JUST IN: Former President Bill Clinton testifies under oath that President Trump was not involved with Jeffrey Epstein But was involved in…
In a historic closed-door deposition before the Republican-led House Oversight Committee, former President Bill Clinton testified under oath about his past acquaintance with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
During more than six hours of questioning on Friday, Clinton repeatedly denied any knowledge of Epstein’s criminal activities, stating he “saw nothing” and “did nothing wrong.” He emphasized that his limited interactions with Epstein ended years before the financier’s crimes became public.
The testimony also touched on President Donald Trump’s relationship with Epstein. According to Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.), Clinton told lawmakers that Trump “never said anything to me to make me think he was involved” with Epstein’s wrongdoing. Comer described Clinton as cooperative and said the comments left Republicans confident that no further deposition of the current president was necessary regarding the matter.
Democrats on the committee offered a different interpretation, arguing that Clinton’s account—including references to conversations about Trump’s past social ties to Epstein—raised additional questions and set a precedent for Trump to testify under oath.
Neither Clinton nor Trump has been accused of misconduct in connection with Epstein’s crimes. Clinton has long maintained he flew on Epstein’s plane several times in the early 2000s for international travel, always with Secret Service protection, but cut contact well before Epstein’s 2019 arrest.
The deposition marked the first time a former U.S. president was compelled to testify under congressional subpoena. Clinton appeared one day after his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, gave her own testimony, in which she stated she had no association with Epstein.
Following the session, Clinton released a video statement reiterating his denial of wrongdoing and calling for justice and healing for Epstein’s victims.
The bipartisan panel continues its probe into Epstein’s network, though interpretations of Friday’s testimony remain sharply divided along party lines.
