Historic Testimony: Clintons to Face House Probe on Epstein Ties

The Clintons have agreed to testify in a House investigation regarding their connections with Jeffrey Epstein, following threats of a contempt of Congress vote. This marks the first instance where a former president is compelled to testify, amid contentious negotiations with House Republicans.

Bill and Hillary Clinton have agreed to testify in a House investigation into their connections with the controversial financier Jeffrey Epstein, following threats of a contempt of Congress vote against them. This development follows intense negotiations with House Republicans.

Hillary Clinton is scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee on February 26, with Bill Clinton to follow on February 27. This arrangement marks a historic moment as it's the first time a former president has been compelled to testify before Congress.

The House investigation is part of a broader effort to understand Epstein's relationships with high-profile figures. House Republicans, supported by some Democrats, pressed charges of criminal contempt until the Clintons agreed to cooperate, leading to this unprecedented agreement.
