Bill Clinton Went to Jeffrey Epstein's Island With 2 'Young Girls', Virginia Giuffre Says
Source: Newsweek
In recently unsealed court documents involving dead child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, a woman named Virginia Giuffre, who publicly accused Epstein of sex trafficking, said that she once saw former Democratic President Bill Clinton on Epstein's island with "two young girls" from New York. In the questioning by lawyer Jack Scarola, Guiffre was asked, "Do you have any recollection of Jeffrey Epstein's specifically telling you that 'Bill Clinton owes me favors?'" "Yes, I do," Guiffre answered. "It was a laugh though. He would laugh it off. You know, I remember asking Jeffrey what's Bill Clinton doing here [on Epstein's island] kind of thing, and he laughed it off and said well he owes me favors." "He never told me what favors they were," Guiffre continued. "I never knew. I didn't know if he was serious. It was just a joke... He told me a long time ago that everyone owes him favors. They're all in each other's pockets." Read more: https://www.newsweek.com/bill-clinton-went-jeffrey-epsteins-island-2-young-girls-virginia-giuffre-says-1521845 So disappointed if true.

There was no mention that she couldn't come because of whatever and sent her love. But Bill was so good. He stayed for the entire service afaik and didn't duck out early.

115. like I would believe her
At this point she will say anything to save her hide. Even lie. I will bet if you press her for specifics, like when and where she will suddenly get real vague. She will not pin it down, because, Mr. Clinton's whereabouts are well tracked. IF she gets caught lying before her case she will have a huge problem in court.
This is an attempt to spread FUD on BC to distract from Trump's well documented pedoparties with EPstein |

I’ll reserve my opinion until I do.
Why would it come out now? Spoilers? As much as I loved Bill, I don’t think it is out of the realm of possibility. I just thought Bill was smarter than, say, Prince Andrew. Protecting his reputation a bit better. |

63. You have read the transcript? Even if Maxwell said it it's still a rumor.
If it takes pictures to prove police brutality, then give us real proof.
I’m not going to hang a beloved Democrat on the word of a sex trafficker. I have seen one picture of Bill not anywhere near Maxwell. He’s not even looking at her let alone shaking her hand. If trump had ANYTHING on Bill Clinton-it would be plastered everywhere three years ago. Or when the Epstein shit hit the fan. I have said this is in the realm of possibility But never on the “word” of Maxwell. |

168. Giuffre gave no details, other than to say she saw him and there were 2 young females there, too.
She didn't say what they were doing -- e.g., they could have been eating dinner or walking around outside, and there could have been other people there, too.
She says virtually nothing specific, but some people want to read much more into it. |

4. That isn't what it says. It doesn't say he traveled there with two young girls.
It says she saw him there with two young girls, and it doesn't say where she saw him there or what he was doing.
And no woman has ever publicly accused Clinton in connection with Epstein. |

10. Exactly! The Island has a huge house and three guest cottages. At any time there probably were....
....dozens of people on the island.
I'm really tired of this stuff being insinuated about Clinton for decades. He did some bad things (although not illegal things), and he apologized for it and atoned for it. As far as we know, he's done NOTHING since the mid-1990s, 25-years ago. |

25. Clinton says he was never on the island
So it's either a complete fabrication on her part or word games don't matter. "I was there, but did not see or participate in anything untoward" is not on the table.

35. There is at least one other person who has said he saw BC on the Island
This is a red line kind of thing.
I have no time for 99.5% of the republican bullshit with him, but there is lot of information out there that he was at least cozy with Epstein. Tact here is let the facts come in and if he did anything with young girls let him hang. |

68. I'm not sure that two is enough in this case
She was reportedly 16 when she was on the island. That would put the supposed event in the middle of Clinton's second term and after the Lewinsky scandal.
How does a sitting president disappear to a private island without something showing up in official logs? |

