Remember Jack Smith had to demand a chance to testify publicly. I hope the Clintons did the same.

Just the photos alone in front of Congress will be shown that they are quilty.


The republicans don’t care what they say, only that they can embarrass them.

Bill will also say something that is dumb.

I’m sorry. I have high regard for both of them,

But this country is terminally stupid

but with their experience at being absolutely dragged through the mud by both Rs and the press, I was kind of hoping they would just say "nope".

They got shit on by fellow Democrats who were all too happy to throw them under the bus to prove they weren't using the Epstein situation for political purposes and they were about to be held in contempt by a House vote because those same Democrats were going to vote with Republicans to punish the Clintons for not testifying.

So they agree to testify.

And now they have DUers and others out there criticizing them for their decision to do so.



Well, it will be nice to have Hillary kick congressional representative ass again.

It's been over 20 years since Bill had any contact with Epstein. I haven't seen a single thing that linked Hillary. I'm not sure she even met him. During the immediate years after his presidency, Bill's focus was on the Clinton foundation. Hillary was a newly elected Senator.

I agree bringing them forward is an attempt to embarrass them. It's also an attempt to change the narrative.

I think they'll attempt to get Bill angry. Sometimes as people age they have a shorter fuse. Hopefully he doesn't take their bait.
