"Republicans were there to ask the former first family about Bill Clinton's relationship with Epstein, including his four trips on Epstein's private jet in the early 2000s prior to his conviction for soliciting a minor, as well as photos of Bill Clinton in the Epstein files. Bill Clinton's testimony scheduled for Friday would be the first time a former president has been compelled by subpoena to testify against his will in a Congressional investigation."
"Around 12:45 p.m., Clinton advisor Nick Merrill told reporters outside the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center where the deposition was being held that the interview would be paused because of Boebert's "unauthorized" photo. Testimony later resumed."
The House Oversight Committee interviewed Bill and Hillary Clinton near their Chappaqua home regarding their connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Republicans focused on Bill Clinton's four trips on Epstein's private jet in the early 2000s and photos of him in Epstein files. Hillary Clinton stated she never met Epstein and was unaware of his criminal activities. During the deposition, Rep. Lauren Boebert sent an unauthorized photo of Hillary Clinton to conservative influencer Benny Johnson, who posted it on social media. This breach temporarily halted proceedings. Bill Clinton's testimony was scheduled for the following day, marking the first time a former president would be compelled by subpoena to testify against his will in a Congressional investigation.
