Bill and Hillary Clinton’s depositions to the House Oversight Committee about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein are making headlines.
We takes a deep dive into the former President and First Lady’s explanations for specific photos found in the Epstein Files release, as well as their sometimes fiery reactions to the committee members’ questions.
Bill and Hillary Clinton’s depositions to the houde oversight committee.
It’s getting a lot of attention right now , with people analyzing their answers that the former president and former first lady gave in response to questions about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
How did they know him ? did they ever see or hear about any wrongdoing?
When did they cut ties with the accused trafficker?
Now , we are going to do a deeper dive into all of the Clinton’s explanations, and sometimes we will tell you it got a bit tense.
Every day we learn about new information about Jeffrey Epstein, his inner circle , his wide -ranging influence, his alleged connections to powerful people all over the world .
And for years, former President Bill Clinton, because a lot of the focus is more on him , we’re actually going to focus more on his testimony in this episode.
It is has been brought up in the connection with Epstein and we know that Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and the allegations surrounding him running this sex trafficking operation, right.?
This rampant aleged abuse of teenage girls, that in and of itself can be explored, but the other part that’s being explored right now with so much ofthe release of the Epstein files has been didother people know about what he was accused of doing ?
Whas it an open secret in some circles? that seems to be what the House Oversight committee is trying to get to .
And now the former president has been caught up in this .
Why the former president has acknowledged taking trips on Epstein’s private Jet in the years after he left office as part of his charity work with the Clinton foundation.
I’ts also , you know , the Clinton Global initiative
His name appears on flight logs along with secret service agents,Ghislaine Maxwell, right? convicted sex trafficker.
She was connected to the Clintons.
Even atended their daughter Chelsea’s wedding , she was a plus one.
But anyway, and here’s the thing too, Epstein reportedly donated money that was connected to president Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaigne.
And for Hillary Clinton’ssenate campaign in 2000.
And according to ABC News, Epstein had visited the white house multiple times during Bill Clinton’s presidency.
Signedi n on te visitor logs reportedly 17 occassions between 1993 and 1995.
You can understand why there was a request,more like a demand for the Clintons to sit down, be interviewed and answer Questions.
And the Presidet Clinton has also appeared in a few photos with Jeffrey Epsten and there was a very bizarre, apparently framed porttrait of Clinton wearing a dress , pearls , high heels, this was apparently hanging in Epstein’s Manhattan home,very weird ,and of course, we know there are the photos of him in a hot tub, we’re going talking about that .
But to be clear , there is no evidence that we have seen or that has been reported by other outlets in the Epstein files suggeting the Clintons engaged in any criminality or had knowledge of any criminality,including what Epstein was accused of doing.
And look, this is strange because these depositions, we’re kind oof analyzing them like a jury would , right?
Credibilty ,body language, responses, but it’s not like the Clintons are on Trial.
It’s not like they’re the subject of criminal investigation or anything like that or facing criminal charges.
They’re not , but assessing their answers is part of the commmittee’s work in better understanding Epstein’s world,What he was up to .
and for their purposes seeing if there needs to be a change in the law, does there need to be reforms to make sure that there’s not an Epstein 2.0 in the future.
But also whether or not they can refer and also wheter or not they can refer any matters , any criminal matters to the Departement of Justice.
So, the committee members had a lot of questions for the Clintons and after months of trying to get them on the record and even there was this threat to hold them in contempt.
The former president ,former secretary of state agreed to two 4 -hour depositions in Chappaqua , New York , this is where they live at the city’s performing arts center.
Now , we want to dig in here , so , let us first start just a little bit more with Hillary Clinton and then we’ll focus more on Bill Clinton.
So , Hillary’s deposition was first last Thursday, the depsition again were filmed the video were released monday evening, so ,here’s something new.
This is where Clinton, Hillary Clinton stated unequivocally that she had no relationship with Epstein or Maxwell and that she didn’t even know most of the people the committee was asking her about.
And look, She’s not connected to Epstein the same way that her husband apprently was , she reportedly would consistently say to the committee;
You ‘ ll have to ask my husband”
But, we wil tell you something that really only a video playback of a deposition could capture ,transcript wouldn’t really do this justice.
This was fireworks. okay. this moment ,because after an hour of testimony things derailed when it was discovered that representive Lauren Boebert had apparently taken a photo of Hillary Clinton inside the deposition room and share it , went online . big no,no.
Because under the rules ,there really can’t be unauthorized photographs or video in a closed door deposition.
And Clinton was at times visibly irritated that she even had to be there.
as there had been very little evidence that she was in fact connected in any way with Epstein.
And after it was over , Clinton spoke with reporters outside referenced the fact that was originally proposed as an open public hearing was changed to a deposition behind closed doors.
Now, you’ll hear the committee ultimately say , ” that’s how they do it, these are the rules, how it happens , you do a private deposition ,then a public hearing .
But anyway…
Now , thets talk about Bill Clinton, so , the following day , friday, it was the former president’s turn to face questioning.
Pretty historic to have a former president sitting down for a depsosition like this and by the way, this is al under oath.
There are alwayd potential legal consequences if someone’s not telling the truth, we not saying the Clintons weren’t telling the truth, but that’s why it’s so significant.
That’s why it’s matters, that’s why it’s so important.
Now , he did take a moment toward the beginning to kind of chastise the committee for dragging his wife into the frenzy surrounding the Epstein files .
And the committee members grilled the former President about his connection to Jeffrey Epstein and why Clinton was in gsvy associated with him.
Althoug it is important to point out, Clinton apparently flew with Epstein on his privat jet in the early 2000s.
So this is before Epstein was convicted in Florida for soliciting prostitution, including that of a minor.
And we want to talk about a moment that has gone very viral .
so, Cliton , who’s going to turn 80 this year, was given a few photographs from the Epstein files to look at , and he seems kind of to have taken a look at them with a grin.
Now, some online have said it looks like he’s reminiscing , we can’t say that fot sure, but just take a look at this, and also look at his lawyer too.
