Former U.S. President Bill Clinton is set to testify before the House on Friday concerning his connections to the late Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. This testimony comes in the wake of a probe that aims to uncover the extent of Epstein's network and any potential political ramifications. Clinton's appearance is particularly significant as he and his wife, ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, agreed to provide testimony just days before a scheduled House vote on whether to hold them in contempt of Congress for failing to cooperate with previous inquiries.

Previously, Hillary Clinton had testified in front of the House on Thursday, denying any knowledge of Epstein's criminal activities. Her testimony was part of the ongoing investigation into Epstein's extensive network, which has raised numerous questions about high-profile individuals and their potential involvement or awareness of his illicit activities. The fact that both Clintons are testifying reflects the seriousness of the allegations and the scrutiny they are under regarding their acquaintances and possible connections to Epstein.

Bill Clinton's testimony is expected to begin around 6 PM Finnish time, and it will be conducted behind closed doors, similar to the session held by Hillary Clinton. The implications of their testimonies could have significant political consequences, especially considering the ongoing discourse about accountability among public figures and their associations, highlighting the broader societal concerns regarding abuse of power and exploitation.
