House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman James Comer announced that former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Democratic presidential candidate and secretary of state Hillary Clinton, will be required to testify in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein case.

"The House Oversight Committee is compelling the following individuals to appear for depositions through issued subpoenas," Comer wrote on X, alongside a list of names that includes the Clintons.

Specifically, the former president is scheduled to testify on October 14, while the former secretary of state will appear five days earlier, on October 9.

But they won’t be the only ones testifying before the committee. Former FBI Directors James Comey and Robert Mueller are also set to appear, along with six former attorneys general: Merrick Garland, William Barr, Alberto Gonzales, Jeff Sessions, Loretta Lynch and Eric Holder.

The subpoenas for the Clintons came as no surprise. In late July, a House Oversight subcommittee voted to compel the former president and the former secretary of state to testify regarding their alleged ties to Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime associate.

The remaining individuals were also named by the subcommittee to testify in connection with the sexual predator case.