111. There just is a lot of factors that give me pause with him on this
I am not saying that there is drop dead proof.
But, my impression is that he was seen by Scully after he was POTUS. https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/jeffrey-epstein-filthy-rich-netflix-documentary-1006535/ Flight logs have him on Epstein's plane dozens of times. Again, I like him and he was a darn fine President, but his decision making in regard to women is bad enough and there is enough information out there he was cozy with Epstein, and he is not stupid or naive about people. WTH would he run around with this puke bag? To me he is just as likely as 45 to have done the dirt here, and I am not inclined to try to defend him on this cause again, Bill ain't stupid. |

96. Yes, he has admitted that he flew on Epstein's plane for Clinton Foundation stuff,
But none of the flight logs show him going to the Little St. James island AFAIK.
There would really have to be some corroborating evidence that he'd been to the island and done something illegal there for this to amount to anything. But if there is such evidence, I agree, let him hang |

183. Rupert Murdoch's NY Post is a right wing source
and Donald Trump's favorite newspaper.
![]() ****************************************************************************************************** And what secondary source does the the NY Post cite? Why The Sun of course, another Murdoch-owned right wing rag: ![]() ******************************************************************************************************* And what exactly does primary source IT Guy have to say? "You tell yourself that you didn't know for sure and you never really saw anything, but that's all just rationalization."
I wonder why the hard hitting journalists at The Sun and Netflix didn't question IT Guy more closely about the absent secret service detail. There were no other guests around at the time, [IT Guy] claims.
The right wing continues to spin its tales in Trump's service despite the fact that even Fox News was forced to admit in 2016 that their FOIA requests returned plane logs and secret service records that contradicted the allegation. Virginia Roberts, 32, who claims she was pimped out by Epstein at age 15, has previously claimed she saw Clinton at Epstein’s getaway in 2002, but logs do not show Clinton aboard any flights to St. Thomas, the nearest airport capable of accommodating Epstein's plane.
and In response to a separate FOIA request from FoxNews.com, the U.S. Secret Service said it has no records showing agents were ever on the island with Clinton.
Isn't it interesting that the same debunked, distracting, and divisive conspiracy theory that was trotted out in 2016 is rearing its head again in 2020? Whose interest does that serve? Cui bono? ![]() |

184. Here's what James Patterson (who wrote the book that led to the Netflix docuseries) had to say
RS: Did you ever speak to Bill Clinton directly about Epstein?
JP: Sure. RS: What did he say? JP: He knew him, he didn’t consider him to be a friend. I mean, you’re running a foundation. You’re doing a lot of good things, and somebody says, “we can get you a plane,” for example, the plane that went to Africa that Epstein supplied on at least one of the trips. And that’s when Clinton and Bush were working on trying to help the situation with AIDS in Africa. Nobody does like, oh, let’s do a pleasure trip and have a fun time, we’re all gonna go to Africa, you know. Even there, when you get into this thing about there were 20 trips [Fox News has reported that Clinton flew 26 times on Epstein’s private plane], whatever the hell. It was more that there was one trip to Africa and there were, like, ten stops on that one trip. and RS: The series heavily implies that Clinton is lying at least about the fact that he visited him on Little St. James.
JP: Well what does that mean, heavily implied? They interviewed one person who, I don’t know what to make of him. We uncovered nothing on Clinton. And had there been anything, I would’ve put it in the book. I don’t know what to make of that one fellow. [Patterson is referring to a former Epstein employee and IT worker on the island, who alleges he saw Clinton there; Virginia Giuffre, an Epstein accuser, also reports having seen him on the island.] I don’t know what to make of what he had to say. I do know that my experience is that Clinton has never traveled without Secret Service. If it is accurate, then it should be in the Secret Service logs. |

RS: You’re obviously a collaborator of Clinton’s. [Patterson and Clinton wrote a novel together and are working on a second book.] Did you speak to him about the allegations in the series?
JP: I had done the book on an Epstein before he and I worked on a novel. So we were not at that stage. We weren’t friendly here, hadn’t worked together. We found nothing. And we talked to some people that had piloted planes. We found nothing on him. Zero. We found nothing on him, we found nothing on Trump, we found nothing on Dershowitz. https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/jeffrey-epstein-james-patterson-filthy-rich-netflix-doc-1020440/ |

