Hillary Clinton criticizes UFO, Pizzagate questions from GOP during Epstein deposition

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton criticized unusual questions from House Republicans about UFOs and the 'Pizzagate' conspiracy during her deposition before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Thursday, which was part of the committee's investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Clinton described the questioning as becoming 'quite unusual' at the end of her deposition, indicating a shift from substantive inquiry to what she perceived as politically motivated conspiracy theories. The deposition took place as part of the House Oversight Committee's investigation into Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died by suicide in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. During her testimony, Clinton reportedly fielded questions about extraterrestrial phenomena and the debunked 'Pizzagate' conspiracy theory, which falsely alleged that a Washington, D.C. pizzeria was the center of a child sex ring involving high-ranking Democrats. The former Secretary of State expressed frustration with what she characterized as politically motivated inquiries that deviated from the legitimate purpose of the investigation into Epstein's crimes, reflecting ongoing tensions between Democrats and Republicans on congressional oversight activities.
