Hillary Clinton comes out swinging after GOP grilled her during marathon Epstein deposition

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton wasted no time criticizing Republicans after she ended a roughly six-hour grilling in the House Oversight Committee’s Jeffrey Epstein probe on Thursday evening.
Clinton told reporters she answered questions «repetitively, literally over and over again» after blasting Republicans for holding a closed-door deposition instead of a public hearing.
She said, however, that she would not testify again if there was a public hearing, telling reporters, «They had a chance to do it in public and I wish they had done it in public. And I think they’re making the wrong decision, avoiding doing it in public.»
«It then got, at the end, quite unusual because I started being asked about UFOs and a series of questions about Pizzagate — one of the most vile, bogus conspiracy theories that was propagated on the internet — that was serving as the basis of a member’s questions to me,» Clinton said.

She also knocked Republican lawmakers for not attending the deposition of former Victoria’s Secret CEO Leslie Wexner in person.
Clinton did save praise for House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., however, «for raising a series of significant questions that I responded to about the nature of the investigation, and the areas that I thought should be explored.»
«So I appreciated that. I want to see the truth come out. So that was a reassuring way to end a very long, repetitive, deposition,» Clinton said.
She also reiterated comments from her opening statement that she did not know Epstein, and said she only knew Ghislaine Maxwell «as an acquaintance.»
When asked why Maxwell was invited to her daughter, Chelsea Clinton’s wedding, however, Clinton said she was a «plus one of someone invited.»
Clinton’s deposition began in the 11 a.m. hour and wrapped in the 5 p.m. hour in her hometown of Chappaqua, New York.
Comer said afterward that Clinton «answered most of our questions» in a «productive» deposition but said Republicans ultimately «weren’t satisfied» with what they gleaned.
«The number of times that she said, ‘I don’t know, you’ll have to ask my husband,’ was more than a dozen,» Comer said.

Former President Bill Clinton is slated to testify behind closed doors on Friday for what Comer said would be an «even longer» deposition.
CLINTONS CAVE: COMER SAYS BILL AND HILLARY TO TESTIFY IN EPSTEIN PROBE
Neither Clinton is implicated in any wrongdoing related to Epstein or Maxwell, but Bill Clinton was known to have a relationship with the late financier and sex trafficker before the federal investigations into his crimes came to light.
Hillary Clinton said that relationship «ended years, several years before, anything about, Epstein’s criminal activities came to light.»
Rep. William Timmons, R-S.C., told Fox News Digital that it was «frustrating» to see her «obstinate and sort of annoyed at the process.»
«She had an excuse for everything. But when you’ve got a pattern of involvement and a pattern of association, the American people deserve answers,» Timmons said.
«Honestly, I tend to find her to be fairly credible, but I mean, all of this is going to culminate tomorrow with President Clinton and he has a lot of really hard questions to answer and I don’t think that the American people are going to like his answers.»
The deposition was tense at times, a tension Clinton alluded to when she accused Republicans of breaking the rules when Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., apparently shared a photo from inside the deposition room with a right-wing influencer.
«We had a bit of a challenge in the beginning because we agreed upon rules based on the fact it was going to be a closed hearing at their demand. And one of the members violated that rule, which was very upsetting because it suggested that they might violate other of our agreements,» Clinton said. «So we had to cease the hearing for a period of time until we could get assurances that no rules would be, broken going forward.»

It’s notable, however, that Democrats also leaked information from inside the room — but did not get any public blowback. A New York Times reporter posted reporting about the deposition on X earlier in the day while citing a «Dem member in the room.»
Bill Clinton’s deposition is also expected to kick off in the 11 a.m. hour on Friday at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center.

Massie-led push to handcuff Trump on Iran gets Jeffries’ backing

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A resolution led by Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif., aimed at curbing President Donald Trump’s war powers in Iran is getting the blessing of the House of Representatives’ top Democrat.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., released a statement alongside other Democratic leaders Thursday announcing that they will force a vote on Massie’s resolution next week.
«As soon as Congress reconvenes next week, we will compel a vote of the full House of Representatives on the bipartisan Khanna-Massie War Powers resolution,» the joint statement read.
«This legislation would require the President to come to Congress to make the case for using military force against Iran. The Iranian regime is brutal and destabilizing, seen most recently in the killing of thousands of protesters. However, undertaking a war of choice in the Middle East, without a full understanding of all the attendant risks to our servicemembers and to escalation, is reckless.»

Jeffries and other top Democrats argued that any military force against Iran would be illegal without approval from Capitol Hill.
«We maintain that any such action would be unconstitutional without consultation with and authorization from Congress. Next week, every Member will have the opportunity to go on the record as to whether they support military action against Iran absent Congressional approval,» they said.
Massie cited Congress’ war powers in the Constitution in unveiling the legislation earlier this month alongside Khanna.

«Congress must vote on war according to our Constitution,» he posted on X. «[Khanna] and I will be forcing that vote to happen in the House as soon as possible. I will vote to put America first, which means voting against more war in the Middle East.»

There are multiple mechanisms for forcing a vote over the will of House leadership. But the quickest route is called a «privileged resolution,» which mandates that a specific piece of legislation is considered by the full chamber within two legislative days of its introduction.
Before a vote on the measure itself, however, House GOP leaders can call for a preliminary vote to «table» the legislation or refer it to the relevant committee, both ways of effectively killing those resolutions.
It’s considered easier for lawmakers in the majority party to vote to kill resolutions on that procedural vote before they have to take a vote on the bill itself.

Privileged resolutions, which are traditionally seldom used, have gained popularity in recent years as Republicans grapple with a razor-thin House majority.
In this case, Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., can only afford one GOP defection if all Democrats vote to proceed with blocking Trump’s war powers.
Because Massie is already likely to vote with the minority party, all remaining Republicans in the chamber must vote in lockstep to block the resolution.

Tour guide arrested after drawing stick figure on 4,000-year-old pyramid

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
An Egyptian tour guide was arrested after allegedly sketching a stick figure onto the side of the 4,000-year-old Pyramid of Unas while leading a group of tourists.
Video of the incident, which circulated widely on social media, shows the man leaning toward a lower section of the pyramid’s outer casing while tourists stand nearby listening. He is then seen attempting to wipe the markings away with his hand, though remnants remain visible in the footage.
In a post on X, Egypt’s Interior Ministry said the guide «damaged an antiquity by drawing on the outer casing of one of the pyramids» while explaining the site to tourists. Although the initial report mentioned the general Giza area.
The ministry said the investigation was launched after the video spread online, prompting an antiquities inspector to file a report with the Saqqara Tourism Police Station identifying the guide. Officials said the markings were later removed by specialists.
