Former US President Bill Clinton alongside Jeffrey Epstein. Reuters One day after Hillary Clinton testified in front of US deputies about the Epstein case, her husband, former president Bill Clinton, will be questioned by parliamentarians this Friday (27). 📱Download the g1 app to see news in real time and for free The closed-door testimony in Chappaqua, New York, will mark the first time that a former president will be forced to testify before Congress. On Thursday, the former Secretary of State stated that she is certain that Bill Clinton knows nothing about Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes. The Clintons were supposed to appear before the commission in 2025, but scheduling conflicts postponed the testimonies date. In the statement, she said she had no information about Epstein’s criminal activities and called on lawmakers to question President Donald Trump about the disgraced financier under oath. After testifying about the sex scandal involving the billionaire, Hillary responded “yes” when asked if she was “100% sure that Bill Clinton knows nothing about Epstein’s crimes.” Still in the statements after her speeches, the former Secretary of State stated that the testimony included “unusual questions about ‘UFOs’ and ‘Pizzagate'”. She also stated that she never met the billionaire. She testified after being subpoenaed by the House Oversight and Government Reform committee. The commission has a Republican majority, Trump’s party, which tries to associate the Epstein scandal with Democratic figures. In January of this year, the couple released a letter denouncing persecution by the chairman of the committee, Republican Representative James Comer. They were even the target of a contempt report for refusing to testify, which could have led to legal consequences. New Files on Jeffrey Epstein Expose Names, Photos and Pressure Former Prince Andrew Hillary does not appear in Epstein’s files, and her spokespeople claim her summons is a political maneuver. Bill Clinton appears in images alongside Epstein, even taking private flights alongside the financier — there are no formal charges against him, however. Democrats x Republicans The Clinton couple and Democrats accuse Republicans of trying to divert attention from the close relationships between Epstein and current US President Donald Trump. The Republican is mentioned several times in the case files and also appears in photos with the millionaire. Files revealed at the end of last year show an email sent by Epstein to Wolff in January 2019. In the message, the millionaire says that Trump “knew” about the “girls”. Bill’s spokesperson stated that the former president severed ties with Epstein long before the crimes revisited. “They can release as many photos from over 20 years ago as they want, but this isn’t about Bill Clinton,” spokesperson Angel Ureña said at the time.
