Let me start out by saying that I really dislike Hillary Clinton (and most politician on both sides of the aisle). However, I did decide to listen to (and sometimes watch) the first two hours of her deposition, and I have to agree with her opinion, that there was almost no substantive reason to deposition her, while there are dozens of people (including her husband and our current president) who should be questioned. I think if most Americans who were neutral on Hillary Clinton would watch this, she would come up rather favorably. If you are someone that thinks Hillary is the victim of right-wing witch hunts, than there is no better proof of that than in this video. If you think Hillary is a slippery dishonest creature, then you will have to admire how well she answers the questions, appears to be fully cooperative, and manages to cast herself as the victim here.
If I were questioning Clinton, I wouldn't mention the word "Pizzagate". I would ask her about the emails sent to her advisor John Podesta which mentioned "Pizza related maps" or the invitation he received from Marina Abramovich about "spirit cooking" events. If Clinton objected, I would remind her that like that those emails had similar language to Epstein emails (words for food, but used to refer to trafficked children) and that this was all about protecting children. Clinton talked quite extensively about her efforts to protect children and fight trafficking. If she continued to object, I would reminder her that we know of Podesta's email because of Wikileaks and Julian Assange. Hillary allegedly said about Assange "Can't we just drone bomb this guy?" I would ask her if she wanted him drone bombed because he was exposing her piezophile associate.
- With so many of the questions she was asked (especially the softball ones from Democrats) she found a way to frame them to talk about all the great humanitarian work she and Bill had done at the Clinton Global Initiative (e.g. find ways to get pure drinking water to people in poverty, get cheap drugs into Africa for people with AIDS, etc.) By the time she was done speaking, you forgot what the original question was.
- Nancy Mace asked Hillary repeatedly about her husband's sexual philandering and sex crimes, and asked if warranted his deposition. Hillary repeatedly replied "Well, you are going to question him tomorrow!" This went on way to long on Mace's part and helped Hillary look like the victim.
- There were two moments when Hillary got angry. If you view them in context, her anger seems quite legitimate.
- 1) Completely against committee rules, Rep. Lauren Bobert posted and image from the hearing on social media, an image of Hillary sitting in the media room. This was construed as an attempt use the hearing for political purposes. It almost gave Clinton an excuse to withdraw from the deposition, however, Bobert took the image down from the net.
- 2) Nancy Mace asked about Hillary's relationship to Howard Lutnick which opened up the opportunity for Hillary to talk about how that relationship centered around helping the victim's of 9/11 back in 2001. I think Mace couldn't stand these questions all back firing, so she started shouting over Hillary, making Hillary look like, once again, the victim of right wing witch hunts.
- The ultimate moment of idiocy was when Rep. Bobert started questioning Hillary. It was extremely difficult to make sense of some of Bobert's questions and instead of refusing to answer and unintelligible question, Hillary's lawyer tried to help Bobert as if she were a 4-year old and turn her addled statements into an intelligible question.
But then, Bobert had to ask about Pizzagate. There are reasonable questions that one can ask about Pizzagate. There are questions about Pizzagate they we should have an answer to and Hillary might have those answers (but ultimately, it is John Podesta that should). But Bobert didn't ask one of those questions. Instead, she started to ask about a rumor that she (Clinton) and John Podesta were running a child trafficking operation out of the basement Comet Pizza and Ping Pong (no one ever told Bobert that there is no basement in Comet Pizza.) Hillary started laughing wildly, basically derailed Bobert's line of questioning, and claimed her ultimate "I am a victim of the vast right wing conspiracy" victory.
Alas, there was an opportunity to get some real truth out but that didn't happen and will probably never happen thanks to the lunatic ding-bat from Colorado, Lauren Bobert.
Was Bill Clinton ever actually on Little Saint James ("Epstein") Island and was he asked this question during his deposition???
In Hillary's deposition, someone (I think Rep. Lauren Bobert) made a remark in passing that he had been there and Hillary Clinton angrily denied that he had ever been there. There is, however, good evidence to question him about that, and of course, the profoundly moronic Ms. Bobert failed to utilize the opportunity to confront Hillary with that evidence.
