Clinton Defends Epstein Ties; Trump Admin Bans Anthropic Contracts
/04:20/E1047
Former President Bill Clinton testified today before a Republican-led congressional committee, addressing his historical ties to Jeffrey Epstein. This appearance follows the release of new Department of Justice materials, including photos and emails that clarify the extent of Clinton’s relationship with the late financier. Documents highlight how Ghislaine Maxwell acted as a social matchmaker between Clinton’s team and Epstein, facilitating over two dozen flights on Epstein’s private jet for foundation work. While Clinton maintains he had no knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, the committee is intensifying its scrutiny of powerful figures linked to the case.
Beyond the hearing, the Trump administration has announced the removal of AI company Anthropic from the Pentagon’s supply chain and all government contracts. This move marks a significant shift in the administration's approach to domestic tech partnerships. Additionally, federal authorities face criticism for a social media campaign on the White House X account. The campaign, intended to highlight criminal records of immigrants, reportedly used incorrect photos and exaggerated the felony record of a man named At Chandee. These events highlight a day focused on executive accountability and evolving federal enforcement strategies.
