Hillary Clinton’s political nonprofit is offering merchandise referencing contempt as the former secretary of state recently testified before the House Oversight Committee during its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
On the shop page for Clinton’s nonprofit organization, Onward Together, apparel, including hats, sweatshirts, and t-shirts bearing the phrase “Hold me in contempt until the cows come home,” is currently available for purchase.
The slogan references when members of the House Oversight Committee voted this year to recommend holding Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress as part of the panel’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. The Clintons had previously offered to provide sworn written statements rather than appear in person, but committee chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) insisted they testify live before the panel.
(…) Clinton has continued political activity through Onward Together, the nonprofit organization she launched in 2017 after losing the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump. The group, structured as a 501(c)(4), can raise funds without publicly disclosing donors, a type of political funding commonly known as “dark money.”
She criticized the influence of “dark money” during her presidential campaign and called for a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision, which cleared the way for nonprofits to spend unlimited sums of money through the 501(c)(4) designation.
