RNC Research announced that former President Bill Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee that he believed Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and his wife were on an early flight he took aboard Jeffrey Epstein’s plane.
The testimony draws attention to associations between high-profile political figures and Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. The disclosure is notable due to ongoing public scrutiny of individuals linked to Epstein.
“RNC Research posted a video on X featuring a clip from Clinton’s testimony before the House Oversight Committee. In it, Clinton states that he thinks he had his first trip for the man who is now the Governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker, and his wife, in reference to travels on Epstein’s plane. This disclosure points to associations between high-profile Democrats and the convicted sex offender,” according to RNC Research.
Dan Proft, co-host of Chicago’s Morning Answer, shared a post on X quoting the RNC Research video where Clinton referenced travel with Pritzker and his wife on Epstein’s plane. Proft added that Pritzker has an airtight alibi against any accusations of sexual escapades because of his physical limitations and noted that sometimes there’s not enough money in the world. This comment ties directly to the disclosed Clinton testimony about the association according to Proft.
