A spokesperson for Bill Clinton accused the White House late on Friday of using him as a scapegoat after pictures of the former president with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as with a young woman in a pool, were included as part of congressionally ordered release of government files.

“The White House hasn’t been hiding these files for months only to dump them late on a Friday to protect Bill Clinton,” the spokesperson said in a statement on X.

“This is about shielding themselves from what comes next, or from what they’ll try and hide forever. So they can release as many grainy 20-plus-year-old photos as they want, but this isn’t about Bill Clinton. Never has, never will be,” the statement added.

    He didn’t, actually. The lawyers very clearly defined in that court “sexual relations” as P in V. Clinton, being a lawyer, saw the ability to drop that line, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman” as a legal win. And it was.

    The prosecution wasn’t trying to win in that court. They were trying to destroy his PR.

      I remember a con just about having an aneurysm over Clinton “getting away” with…a BJ. Every time it came up. Well into the 2000s.

      The cons all spent the better part of a decade trying to “get” Bill and/or Hillary on something and thought they had a slam dunk on the stain on a dress. And then the technical aspect of “lying under oath”.

      I ask these types what he really did that was truly illegal (aside from the supposed “lying under oath”) since adultery is not illegal. One of these guys explodes with: “BUT IT SHOULD BE!”

      Dude is already reddish-purple with rage, but I asked him what he thought about ol’ Newt doing the same thing: Reaction: What are you even talking about? (I calmly explain Newt was cheating on his wife while sermonizing about Clinton) Practically popping a blood vessel: SO WHAT? WHO CARES?!!! I’M TALKING ABOUT CLINTON!
