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.
