A palpable tension filled the room as Hillary Clinton faced questioning regarding Jeffrey Epstein, a moment marking the first time she’d been compelled to answer direct inquiries under oath.
The proceedings abruptly ground to a halt when a photograph of Clinton, captured mid-testimony, surfaced online, quickly disseminated by conservative podcast host Benny Johnson.
Congresswoman Lauren Boebert was identified as the source of the image, igniting immediate controversy and accusations of a deliberate breach of protocol.
Visibly agitated, Clinton left the deposition chamber, returning moments later to confront Chairman Comer in a heated exchange, according to reports.
Emerging from the session, Clinton addressed the media in an impromptu press conference, her voice laced with frustration and indignation.
“I did not know Jeffrey Epstein! I never went to his island. I never went to his home. I never went to his offices,” she declared, vehemently denying any connection to the convicted sex offender.
She accused Boebert of violating established rules by leaking the photograph, framing the action as a calculated attempt to disrupt the proceedings and undermine her testimony.
