Bill Clinton Questioned About Jeffrey Epstein, Flights and Island

the witnesses who testified in the Epstein cases that Epstein said,

uh, you quote, "Like them young." Why would Epstein say

that about you?

Are you asking his opinion?

I'm-

You're asking him to a- think about why Mr.

Epstein would say something about him-

Correct. Why would, why would Epstein say

that about the president?

So she's asking you to try to be in Mr.

Epstein's mind and guess at what Mr.

Epstein would have thought about-

First of all-

Clinton likes them young, referring to girls.

First of all,

that's not true.

What's not true?

That I have any

interest in underage-

I didn't say underage. I said, I said young.

But it's still not true.

Is an intern young?

Yes.

Okay. And-

At my age, anybody younger than I are young

... did you know Jeffrey Epstein instructed a

witness to deny you were ever on

his island?

He didn't have to, since I was never there.

Mm. Did you ever, uh, travel to Zoro Ranch?

Is that the one in New Mexico?

Yes.

No.

Okay. Have you ever flown on anyone else's

private jet 26 times or more for

overseas trips?

I have flown as many miles on other jets, but never with as many

stops.

How many other people's planes have you used, like Epstein,

26 times or miles, et cetera?

I don't know. I did f- with Steve Bing, who is now deceased,

and probably with four or five others-

Okay

... like this.

So maybe about a half dozen-

Yeah

... billionaires total, so. Um, how many dinners did you have with,

uh, Ghislaine Maxwell or Jeffrey Epstein in attendance?

She's asking to the best of your recollection.

I have no idea.

Okay. Did you ever discuss sexual misconduct

allegations made against you

with Epstein or Maxwell?

Never.

Did Epstein or Maxwell ever offer to help manage or silence women who made sexual

misconduct allegations against you?

No.

Did Epstein or Maxwell ever offer financial support directly

or indirectly to legal

defense funds related to impeachment proceedings or civil actions against you?

Not to my knowledge.

Do you think a young girl massaging a president is unusual?

So are you asking his opinion?

Well, he was massaged by a young woman.

You're asking if that's what J-

I'm asking if he thinks it's unusual that a president, sitting president of the

United States, leader of the free world, that it's unusual-

So I'm sorry

... a young woman would be-

Are you speaking to... Are you talking to the,

the instance of the ma-

Yes

... the-

It's unusual that a woman would be massaging-

... the back massage that occurred while he was not president?

I'm just trying to understand. You said a president of the United States.

Former president.

Thank you. Just trying to make sure we're correctly

timed for it.

You are, are you filibustering?

No, I don't need to.

Okay.

I'm actually trying to make sure that as you-

I think I'm pretty clear. He, he said he had a young-

You said he was a sitting president.

Excuse me, excuse me. Could we just please go one at a time?

Thank you.

You said a sitting president. I want you to be clear so that

when he answers you-

Former sitting president

... the record is clear.

How do you want me to do it? Is it unusual?

Objection calls for-

I have no idea if it's unusual

... objection calls for speculation.

I figured. Do you ever, uh, did you ever think

that all these women around Jeffrey

Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell was odd, unusual, weird, or

creepy?

There weren't all that many around when I was there.

How many would you say is all, not all that many?

I think th- on this big plane that was working long

hours, having two to four people on there, I thought was, uh, as

far as I knew, they were

all helping.

Flight attendants in tank tops and jeans?

Right.

No.

Do you believe you were a victim of a Jeffrey Epstein intel

operation?

Do you think that you might have been, like, caught up in some of what he

was maybe

potentially doing?

Excuse me, uh, uh, Congressman, which question are you asking?

I'm asking if the pre-

Intel operation?

First of all, I don't-

Some type of intel operation. I'm just curious because it's been

speculated on

today and yesterday-

I understand

... that he may have been an intel asset.

Do you, do you think perhaps knowing what we know

now, uh, the

proclivity of it all, that he may have been targeting you as

part of an intel

operation?

I doubt it.

Okay. Um, in 2019 you stated, after he was

arrested, I guess this would be the second time,

you stated you knew nothing of

Epstein's, quote, "terrible crimes" since you only met,

quote, "briefly" on only,

quote, "two occasions." Was this statement false?

Excuse me, uh, uh, Congressman, can you put in the s-

That's not an accurate statement

... the record that state-

Can you please hear us what she said?

Uh, yes. Um, in 2019 as reported by the media,

which-
