Clinton Denies Knowledge Of Epstein Crimes in Historic House Deposition
Former President Bill Clinton testified under subpoena to a House committee, denied knowing Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and denied sexual encounters shown in released photos.
Overview
Bill Clinton testified under subpoena to the House Oversight Committee and said, "I saw nothing, and I did nothing wrong," denying knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes.
The depositions followed the staged release of millions of Department of Justice documents tied to Epstein and came after the Clintons initially resisted subpoenas before relenting under threat of contempt.
Republican Chair James Comer called Clinton's deposition "very productive" and said video and a full transcript will be released, while top Democrat Robert Garcia said Clinton's answers raised additional questions and urged that President Trump be questioned.
The newly released files show the Clintons' names appear hundreds of times; Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's jet several times and traveled with staff more than a dozen times between 2001 and 2004.
Committee members said they will release the deposition record in the coming days and will consider further subpoenas, with Democrats pressing for President Trump to testify, according to lawmakers.
Analysis
Center-leaning sources present an adversarial editorial framing that emphasizes scrutiny of the Clintons. Sources use loaded language (headline “grilled”), foreground Republican claims about flight logs and photos, and amplify Comer’s remarks while placing Democratic pushback later. Direct quotes and denials from the Clintons remain source content, not editorial voice.
