VIDEO: Hillary Clinton Storms Out Of Epstein Deposition After Photo Leak YY

A closed-door congressional deposition of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton descended into chaos Thursday after a photograph of her mid-testimony began circulating online, sparking a heated confrontation with Republican lawmakers and an abrupt pause in proceedings.

Clinton had agreed to appear before the House Oversight Committee as part of its ongoing inquiry into disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. The deposition was held at a performing arts center near the Clintons’ home in Chappaqua, New York, and was being conducted behind closed doors under standard House rules governing private testimony.

The situation escalated when a photo taken during the session surfaced on social media. The image was first posted by conservative commentator Benny Johnson and quickly spread across multiple platforms.

According to multiple reports, the photograph was provided by Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), who was present inside the deposition room. Clinton’s legal team immediately objected, arguing that House rules prohibit members and witnesses from taking or distributing photographs during closed-door testimony.

The hearing was briefly paused as lawmakers and attorneys attempted to determine how the image had been captured and shared.

When Clinton returned to the room, tensions reportedly boiled over.
