Clinton Depositions on Epstein Released by House Oversight Committee

Washington D.C. – The House Oversight Committee has released videos of depositions taken last week from former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as part of its ongoing investigation into the late Jeffrey Epstein. The release of the approximately four-and-a-half-hour testimonies from each Clinton comes days after they appeared before the committee to answer questions regarding Epstein and his associate, Ghislaine Maxwell.

Key Testimony Highlights

During his deposition, Bill Clinton recalled a conversation with Donald Trump that occurred “20-something years ago” on a golf course. According to Clinton, Trump mentioned having flown on Epstein’s aircraft and stated they had “great times together” before a falling out over a real estate deal. Clinton testified that Trump “never said anything to me [that] he was involved with anything improper in regard to Epstein.” NBC News first reported on this exchange in 2019, noting the rift between Trump and Epstein was linked to a dispute over a Florida mansion.

Hillary Clinton’s testimony included questions about a note she wrote for Epstein’s 50th birthday book. The BBC reports that the note, which has been previously publicized, has drawn scrutiny. Clinton confirmed the note’s authenticity, stating she does not recall who requested she write it.

Ongoing Investigation

The release of these depositions is part of the House Oversight Committee’s broader probe into Epstein’s crimes and potential connections to prominent figures. PBS NewsHour notes that the committee is seeking to uncover the full extent of Epstein’s network and any potential complicity.

Further Information

The full depositions are available for public viewing, allowing for independent review of the testimony provided by both Bill and Hillary Clinton.
