Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, January 13, 2026

Former President Bill Clinton appears to have defied a congressional subpoena to appear before the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday morning. Clinton was compelled to sit for a sworn closed-door deposition in the House's bipartisan probe into Jeffrey Epstein, but Fox News Digital did not see him before or after the scheduled 10 a.m. grilling. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., had threatened to begin contempt of Congress proceedings against Clinton if he did not appear Tuesday.

I think Trump should order the Justice Department to release every single file, unredacted, even with victim's faces.

Let everyone eat a part of this shit sandwich.

"Clinton's refuse to appear for Epstein subpoena"

Clinton's what? Never mind, I'm afraid to find out.

"House Democratic caucus chair Pete Aguilar responded to the news that the Clintons have refused to testify in front of the House oversight committee. A move that resulted in chair James Comer announcing a plan to hold Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress.

"This is the same group that said for months they didn't want to release Epstein files and that nothing was there, and so now they want to embrace this and score political points with testimony," Aguilar said of his GOP colleagues.

"Bringing people in for testimony, that's just something that House Republicans want to do to take our eye off the ball."

Bubba refuses to be yet another EPSTEIN DISTRACTION... like ICE, Venezuela, Greenland, Iran, Tariffs, ad infinitum.

Trumpers love their shiny objects.

The subject of the thread is Clinton, Corky,

stop trying to deflect.

I don't care what Trump wants, what Clinton wants, or what whoever wants.

Clinton is trying to fight this. Why? But even then, I say, RELEASE ALL THE FILES, no redactions for anyone.

Lets see what happens. If there's something there to prosecute Trump for, then do it. If there's something there to prosecute Clinton for, then do it.

But, please, stop deflecting.

"Eventually" being the key word in that sentence.

Most times by the time it does come to light, it's too late to do anything about it.

"I say, RELEASE ALL THE FILES, no redactions for anyone."

And the folks you vote for are laughing at your suggestion, while knowing they can still count on your vote.

The same can be said for you Danforth.

Your attempts to demonize the Republican side only is laughable.

"The same can be said for you Danforth."

No it can't. I've been for the release since forever.

You were for it when you thought it would hurt Democrats, then turned against it when it became clear Trump was an integral part of seemingly every page.

"Your attempts to demonize the Republican side only is laughable."

You'd be hard-pressed to find anything good I say about Democrats. It's just the Republicans are so phukkkking worse.

You being fine with the victims being identified publicly so they, too, can "get a part of this shit sandwich" is both predictable and predictably outside the usual practices of American law. But to hell with them, right? Such a MAGAt.

As for Trump, the object of your childish devotion, ordering the DOJ, etc. Just how high are you? He's running the coverup, you effin moron.

Someone should ask Comer about his thoughts on Jim Jordan refusing to appear upon subpoena

The Republican side is the only side that supports a Traitor as President.

But that's only according to the sworn testimony to his Crimes of his own DOJ and literally dozens of other formerly loyal Trumpers.
