Videos of Bill Clinton, the former US president, and Hillary Clinton, the former US secretary of state, answering questions about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were released on Monday by a House committee investigating the late financier. The recordings of the depositions, which spanned hours over two days last week, show how both Clintons distanced themselves from Epstein. Bill Clinton told the committee that he had ended his relationship with Epstein years before the financier entered a guilty plea in 2008 to soliciting prostitution from an underage girl. The former Democratic president said he first remembered meeting Epstein when he flew on his private jet in 2002 for the Clintons’ humanitarian work, and they parted ways the year after. “There’s nothing that I saw when I was around him that made me realize he was trafficking women,” Bill Clinton told the committee. Epstein visited the White House numerous times during Clinton’s presidency and there are photos of them shaking hands, but Bill Clinton said he did not recall those interactions. Hillary Clinton said she never even recalled meeting Epstein. The former first lady took the opportunity during the deposition to admonish Republicans on the House oversight committee, saying: “You have held zero public hearings, refused to allow the media to attend them, including today, despite espousing the need for transparency on dozens of occasions. “You have made little effort to call the people who show up most prominently in the Epstein files. And when you did, not a single Republican member showed up for Les Wexner’s deposition,” she continued. “This institutional failure is designed to protect one political party and one public official, rather than to seek truth and justice for the victims and survivors.” Footage released during Hillary Clinton’s testimony also shows the former secretary of state finding out that Representative Lauren Boebert has shared an unauthorized photo with conservative YouTuber Ben...

Lisa-Blue Although the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) and the Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ) managed to end in green territory on Monday, uncertainty remains very high with the CBOE Volatility Index ( VIX ) topping 25—currently around 21—according to Seeking Alpha analyst Damir Tokic . “The risks are accumulating,” he said. “Private credit, AI disruption, AI bubble, and now the stagflationary risk due to the geopolitical situation.” In addition, “the bond market is starting to worry about inflation” as the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield ( US10Y ) rose as much as 12 basis points on Monday, “while the Federal Funds futures are starting to price out one Fed cut less in 2026.” “The market too [feels] very heavy, near the key technical support, which, if broken, could trigger a major correction,” he concluded. However, Stephen McBride, chief analyst at RiskHedge, noted that since 1940, the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) has been higher 12 months after a major geopolitical crisis 85% of the time. “Investor’s playbook for the Iran war: Buy the invasion,” he said. Average performance of the S&P 500 around geopolitical events (Macrobond) “The immediate market aftermath of a geopolitical event like the strikes in Iran consists of stocks down, oil prices up, gold prices up, and Treasury yields down, and we expect this safe-haven mode to be in full force this week,” said David Bahnsen, CIO at The Bahnsen Group. “Investors trying to assess what to expect in terms of volatility and market response have to make assumptions about the most significant and unknowable factor in this—how long and messy the U.S. involvement with Iran may prove to be," he added. "Assuming it will prove to be a major quagmire with long-term U.S. presence is very unlikely, although the odds are not zero. Assuming it was a one-and-done strike this weekend seems optimistic,” Bahnsen said.

Johannes Simon/Getty Images News NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte voiced support Monday for recent U.S. and Israeli military operations targeting Iran, saying the actions were weakening Tehran’s pursuit of nuclear arms and ballistic missile capabilities. However, he made clear that the NATO alliance itself does not plan to take part in the campaign. Speaking to Germany’s ARD television in Brussels, Rutte said the joint efforts by Washington and Jerusalem were significant because they were diminishing Iran’s capacity to advance its nuclear and long-range missile programs. He stressed that while individual NATO member states may choose to assist the United States and Israel in various ways, the alliance as a whole has no intention of becoming directly involved. “ There are absolutely no plans whatever ​for ​NATO to ⁠get dragged into this, ” Rutte said, underscoring that any support would come from individual allies acting independently rather than under a NATO mandate.
