The list wasn’t short. Alongside Bill and Hillary Clinton, subpoenas were issued to former FBI Director James Comey; ex-Attorneys General Alberto Gonzales, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, William Barr, and Jeff Sessions; former Special Counsel Robert Mueller; and the Department of Justice itself—for every scrap of Epstein-related records in its possession.
Comer didn’t mince words when warning about the consequences of noncompliance. “I’ve never once lost a subpoena battle in court,” he declared in a YouTube video released Wednesday.
“Obviously, when you subpoena a former president, your odds aren’t the best at getting them in if you look at history. But what makes this different is this subpoena was approved in a bipartisan manner by a subcommittee vote,” Comer explained.
He emphasized that this wasn’t just a Republican push—Democrats also voted to issue the subpoenas. “So you had Democrats and Republicans on the record voting to subpoena that whole list you showed, and there were Republicans and Democrats on that list. In addition to those subpoenas, I also subpoenaed Pam Bondi for all the Epstein files,” he said, referring to the former Florida Attorney General.
According to Comer, the demand for answers is growing across the country. “Everywhere I’ve been in Kentucky this week, people want to know about the Epstein files,” he said.
The committee, Comer stressed, is united on this. “If someone doesn’t comply with a subpoena, we’ve seen it happen in the past, in both my committee, as well as on the Jan. 6 committee, when the Democrats had the majority, and you can hold them in contempt of Congress, and with a Republican attorney general, that’s something that I think that the Clinton legal team is going to think long and hard about,” he warned.
“You’re not going to have a lot of sympathy, probably, from the Trump DOJ, if the Clintons fail to comply with a bipartisan, congressionally approved subpoena, which is what that was,” Comer added.
He also made it clear that no one is above the rules—not even allies. “Congress is very clear in this. We expect the American people to get the truth about the Epstein files,” he said.
The subpoena letter to Bill Clinton was blunt. “By your own admission, you flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane four separate times in 2002 and 2003. During one of these trips, you were even pictured receiving a ‘massage’ from one of Mr. Epstein’s victims. It has also been claimed that you pressured Vanity Fair not to publish sex-trafficking allegations against your ‘good friend’ Mr. Epstein, and there are conflicting reports about whether you ever visited Mr. Epstein’s island.”
It continued, “You were also allegedly close to Ms. Ghislane Maxwell, an Epstein co-conspirator, and attended an intimate dinner with her in 2014, three years after public reports about her involvement in Mr. Epstein’s abuse of minors.”
The letter to Hillary Clinton connected additional dots, noting, “Maxwell’s nephew worked for your 2008 presidential campaign and was hired by the State Department shortly after you became Secretary of State.”
With bipartisan backing, legal pressure mounting, and the public demanding answers, the Clintons may find this subpoena impossible to ignore.
