Hillary Clinton, the former US secretary of state will appear before an oversight panel in the House on Thursday. Hearing is part of an overall congressional review.

Clinton denies claims of contact with Epstein
Hillary Clinton claims she has never spoken to Epstein or met him. In public, she has made this claim. She is also in favor of the release of all investigation files.
In a recent Berlin interview, she criticised the investigation. She claimed that Republican legislators wanted to divert attention away from political opponents. Maxwell was at Chelsea Clinton’s 2010 wedding in New York.
Bill Clinton addresses past ties
Bill Clinton acknowledges that he knew Epstein. He claims he broke off the relationship about 20 years ago.
He denies all wrongdoing. The former president maintains that Epstein was not aware of his criminal activities.
The Lawmakers stress Accountability
James Comer is the chairman of the House Oversight Committee. The request for testimony, he says, is a result of a bipartisan initiative. The couple argued the summons was a result of political motivations.
Bill Clinton is listed as one of many prominent public figures who are connected with Epstein. These documents provide a detailed overview of Epstein’s extensive social network. The inclusion of these files is not evidence that criminal activity has occurred.
After the session on Thursday, both sides plan to meet with journalists.
