Humiliating questions just kept coming.

We have been reporting here on TGP on the fact that former Bill Clinton’s top aide Doug Band was vastly featured in the DOJ’s ‘Jeffrey Epstein Files’, and later gave a closed-door testimony to the House Oversight Committee.

Band was reportedly the creator of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI), an entity which both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell have, in court documents, alleged to help conceive and fund.

We also reported that Band’s testimony did carry substantial danger for Clinton. Back in 2020, Band aired his grievances against the Clinton family in a long Vanity Fair interview.

From the 2020 Vanity Fair article:

“Band told me he had been trying to push Epstein out of Clinton’s orbit ever since their much-discussed 2002 trip to Africa aboard Epstein’s private 727, dubbed the ‘Lolita Express’. Band recalled that Epstein had made a bunch of ridiculous claims on the trip, like boasting that he invented the derivatives market. Band said he had no idea about Epstein’s sex crimes back then but got enough bad vibes that he advised Clinton to end the relationship. But Clinton continued to socialize with Epstein and take his money. In 2006 Epstein donated $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation. Clinton made more than two dozen trips on Epstein’s jet around this time, Epstein’s flight logs show.”

And here we have the kicker:

“In January 2003, according to Band, Clinton visited Epstein’s private Caribbean Island, Little St. James. Band said it was one of the few trips he declined to go on in his time with Clinton. A Clinton spokesperson said the president had never been to the island and provided detailed travelogue entries of the period in question that did not contain a visit.”

So, there we have it, Band saying Clinton went to Pedophile Island.

Today, a month after his closed-door appearance before Congress, reports are arising on the contents of this humiliating day.

Band was reportedly forced to address the size of his penis, in ‘humiliating grilling before Congress about his once flirtatious friendship with Jeffrey Epstein’s madam Ghislaine Maxwell’.

Daily Mail reported:

“Doug Band, who appeared for a closed-door interview with the House Oversight Committee last month, was peppered with questions about the ’embarrassing’ trove of emails he exchanged with Maxwell during the 2000s – including one where she described him being ‘hung like a horse.’

In other emails read out by members of the panel, Maxwell described herself as Band’s ‘pimp’ and ‘lover’.

Band reportedly admitted flirting with Maxwell, but denied ever having an affair with her.

“In another email read out by the committee, Maxwell offered to arrange ‘the s****y Spanish girl’ next time Band was in New York, along with a ‘cool poised Swedish type’.

‘Let me know when you next go to Europe as I do have some interesting and fun friends that you could hook up with,’ Maxwell told Band, according to the email.”

Republican Rep. Nancy Mace pressured Band over why would Maxwell say he was ‘hung like a horse’ if they didn’t have a sexual relationship.

“In his testimony, Band denied ever seeing Clinton doing anything compromising with Epstein or any of his victims.

On the trips on Epstein’s plane where Clinton was present, the former president would go to the back and meet with the pedophile privately in his office, according to Band.“

He also didn’t confirm that Clinton went to Little St. James Island, walking back his earlier claim.

CNN reported:

“In 2020, Band told Vanity Fair that Clinton visited Epstein’s private island in 2003. In February, however, Clinton testified that he was never on Epstein’s island — and on Tuesday, Band amended his previous assertion during his own interview with the panel, the sources said.

‘He turned out to clearly not know the difference between the truth and a lie’, Mace told CNN. ‘He contradicted his Vanity Fair interview from a couple of years ago. He testified today that he had no knowledge of Clinton going to Epstein island, but he used some very vague language in how he did it. It was all very obtuse and obstructive language when he did answer’.

Band stated he had no evidence that Clinton went to Epstein’s island, and he doesn’t remember why he told Vanity Fair that he did, one of the sources told CNN.

‘He was the worst witness we’ve ever had’, Mace told CNN. ‘He just said, ‘I do not recall’ on damn near every answer and he contradicted himself multiple times’.”
