Hillary Clinton used her forced appearance Thursday before a Republican-led panel probing Jeffrey Epstein to go on the offensive by demanding President Donald Trump testify about his own links to the sex offender. Clinton told the congressional committee she had no information about Epstein's crimes, never recalled encountering him, and had never visited his island or flown on his plane, accusing the panel of trying to "protect one public official" -- Trump.
Clinton challenged the panel, saying, “if this committee is serious about learning the truth about Epstein’s trafficking crimes … it would ask [Trump] directly under oath about the tens of thousands of times he shows up in the Epstein files”.
The top Democrat on the committee, Robert Garcia, also called on Trump to testify “to answer the questions that are being asked across this country from survivors”.
