Clinton Testifies on Epstein Ties, Defends Hillary

0:00Hey, it's Corey, with Adelaide News today, your city, your news, every day. Bill Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee denying any knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes during their short association. He said he would have reported Epstein to authorities if he had suspected anything. This hearing exam is the government's handling of the Epstein case. Clinton was subpoenaed after photos from the Epstein file's surface last year, showing him with Epstein and Glein Maxwell, including on Epstein's, Jett, Ann, and Ahata. Records show Epstein visited the White House 17 times during Clinton's presidency and Clinton flew on Epstein's plane at least 27 times. In his opening remarks, Clinton defended his wife Hilary, who testified the day before and called the questioning repetitive and closed to media. He argued she had no connections to Epstein and should not have been summoned. He chairman James Comer highlighted the frequent contacts as key questions for the hearing. This marks the first time a former president has appeared under subpoena before Congress.
