Congressional Republicans are threatening to hold Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress after the Democratic former president and presidential candidate refused to testify in a GOP-led House probe into Jeffrey Epstein.
A blistering letter from the Clintons to House Oversight Committee chair James Comer states that “every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles and its people, no matter the consequences.”
It’s congress as well, they can only call witnesses or documentation for purposes of reviewing/updating/creating legislation. So it is only even a valid summons if they are saying they want to create legislation that investigates the executive branch members and their connections to root out corruption. Thus it would make more sense to summon Trump and Bannon as well for their current ties to the executive branch, rather than Bill, who has not been a member of executive branch for 25 years.
Congress writes legislation, it doesn’t judiciate anything.
Congress does have a huge investigative role when it comes to anyone who holds a constitutional office, though. And that role’s actually gotten bigger since the “POTUS Immunity” and “14th needs a law” bullshit from 2024.
The rules that apply to Clinton equally apply to W, Obama, Biden, and ****face…
You need to change the term holds to held for your argument to work. Also impeaching/removing someone from an office they left 25 years ago clearly doesn’t make sense, so the investigation could only be to update legislation or it is invalid.
Even the article stated that majority of these people who have been summoned were deemed invalid