196. Yes, when Patterson was writing his Epstein book, he wasn't yet friendly with Bill Clinton.
That shows that James Patterson had no personal motive to go light on Clinton or omit facts.
And after his Epstein research and book publication, Patterson chose to collaborate with Bill Clinton on a book. And now Patterson is collaborating with him on a second book. Your additional facts support Patterson having been objective about Bill Clinton in his Epstein exposé ("We uncovered nothing on Clinton. And had there been anything, I would’ve put it in the book." ), and Patterson's later and current willingness to work closely not once, but twice with Bill Clinton attests to what Patterson thinks of the allegations. Thank you for citing additional evidence in support of Bill Clinton. I think that's what is called an own goal. ![]() |

I suspect the next line was "Well, he's powerful and probably got them to lie about it and/or delete the records." There are people who absolutely want this to be true (both from the right and left), and even if there was undeniable exculpating evidence, they will still find something else to latch on to. It's goes the other way too. There could be absolute proof he is guilty of being a super creep, and some will still deny it.

Chances are that there are many more powerful men that indulged in Epstein’s services but may not be named because they weren’t recognizable to the young girls because they weren’t as high profiles as Clinton, Trump or the Prince and many were too smart to have photos taken of them with the young girls.

I do know that my experience is that Clinton has never traveled without Secret Service. If it is accurate, then it should be in the Secret Service logs. ***************************************************************************************************** Even Fox, which was trying to shill the story back in 2016, had to admit defeat after their FOIA requests returned plane logs and secret service records that contradicted the allegation. Virginia Roberts, 32, who claims she was pimped out by Epstein at age 15, has previously claimed she saw Clinton at Epstein’s getaway in 2002, but logs do not show Clinton aboard any flights to St. Thomas, the nearest airport capable of accommodating Epstein's plane.
and In response to a separate FOIA request from FoxNews.com, the U.S. Secret Service said it has no records showing agents were ever on the island with Clinton.

Yet the entire group of Epstein’s rich and powerful customers have influence over the entire justice system. I suspect that there will be many more “suicides” than there will be convictions. Remember the DC Madam?

was a creep. Sorry, I am sure that will upset some folks, but it is true. He may not have been as big a creep as W., or Trump, but still a creep none the less. If the Lewinsky scandal happened today, he would not have survived the scandal.
Also, for someone who was supposedly a savvy politician, he didn't have the sense to not hang around creeps like Epstein and Trump. |

112. Are we mitigating his unethical behavior
and adultery by saying that because some of the women engaged in consensual sex with him, it wasn't all that bad? Are we going to overlook the difference in power dynamic?
Certainly, people's sex lives are their own business, but cheating on your wife is cheating on your wife. Also, how many women who might have had unwanted advances from him, taken one look at what happened to Lewinsky and took a pass on going public? Now we learn that his sexual appetite might have been even more unsavory, and we have folk coming out to defend him and possibly begin victim blaming. I am willing to afford him the benefit of a doubt about his conduct vis-a-vis teenage girls, but not the fact that he FREQUENTLY hung out with Epstein. He flew on the mans plane how often? How many times do you have to see a 40-something man in the company of teenage girls not his daughter before you ask questions? |

130. No we are not. He should own his shame and the best speech writer
...in the country can’t write an apology that could give his victims peace. Especially a man that has a daughter and now a grand daughter that I wonder if he would be protective of in the event that they may be abused. Even the consensual sex with younger women should give him pause and I certainly don’t condone any of his actions. But I am a realist and see the truth in matters of people with power and privilege. Clinton is singled out and public ally scrutinized because of his position in society, and he deserves it, but he will also likely not face any criminal charges because of that same position in society, and I don’t like it any more than you do.

