House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer said on 12 Aug 2025 that former President Bill Clinton is a “prime suspect” in Congress’s investigation into the late financier Jeffrey Epstein’s activities. Comer told reporters he intends to seek Clinton’s deposition and asserted the panel has bipartisan backing to move forward. Comer’s remarks come amid renewed public scrutiny of Epstein’s network after the Justice Department earlier this year released additional flight logs, contact lists and other documents tied to the convicted sex offender. Clinton has acknowledged taking several flights on Epstein’s plane in the early 2000s but has denied any wrongdoing. The former president has not commented on Comer’s latest statement.
