Eggers comments on Bill Clinton's testimony on Jeffrey Epstein ties


Commenting on former President Bill Clinton’s testimony to the congressional probe on Jeffrey Epstein, Eric Eggers of the Government Accountability Institute saw some familiar moves.

“Producing the [documentary] film “Clinton Cash” taught me that Bill and Hillary Clinton will take money from literally anyone if it advances their personal and private agenda,” Eggers said recently. “We’re talking the sketchiest corners of the earth. And by the way, documents have shown that Ghislaine Maxwell bragged about helping to launch the Clinton Global Initiative and the Clinton Foundation.”

Eggers has been involved in investigating the Clintons since 2015, when he helped research Peter Schweizer’s bestselling book, Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich. He produced a documentary film, also called “Clinton Cash,” that same year.

Speaking with Carl Higbie of Newsmax, Eggers said,“So, you add up their penchant for taking money, their willingness to lie, and Bill’s very well-documented problem with inappropriate relationships with women, and I think there’s plenty to see,” Eggers replies to Higbie’s question. “No one believes that Bill Clinton did nothing.”

Higbie notes that at one point during Bill Clinton’s testimony to the congressional investigations committee that is looking into the Epstein case, they asked him whether Epstein was an intelligence asset, and did Clinton know about that?

Well, it depends, Karl, on what the definition of ‘asset’ and ‘no’ is,” Eggers quipped.

I think that what this hearing will do is continue to pin down what exactly Jeffrey Epstein was able to do,” he continued. After Florida had begun legal proceedings against Epstein, he moved to New York, where he had to register as a sex offender. “Yet still, somehow, he gets to party and socialize with the elites in Manhattan for the next ten plus years, including the Clintons,” Eggers notes. “I don’t really understand what status or connections Epstein had that allowed him to move in these elite social circles, but clearly he had the goods on a number of people.”
