WASHINGTON, United States – Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have agreed to provide testimony before Congress regarding their connections to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The announcement came from Republican Representative James Comer, Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, on Tuesday.
The Clintons, initially defiant of congressional subpoenas, reversed their stance following the House’s move to hold them in contempt. Chairman Comer stated that the Democratic power couple had ‘completely caved,’ agreeing to participate in transcribed and filmed depositions scheduled for this month. Hillary Clinton is set to appear on February 26, followed by Bill Clinton on February 27.
The Epstein scandal, which continues to reverberate through Washington’s corridors of power, implicates numerous high-profile figures from business and politics. Epstein, who died in a federal jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, maintained extensive networks among global elites.
The Justice Department’s recent release of over 3 million documents related to the Epstein investigation has intensified scrutiny, fueling fierce partisan debates. Democrats allege the congressional probe is politically motivated, engineered to target opponents of former President Donald Trump—a longtime Epstein associate who has not been summoned to testify—rather than pursue genuine oversight.
