How the call settles
House Oversight Committee publicly demands a closed-door/private deposition of the Clintons instead of agreeing to a public hearing
Our reasoning
YES on the research record because The Clintons asked for public depositions; Chairman Comer instead held both behind closed doors (transcribed and filmed) on Feb 26 (Hillary) and Feb 27, 2026 (Bill). After her 6-hour closed-door deposition Hillary Clinton said it was disappointing that the committee 'refused to hold a public hearing.'. Applied stored rule: House Oversight Committee publicly demands a closed-door/private deposition of the Clintons instead of agreeing to a public hearing.
Outcome evidence
The Clintons asked for public depositions; Chairman Comer instead held both behind closed doors (transcribed and filmed) on Feb 26 (Hillary) and Feb 27, 2026 (Bill).
