Bill Clinton to testify on Epstein ties in front of House panel on Friday

Former President Bill Clinton will become the first former president to testify under a congressional subpoena on Friday, when he appears in front of the House Oversight Committee as part of its probe into Jeffrey Epstein.The deposition will be given behind closed doors in his hometown of Chappaqua, New York, and comes a day after his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, gave her deposition to the panel in a six-hour-long hearing.
The deposition comes after a contentious negotiation between the Clintons’ attorneys and House Republicans, led by Oversight Committee Chair James Comer who pushed for in-person, recorded depositions rather than written testimony or declarations. 
The Clintons have not been accused of any wrongdoing and Hillary Clinton told reporters after her deposition that she does not believe her husband was aware of Epstein’s crimes during their association. 
Comer said he will release the video and transcript of the depositions as soon as the couple approves it.
