Forcing Bill Clinton to testify in the Jeffrey Epstein probe will backfire on Republicans, House Democrats warned.
Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the ranking member of the Oversight Committee, said the Republicans’ actions create a precedent for Democrats to demand President Trump’s testimony on his connections to Jeffrey Epstein and beyond.

Democrats have indicated they will subpoena Trump if they win control of the House in the November election.
