Hillary Clinton testifies in the Epstein case and says she does not remember ever meeting the pedophile.

WashingtonThe '90s are back, at least for the Clintons. In a kind of déjà-vu Pernicious, the Democratic couple finds themselves once again embroiled in a new scandal involving sex, power, money, and questionable conduct in the eyes of the public. Although the Lewinsky affair pales in comparison to the Epstein case, the crisis now engulfing them is significant. Hillary Clinton was the first to be questioned this Thursday by a Republican committee of the House of Representatives in Chappaqua, New York, where the couple resides. Former President Bill Clinton will testify tomorrow. In her appearance, the Democrat asserted that she has no knowledge of Epstein's criminal activities and does not recall ever meeting with him. Although the session is closed to the public, the committee is recording it for later release.

After months of litigating to avoid testifying about their relationship with Epstein, the couple finally relented only after the House of Representatives moved forward with a bipartisan vote to declare them in criminal disobedience to Congress. The Clintons claim the hearing is a Republican plot to harm them.

Hillary Clinton has always maintained she did not know Epstein. Records and photographs documenting the relationship with the pedophile all point to Bill Clinton. The investigation into the pedophile, who died in 2019 in his jail cell before his trial, revealed that the former president traveled on the billionaire's private jet at least 16 times. Bill Clinton also appears in a photograph in a jacuzzi with women and in two other photographs embracing a woman. In one of these, the woman is sitting on his lap. In another, he appears with Epstein.

The former president was also photographed with Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's former partner and accomplice in the child trafficking and sex trafficking ring. Maxwell recently invoked her Fifth Amendment right against testifying before Congress and offered to exonerate Trump in exchange for immunity. Maxwell's testimony could be key to clarifying the relationships between both Trump and Bill Clinton with Epstein.

The quote coincides with the renewed momentum of the Epstein case in the United States after several American media outlets reported that the Justice Department had withheld key documents regarding accusations against Donald Trump of sexually abusing a minor. Among the three million files that the department uploaded to the public database is an FBI index of a series of interviews conducted with a woman who reported in 2019 that she had been sexually assaulted by Trump and Epstein in the past. But three of the four interviews are missing from the vast collection of documents. It is unclear why the department omitted the information. All the emails, photographs, and memos related to the investigation were eventually released by the government, compelled by a transparency law passed by Congress. Trump, who until then had refused to release the files, had to yield to congressional pressure.