Bill Clinton was first reported as having been on the island by Virginia Giuffre Roberts. Then, the New York Post published reports of the flight logs of Epstein's planes, although the records didn't prove that he ever went to the island. At that point, one of Bill Clinton's associates make a statement to the press on Clinton's behalf, stating that yes, Clinton had been on Epstein's planes, but, no, he had never been on the island.
Then, in December 2020, Vanity Fair magazine did an interview with Doug Band, a long time associate of Bill Clinton. Band had started out in the Clinton White House as an unpaid intern and worked himself up into a paid position. When Clinton's presidential term ended and he and Hillary moved to Chappaqua, New York, he took Band with him and made Band his main assistant. If anyone made a phone call to Bill Clinton, if was Doug Band who picked up the phone. After about a decade, they parted ways, and Band was no longer enamored by the Clintons, and had some critical things to say in the interview. Including this:
If anyone watched the Bill Clinton deposition, and was he confronted with this piece of information? If not, it was another epic fail on the part of congress.By the fall of 2011, the rivalry had turned into a war of attrition. Band looked for an advantage anywhere he could find one. The Clintons’ ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell provided one. Band told me he had been trying to push Epstein out of Clinton’s orbit ever since their much-discussed 2002 trip to Africa aboard Epstein’s private 727, dubbed the “Lolita Express.” Band recalled that Epstein had made a bunch of ridiculous claims on the trip, like boasting that he invented the derivatives market. Band said he had no idea about Epstein’s sex crimes back then but got enough bad vibes that he advised Clinton to end the relationship. But Clinton continued to socialize with Epstein and take his money. In 2006 Epstein donated $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation. Clinton made more than two dozen trips on Epstein’s jet around this time, Epstein’s flight logs show. In January 2003, according to Band, Clinton visited Epstein’s private Caribbean island, Little St. James. Band said it was one of the few trips he declined to go on in his time with Clinton. A Clinton spokesperson said the president had never been to the island and provided detailed travelogue entries of the period in question that did not contain a visit.
Chelsea had ties to Epstein and Maxwell, Band said; he showed me a photo of Bill and Chelsea posing with Epstein and Maxwell at the King of Morocco’s wedding. Chelsea remained friends with Maxwell for years after the press revealed Maxwell was a close associate of Epstein’s. For instance, Chelsea invited Maxwell to her 2010 wedding at the Brooke Astor estate in Rhinebeck, New York, after Epstein had pleaded guilty in Florida to procuring sex from a minor.
“Ghislaine had access to yachts and nice homes. Chelsea needed that,” Band told me.
A Clinton family spokesperson said Chelsea was on friendly terms with Maxwell because of a mutual friend (Gateway computer founder Ted Waitt) and only took one yacht trip with Maxwell in 2009: “It wasn’t until 2015 that Chelsea became aware of the horrific allegations against Ghislaine Maxwell and she hopes that all the victims find justice. Chelsea was friendly with her because of Maxwell’s relationship with a dear friend. When that relationship ended, Chelsea’s relationship with her ended as well.”
In late October 2011, Band instructed Bill Clinton’s office to bar Maxwell from all Clintonworld events as a way of driving a wedge between Maxwell and Chelsea. “I knew in telling everyone to stop including Ghislaine that Chelsea and her father would be very angry. It made it harder for them to justify being close to her,” Band said.

Still trying to answer my own question here. I found a transcript here: https://www.rev.com/transcripts/bill...-investigationPosted by Kryztian (here)
Was Bill Clinton ever actually on Little Saint James ("Epstein") Island and was he asked this question during his deposition???
He was indeed asked. Here's the excerpt:
When Clinton answers "No" his body and head and eyes look straight ahead in an unfocused manner. Just a moment before he was quite animated lively. Pretty sure he knew that people would be scrutinizing his body language and facial gestures, so if he was lying, he picked the right pose to hide what he was feeling.Speaker 3 (01:04:06): Okay. Did you ever visit Epstein's Little St. James Island?
William Jefferson Clinton: No.
Speaker 3: We have Virginia Giuffre who has testified seeing you on the island with two young girls.
Did this occur at all?
William Jefferson Clinton: No.
Speaker 3:Okay. Why do you think she would've made that claim?
congresswoman: Objection. Speculation. He can't possibly...
