James Comer, chairman of the House oversight committee, speaks to reporters alongside Republican members of the committee before a deposition from Hillary Clinton. So the Hillary Clinton who turned up at the reconvened arts centre in Chappaqua was keen to turn the focus back on the role of key Republican figures in the Epstein story. “You have made little effort to call the people who show up most prominently in the Epstein files,” Clinton told the Republican oversight committee chair, James Comer. Republicans are pointing out that the same Democratic lawmakers who are now crying foul chose to sit and do nothing with the Epstein files during the four years of the Biden administration. The long day of what Hillary Clinton described as a “repetitive” schedule of questions from the Republicans must have caused her to revisit the surreal final months of her 2016 campaign.
