CHAPPAQUA, NY \u2014 Former President Bill Clinton\u00a0denied having sex with a mystery woman photographed with him in a hot tub<\/a>\u00a0as part of the Jeffrey Epstein files release and insisted he did \u201cnothing wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

During his deposition before the House Oversight Committee on Friday, Clinton was pressed on the\u00a0racy photo<\/a>\u00a0where he was snapped reclining nearly naked in a hot tub with an unidentified woman at his waist.<\/p>\n

Clinton denied knowing who the woman was and told lawmakers under oath he did not have sexual relations with her, according to a source familiar with his testimony.<\/p>\n

The photos were one of the many topics lawmakers pressed Clinton on during his roughtly six-hour deposition at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center<\/a>, where the former president was asked about his relationship with the dead pedophile, his travel on Epstein\u2019s plane<\/a>, and about conversations he had with President Trump on Epstein.<\/p>\n

Clinton testified Trump never said anything that made Clinton think he was close with Epstein, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know there\u2019s a lot of curiosity about President Trump. I thought that was an interesting thing that President Clinton said,\u201d Comer told reporters in New York.<\/p>\n

But Democrats on the panel disagreed with Comer\u2019s characterization.<\/p>\n

Rep. Max Frost (D-Texas), a member of the committee who was in the deposition, wrote on social media that Clinton described how\u00a0\u201cTrump told him that he had a falling out with Epstein due to a land dispute.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his closed-door testimony,\u00a0Clinton maintained that his contact with Epstein ended before the late financier was charged with sex crimes. Clinton told the lawmakers he did nothing wrong.<\/p>\n

The pictures were one of the biggest topics of interest for Republican lawmakers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other controversial photos showed Clinton swimming in a pool with Ghislaine Maxwell<\/a> and a woman with her face blacked out to conceal her identity. In another, Clinton seated with a woman on his lap, her face blacked out. The location is unclear.<\/p>\n

In his opening statement, a defiant Clinton claimed the photos don\u2019t change the fact that he did \u201cnothing wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw nothing, and I did nothing wrong,\u201d his statement read. \u201cEven with 20\/20 hindsight, I saw nothing that gave me pause.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clinton said he \u201cnever witnessed\u201d any crimes and claimed he would never\u00a0\u201chave flown on his plane if I had any inkling of what he was doing\u2014I would have turned him in myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hillary Clinton was asked about the photos during her deposition on Thursday. Rep. Nancy Mace<\/a> (R-S.C.) charged that the former secretary of state became \u201cunhinged\u201d when she inquired about the pictures.<\/p>\n

Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill took to social media to defend Hillary Clinton, saying Mace \u201cmade it up.\u201d<\/p>\n

The American people will see the truth of both exchanges soon enough. Comer vowed to release videos of both depositions as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

After Bill Clinton\u2019s deposition ended, the Republicans on the panel praised him for answering every question and for being so forthcoming with them.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe did respond to every single question even as his attorneys told him to shut up, he kept going,\u201d Mace said, thanking him for being so forthcoming.<\/p>\n

It was a stark contrast to Hillary Clinton\u2019s sitdown on Thursday, which was paused briefly after Rep. Lauren Boebert<\/a> (R-Colo.) sent a photo of Clinton testifying to conservative influencer Benny Johnson to post online, causing outrage from Democrats and Clinton\u2019s team.<\/p>\n

And the former secretary of state came out after her deposition to blast Republicans to the waiting reporters, accusing them of \u201cpartisan political theater.\u201d In contrast, Bill Clinton made no public statement, simply leaving in his SUV when his deposition was over.<\/p>\n

When asked why Bill Clinton\u2019s deposition went so well compared to his wife\u2019s, Comer chuckled.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody knows President Clinton. He\u2019s got southern people skills and is a charming individual,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CHAPPAQUA, NY \u2014 Former President Bill Clinton\u00a0denied having sex with a mystery woman photographed with him in a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":148045,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[10049,22635,6769,9,11,10,87,58],"class_list":["post-148044","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-bill-clinton","tag-house-oversight-committee","tag-jeffrey-epstein","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-politics","tag-us-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148044","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148044"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148044\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148045"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148044"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=148044"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=148044"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
