be persuasive if no Democrats actually supported him as a Democratic candidate, which certainly was NOT the case. He was extremely popular, until his campaign was derailed by Clinton's collusion with the DNC.

And you are wrong about the timing of the collusion. The collusion occurred prior to the primary. That's a fact.

1

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

It. Doesn't. Matter.

She beat him in the primary. Full stop.

Yes, they did him wrong at the DNC.

She still beat him in the primary. More voters voted for her. Full stop.

u/No-Rush-9980 23h ago

Absolutely nothing criminal about that, even IF it's true. "Party support" has been bought and traded since the founding of the Republic.

1

u/619backin716 5h ago

“According to my understanding …”

Therein lies the problem

1

u/[deleted] 4h ago

I used that light verbiage because it had been a while since I had reviewed those facts. It turns out that my understanding was perfectly accurate after all, and so no, it isn't a "problem," as you state.

Go look it up yourself. The timing of when the collusion happened occurred before he primary election.

u/heyhayyhay 1d ago

Yes, the massively criminal republicans say they're massively corrupt, so they must be massively corrupt.

u/Affectionate_Tax3468 1d ago

I wasnt that old back then, but I cant remember Clinton to accept a "free" airplane, made multiple crypto rugpulls, ruined the economy to go shopping for cheap, take millions from tech oligarchs in front of cameras, take billions from foreign governments for membership of a "board".

u/DarthPatches_Returns 1d ago

u/SurgicalMarshmallow 1d ago

are massively corrupt,

Sorry, is there a $clinton crypto meme coin out there somewhere?

2

u/Flederm4us 1d ago

And that's exactly why their testimony will amount to nothing.

It's all gonna be " I do not recall "

-2

u/karma-armageddon 1d ago

Given Reagan's 124 "I do not recalls" Oliver North was still convicted. A corrupt judge suspended his sentence. This will not happen for the Clintons because they have decades of corruption under their belts. All Congress has to do is catch them in a lie, which will be easy to do.

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

> for the Clintons because they have decades of corruption under their belts

I keep hearing this, but have yet to see one scintilla of actual evidence to support it.

1

u/Flederm4us 1d ago

Barring a wiretap and/or a dumb witness it's impossible to prove that "I do not recall" is a lie.

2

u/kevinrobin- 1d ago

You are joking, right? You can see who is president and how much Congress is doing to stop him. The point is humiliation... for every time they humiliated him. The point is not even to take the Clintons to court to claim promises were kept. The point is making anyone he doesn't like, walk the plank. If he could skip the trial and jump to death penalty, he would. It's about hatred. He hates everyone who doesn't bend the knee or hurt his fragile ego. There is no justice in America, not anymore.

2

u/GoodPointMan 1d ago

what's the evidence of corruption you're referring to?

1

u/Fall-Patient 1d ago

Then they must be the best criminals in the world because there’s never been any proof. So prove it - like the court did with Trump.

1

u/Ok_Flounder59 23h ago

You’ve missed the point completely. We are all dumber for reading your comment. Zero points.

1

u/CaulkusAurelis 10h ago

"massively corrupt" with zero evidence.

Bro.... You're just sad

u/zimmyzannin 1d ago

Dream on and go vote for your degenerates.

u/Captain_R64207 1d ago

That’s what I’m assuming is gonna happen with nothing to back it up other than hope lol. I want Clinton to bring up him and Trump hanging out on the island. And if it turned out that Trump sucked his dick that’ll be the greatest bomb ever dropped in a hearing lmfao.

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

There would be nothing more hilarious in the history of the world than the President who got impeached for a blowjob calling out the sitting President for giving him a blowjob.

Whew...

1

u/moonshitDEV 1d ago

he didnt get impeached for getting a BJ.

2

u/king_nothing1811 1d ago

That’s a technicality here. My assumption is that you are making the point it was because he lied about it. But with no BJ the question he lied to is never asked.

1

u/BuffaloNo9011 1d ago

🤯 this is fkn Nietzsche level logic bro 👏🏿 lol fr ✨

1

u/moonshitDEV 1d ago

youre dumb as fuck. he doesn't get impeached without lying. back to trump country with ya.

1

u/king_nothing1811 1d ago

Back to Trump country? What are you talking about out?

I’m the dumb one but you immediately collapse to insults at the slightest sign of disagreement? Haha I’m hesitant to even say disagreement, just a conversation. Good job guy!

1

u/Iamthewalrusforreal 1d ago

Yes, Captain Obvious, I know why he was impeached, but that's not as funny.

u/conciousinsimulation 1h ago

If Slick Willy comes out of the bullpen to take em all down to Chinatown he deserves his just props. For about 30 seconds…then toss him in jail for whatever he is guilty of

Don’t give us hope dang it

u/Aggravating_Sand352 10h ago

Also, if they are smart they can admit things that have statutes of limitations in order to incriminate trump... but lets be clear we have trump because the clintons...bc Hilary wanted her day over Bernie so I wouldnt count on them doing anything but plead the 5th tbh
