Hillary Clinton Called Her Epstein Hearing Political Theater

Hillary Clinton Called Her Epstein Hearing Political Theater

Author: What A Day February 27, 2026 Duration: 20:40
On Thursday, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified in front of the House Oversight Committee to answer questions during their investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Secretary Clinton said, “I do not recall ever encountering Mr. Epstein,” and referred to the GOP-led committee’s handling of the Epstein files as “partisan political theater.” Following her deposition, she told reporters that Republicans asked her about UFOs and the Pizzagate conspiracy theory. Bart Jansen, White House correspondent for USA Today, laid out what we should expect next in the Epstein investigation. And in headlines, the U.S. and Iran hold more indirect talks over Tehran’s nuclear program, a federal judge rules that the Internal Revenue Service illegally shared confidential taxpayer data with the Department of Homeland Security, and a new Kansas law invalidates driver’s licenses and birth certificates held by some transgender residents.