Speaker 3 (a woman, not sure who) shortly thereafter asked a question that assumed he had been on the island
He is then asked the question again, by a Speaker who is clearly more sympathetic to Clinton:Speaker 3: Okay. In Epstein's 2016 deposition unsealed in the TOJ files, he refused to answer if you were accompanied by two young women who are approximately 18 years old on the island. Were any such women potentially underage with you? I know you've stated that you were not there, but did you have any interaction with the set of people?
congresswoman:Objection to the foundation of the question. He's already stated he was not on the island. You're now asking about a claim of the Fifth Amendment by Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 3: Okay. Would the staff be able...
Jack Emmer: If the witness doesn't know, the witness is welcome to say he doesn't know.
Cheryl Mills: No, but he actually answered the question. He answered questions that wasn't on the island, so then she was asked.
No lawyers objected to the repeat of that question, but they did object sorely to a question that assumed, but didn't explicitly say, he was on the island.Speaker 4: Have you ever, at any point, visited Jeffrey Epstein's former estate on Little Saint James island in the US Virgin Islands?
William Jefferson Clinton: No.
Near the end of the deposition, there is one more question about the island:
It is interesting to note that there was a question about the magazine Vanity Fair:Congresswoman Nancy Mace (03:54:11): Did you know Jeffrey Epstein instructed a witness to deny you were ever on his island?
William Jefferson Clinton: He didn't have to, since I was never there.
It is also interesting to note, the name "Doug Band", Clinton's assistant for the decade after he left the White House, came up 17 times during the deposition.Jack Emmer (04:18:47): And this is email from Virginia Giuffre, an Epstein victim, that alleged that you walked into Vanity Fair and threatened them not to write sex trafficking articles about your good friend, Jeffrey Epstein. Mr. President, is this true?
William Jefferson Clinton: No. No. Not no, hell no. Not close no.
Numerous questionings if he was on the island. Vanity Fair mentioned. Doug Band mentioned 17 times. And yet ... not one of these congress people who are supposed to protect the interests of the American people brought up the most damning piece of evidence of all, this statement in Vanity Fair magazine from 2020:
I also saw an interview with Doug Band about 5 years ago, when he himself said that Bill Clinton did travel to Epstein Island. I have not been able to find the Youtube video, perhaps it has been scrubbed.In January 2003, according to Band, Clinton visited Epstein’s private Caribbean island, Little St. James.
There were at least 17 congress members present at the deposition. Each of them has a large staff, and several on the staff had to be researching Bill Clinton's relation to Epstein, combing through an insufferable number of documents. How could they miss an article in Vanity Fair? How could they miss one of the best pieces of evidence???
Virginia Giuffre Roberts was just an ordinary girl from Florida. She lived on the other side of the world. Her testimony carries only so much weight. But Doug Band was a Washington D.C. insider, a trusted ally of Clinton. It would be a lot harder for Bill Clinton to imply that Band is a liar. And if Clinton implied he was lying, he could respond, unlike Virginia Giuffre, who is now dead, much to Bill Clinton's good fortune.
It just isn't possible that if there was a good faith effort to investigate Clinton, that Doug Band's statements didn't come up in a four hour deposition. In the same way, it is isn't possible that in a four hour deposition of Hillary Clinton, that "Pizzagate" could be mentioned without bringing up John Podesta's "pizza related map" and "spirit cooking" emails.
These depositions were an utter sham.![]()
I watched Filthy rich - Netflix docuseries on Epstein from 2020.
This tech guy Steve Scully, who worked for Epsten 1995-2005 said he saw Bill Clinton on porch of his villa on Little St James.
He obviousely doesn't wan't to come forrward now. He is probably being threatened.
Is every mind connected to form a peer to peer network that creates the illusion of a shared reality, making the appearance of material reality a simulation created through shared beliefs?
Thanks for that. So we now have three people who have made statements that William Jefferson Clinton was on Little Saint James Island:Posted by Isserley (here)

- Virginia Giuffre Roberts, sex crime victim
- Douglas Band, Clinton's assistant for 10 years
- Steve Scully, tech worker on Little St. James Island
Interesting that of the above, only one of them is dead, and she is the only one Congress people mentioned as a witness to Clinton having been on the island.
I am not holding my breath, but I imagine more could come forward.
