Hillary Clinton Accuses Trump of Epstein File Cover-Up as Congressional Questioning Nears

The accusation sharpens a dispute over the scope of the Justice Department’s January release.

Overview

  • In a BBC interview on Feb. 16–17, Hillary Clinton alleged President Donald Trump orchestrated a dissimulation of Epstein-related records and urged full publication.
  • The Justice Department says its January release included all remaining materials, but some lawmakers contend internal government notes and emails were withheld.
  • Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton are scheduled for closed-door interviews with a congressional commission on Feb. 26 and 27, and she has called for the sessions to be public.
  • President Trump denies any implication in the affair and says he has been totally exonerated.
  • Coverage of the release reports that the published files name at least six current administration officials, alongside repeated mentions of Bill Clinton without evidence of illegal conduct.
