Did you know that Leon Black bailed out of a Congressional Hearing today regarding the Epstein files?

They had to produce subpoenas mid-hearing to get him to answer questions and he refused. He was combative and walked out. I have to give it to Comer. He was finally trying to get answers regarding the Epstein files. But it does leave me suspicious.I am wondering if a big story is about to break.

Comer had those subponeas right. Next time he's up there, he WILL BE under subpoena.

He showed up when commanded by HUAC.

(hmm. image link doesn't work. Just look at the link below for pictures ) .

85 pictures, including him being arrested for wearing an American flag design shirt to Congress. (I saw someone arrested for that "crime" way back when)
