US EditionPelosi privately blasts Democrats for vote to hold Clintons in contempt in Epstein probe: CNN
Pelosi criticized nine Democrats who voted to hold the Clintons in contempt amid ongoing subpoena negotiations in the Jeffrey Epstein probe, reflecting party divisions.
- On Thursday, Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi privately chastised committee Democrats for backing a contempt move while Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton were still negotiating with the House Oversight Committee.
- Negotiations over interview terms included a January 19 follow-up after the Clintons offered on January 16 to make Bill Clinton available, but Rep. James Comer rejected the offers while suggesting an agreement was possible.
- The vote split with nine Democrats supporting contempt against Bill Clinton on Wednesday, with three backing the effort for Hillary, citing subpoena power and legal caution.
- House Democratic leadership, seeking to avoid a floor fight, said they want to resolve the dispute with Rep. James Comer before any contempt proceedings and Pelosi suggested pausing until the Justice Department releases all Epstein investigative files.
- Critics point to inconsistent targets, noting Republicans politicize the Clintons while Pam Bondi, Attorney General, has not released Epstein files required by December 19; legal experts at Georgetown Law and former Oversight staff warn prior contempt cases like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro risk inconsistent treatment.
