Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., called on both President Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to testify about their relationships with Jeffery Epstein, telling NBC News’ “Meet the Press” on Sunday that said he’s working with a Republican colleague to subpoena Lutnick.

Khanna, a member of the House Oversight Committee, referenced former President Bill Clinton’s testimony before the committee last week, saying Clinton “set a precedent” for high-profile figures to testify.

“A new Clinton rule that means that Donald Trump should do the same — answer the questions. Howard Lutnick should do the same,” Khanna told “Meet the Press.” “I’m working with a Republican actually to subpoena Howard Lutnick next week, and I believe he will come before the committee.”

Khanna did not name the GOP lawmaker he is working with, but on Friday, Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., also a member of the House Oversight Committee, said she supported asking Lutnick to testify.

1. Trump's Commerce Secretary, Nutlick, had an "arrangement" with Epstein; why is he still in Trump's cabinet?

Good for the Clinton's, good for the Trump's. Remember, former President Clinton didn't plead the fifth. Maybe the Trump's will do the same.
