Newly released footage from the House Oversight Committee is intensifying an already explosive political clash over Hillary Clinton’s closed-door deposition regarding Jeffrey Epstein.
The video captures a heated exchange that unfolded roughly an hour into Clinton’s testimony, after Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) leaked a photo from inside the deposition room. The image quickly spread on social media, prompting Clinton’s legal team to object and temporarily delay proceedings.
When informed during the hearing that a photo had been leaked, Clinton reacted sharply.
“I’m done with this. If you guys are doing that, I am done,” she said. “You can hold me in contempt from now until the cows come home. This is just typical behavior.”
As someone suggested taking the discussion off the record, Clinton struck the table with her hand and then her fist.
“Oh, for heaven’s sake. It doesn’t matter. We all are abiding by the same rules,” she said.
Boebert indicated she would take the image down, though it had already been posted publicly by a third party. Clinton eventually pushed her chair back and said, “I’m done … for now,” before stepping away. The deposition later resumed.
Boebert defended her actions publicly, saying “nothing wrong” occurred and later quipping that she admired Clinton’s blue suit. After the video’s release, Boebert escalated her criticism, contrasting Clinton’s reaction to the photo with scrutiny over former President Bill Clinton’s documented flights on Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet.

The tension extended beyond Boebert. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) described additional confrontations during the deposition. In the footage, Clinton is seen raising her voice while discussing her work as a U.S. senator in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks.
“You asked the question, I’m going to answer your question. This was what I spent my time doing!” Clinton said.
“You’re going to yell at me? I am a survivor trying to look out for other survivors,” Mace replied.
“And I was taking care of the people who lost 3,000 lives!” Clinton responded.
Clinton spokesperson Nick Merrill dismissed claims that she was screaming, but the released video confirms that voices were raised during portions of the exchange.
During her testimony, Clinton maintained that she never met Epstein, had no knowledge of his criminal conduct, and knew Ghislaine Maxwell only casually. Public records have documented that Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s plane multiple times, and Maxwell attended Chelsea Clinton’s 2010 wedding following Epstein’s earlier conviction — details that have fueled ongoing scrutiny.
