What am I missing? Why is Hillary Clinton being forced to testify before Congress?

She was not a part of anything, she doesn't know anything; she didn't pal around with Jeffrey Epstein; there aren't hundreds of photos of her posing with Epstein on the internet. What does she have to do with any if it? Simply because of who she's married to? Is that why they've been out to get her for years?

This is harassment pure and simple, with a huge bit of hypocrisy thrown in. When is DJT going to be forced to testify before any tribunal for his obvious involvement with Epstein? I won't be holding my breath.

So it's either testify by his rules, or face contempt charges

As to "why" she was called, who knows

And while I think her having to testify is silly, at least she will no doubt frustrate the Republicans who will struggle to keep up with her (again).

There is no reason for her to be exempted due to her "duties" as FLOTUS. She is involved with Baron and herself, not flotus duties. She should be subpoenaed to testify about her time with Epstein prior to marrying that piece of liquid crap.

Remember when they made her sit for 11 hours during the first t administration. Hatred for her is red meat to the magas.