131. He took 6 trips on Epstein's plane, 26 flights total because some of the trips had multiple stops.
No evidence that he went to Little St. James Island.
Feb. 9, 2002 — Clinton hopped a flight from Miami to Westchester, New York, where he lives. March 19, 2002 — Clinton was listed as flying from New York to London and then returning two days later. May 22, 2002 — Clinton flew from Japan to Hong Kong. The next day he flew to Singapore (by way of Shenzhen, China), where he gave a speech. On May 25, he left for Brunei, by way of Bangkok. July 13, 2002 — He attended a wedding in Morocco and then hopped a flight to New York, stopping in the Azores. Sept. 21, 2002 — Clinton left for a nine-day trip to Africa with actors Kevin Spacey and Chris Tucker, visiting Ghana, Nigeria, Rwanda, Mozambique and South Africa. While there, he worked on HIV and AIDS prevention projects, democratization, and economic development. He finished the trip in England, where he addressed the Labour Party during its annual conference. In a 2002 profile of Epstein, Clinton is quoted as saying through a spokesman, “Jeffrey is both a highly successful financier and a committed philanthropist with a keen sense of global markets and an in-depth knowledge of twenty-first-century science. I especially appreciated his insights and generosity during the recent trip to Africa to work on democratization, empowering the poor, citizen service, and combating HIV/AIDS.” According to the flight records, this was the longest trip Clinton took on Epstein’s plane, and it accounted for 11 of the 26 total flights. Nov. 4, 2003 — About a year after the Africa trip, Clinton took what appears to be his last trip on Epstein’s plane. He flew from Brussels to Oslo, where he had a two-day visit with officials to work on his project to prevent HIV and AIDS in developing countries. He then flew to Hong Kong, by way of Siberia, and finished the trip in Beijing. https://www.factcheck.org/2019/08/the-epstein-connections-fueling-conspiracy-theories/ |

177. Bill was a player, who liked consensual sex with women, not a creep.
He had affairs like alot of politicians do but there was nothing to suggest he ever did anything illegal, despite years and years of investigations. He did get impeached over lying about a blowjob.
Also Bill's pattern strongly suggests that he liked adult women with big hair and big curves - not underaged kids. To the extent he was partying with Epstein's crowd - it wouldn't shock me that Bill could've hooked up with adult women - who also were in that circle, not just the 'lolitas'. |

And I wonder if Virginia Giuffre was paid to say what she did, or if she was forced to because she 'owed someone favors'. As regards Clinton, time will tell if there's anything behind Guiffre's comments.... cherry-picked words can be taken out of context, as we all know. |

80. I have long thought Virginia is a liar
There are many problems with her accounts, which have changed over time
People have been upset with me because I have always said I don’t believe her charges against Dershowitz. I went to law school. I read a thousand ways people were caught committing crimes. As a result I just naturally know that there might be cameras or devices listening Pretty much everywhere. In a business meeting in a high rise I just assume someone might have aimed a laser at the window to listen in, for business advantage reasons, for instance. So I absolutely do not believe Dershowitz would have had sex with a child in an Epstein property. The odds are absurdly small anyway but he certainly would have known he was at grave risk of life in jail. It just didn’t happen, I will give ten to one odds happily. I have always suspected her. And it is very rare that I have suspicions about sex accusers. But Virginia? I have always gotten liar vibes from her. |

Your next objection was that the source of the corroboration was untrustworthy hearsay. Except that it wasn't. It was the guy himself, on camera, in a legitimate documentary. Now you are objecting that,though there are corroborating reports that he was on the island, there are no flight logs or other corroborations that you know of. OK. For myself, if there is proof that Clinton did something wrong, he should be prosecuted. But so far there is no proof he did anything worng. There are two independent reports that he was on the island, and I found the IT guy very plausible. So I do believe he was on the island. That doesn't mean he did anything wrong or knew of the wrongdoing. YMMV. |

He traveled with a large contingent. Several countries on each continent were visited. Fox creatively counted each leg of the journey from country to country as a "flight", allowing them to come up with the number "26".
Much of this was flogged by Fox in 2016 and reguritated last summer by the media in general when Epstein killed himself. ![]() |

