Bill Clinton will be the first former president to testify in a congressional investigation into the Epstein case.
Hillary Clinton's turn was on Thursday, and she confirmed that she had not met Jeffrey Epstein. Her husband, Bill Clinton, will not be able to say the same, since she admitted to having madeseveral trips on Epstein's private plane in the early 2000s, but denying that she knew about the crimes of the pedophile.
Bill and Hillary Clinton's statement was summoned by the chairman of the Lower House Oversight Committee, James Comer, to explain their links to the paedophile who died in prison in 2019.
The statements of the two Democrats will be recorded and the images are expected to be published later.
Hillary Clinton denies meeting Epstein, but admits she was with Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's accomplice sentenced to 20 years in prison, several times.
The Clintons initially refused to testify before Congress, but after threatening to accuse the president of contempt, decided to accept a hearing to explain their relations with Epstein, and Hillary Clinton challenged the Republicans to issue it live.
They believe that the outbreak is part ofa strategy to divert attention from US President Donald Trump's relationship with Epstein.
