US Top News and Analysis | Epstein files: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick set for May 6 interview by House Oversight
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has been scheduled to appear on May 6 before the House Oversight Committee for an interview about notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Lutnick, during testimony on Feb. 10 to the Senate Appropriations Committee, said that he and his family had lunch with Epstein in December 2012 on Epstein's private Caribbean island. Former President Bill Clinton testified to the committee about Epstein on Feb. 28, after being subpoenaed.
Lutnick's admission in that Senate testimony came after he had claimed to have cut off contact with Epstein, who was his neighbor in New York, in 2005. But Department of Justice files about Epstein show Lutnick remained in contact with him for years afterward. Former President Bill Clinton testified to the committee about Epstein on Feb. 28, after being subpoenaed. "I saw nothing and I did nothing wrong," Clinton said about the times he spent flying and socializing with Epstein.
At that time, Clinton said, "I had no idea of the crimes Epstein was committing." The Oversight Committee on March 17 issued a subpoena compelling then-Attorney General Pam Bondi to sit for a deposition on Epstein on April 14. President Donald Trump fired Bondi on Thursday. The Oversight panel on March 3 said it had asked seven other people to sit for voluntary interviews about Epstein, including Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Goldman Sachs' top lawyer Kathryn Ruemmler, billionaires Leon Black and Ted Waitt.