MANHATTAN (CN) – She told the lawyers about flying in a helicopter with Bill, and how Jeffrey Epstein boasted about his friendship with Donald. Asked by an attorney to identify whether any of the Churcher statements were inaccurate, Giuffre put check marks next to about a dozen bombshells, clarifying details such as who saw President Bill Clinton get into a “huge black helicopter” with accused Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. “I said to Sharon that Ghislaine told me that she flew Bill in the heli- —the black helicopter that Jeffrey bought her, and I just wanted to clarify that I didn’t actually see her do that,” Giuffre said, referring to a trip she took to the Caribbean with Epstein when she was 17 years old. “I heard from Ghislaine that she did that.” ......and that Clinton had Secret Service with him on such trips. “I didn’t physically see him have sex with any of the girls, so I can’t say who he had sex with in his whole life or not, but I just know it wasn’t with me when I was with other girls,” Giuffre said. https://www.courthousenews.com/clinton-trump-emerge-in-uns |

Fuck trump. Donald Trump boasted about meeting semi-naked teenagers in beauty pageants Donald Trump used to “stroll right in” to the dressing room of beauty pageants while the contestants - some of whom were teenagers - were naked or half-dressed, a former model has claimed. Tasha Dixon was 18 when she competed in the Miss USA pageant, winning the state crown. “Our first introduction to him was when we were at the dress rehearsal and half naked changing into our bikinis,” Ms Dixon told CBS. “He just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless. Other girls were naked.” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-former-miss-arizona-tasha-dixon-naked-undressed-backstage-howard-stern-a7357866.html |

129. Clinton was never there
This is an old story that Clinton already denied and the secret service backs him up.

150. Fox News report in 2016.
In response to a separate FOIA request from FoxNews.com, the U.S. Secret Service said it has no records showing agents were ever on the island with Clinton.

161. "no agents were ever on the island". It doesnt say HE was never there.
Not normal, but agents arent ALWAYS with ex presidents. Carter even gave his up

162. A former president may waive his right to protection. Clinton hasn't.
In 1984, another law allowed former presidents and their dependents to decline Secret Service protection if they wished, which Richard Nixon did in 1985, 11 years after he left office. But current records indicate that the Carters, the Clintons and the two Bush families are availing themselves of the perk.
https://www.bnd.com/living/liv-columns-blogs/answer-man/article101538627.html There is a procedure through which a former president can request permission to temporarily dismiss his secret service detail for a specific event or trip. It's rare and because it involves paperwork, there would be a paper trail. ![]() |

191. Indeed, I can't imagine that a former President could just "ditch" SS protection without
it setting off all sorts of alarms. Makes sense that there's a process that would be followed and documented.

137. Clinton
A quick check of Secret Service logs should clear up any involvement on behalf of Bill Clinton. I don't think he's been out of their sights for almost 30 years.

142. If Bill Clinton is involved in this
I can't defend him anymore then I'd defend Trump, wrong is wrong. Just because I voted for him doesn't make it something I could defend him against.

144. Bill loves women.
Those rapists hate women, that's the thrill.

178. Exactly. Bill was a rock star that women liked,
and in most (if not) all of the cases we know about he was the one pursued by them.

145. Clinton impersonator?
Epstein might have used his helicopter to ferry in a Clinton doppelganger as a gag.

149. This "breaking news" was debunked in a May 2016 report.
Fox News tried very hard to make something of of Guiffre's claims in 2015. Because he is an ex-president, Bill Clinton always travels with secret service.
In response to a separate FOIA request from FoxNews.com, the U.S. Secret Service said it has no records showing agents were ever on the island with Clinton.

158. Newsweek resurrected an old headline concerning allegations that have been public knowledge
for years and that were debunked in 2016 when HRC was running for president.

157. Plus the timeline would mean this happened either while Clinton was president
or about a year or 2 after. When everyone would easily know him and it would be news immediately where he was.
Even now he is easily recognizable but at that time Hillary was senator so they would be even more in public eye . It's too bad people are easily led around by things like this which once you get into details don't hold up. Same happened with the Reide accusations agsinst Biden. And the other one where he wasn't even at the event. |
