Why Doug Band’s Upcoming Testimony to House Oversight on the Epstein Investigation Is So Dangerous to Bill Clinton

Band can cause more than simple reputational damage to Clinton.

Yesterday night, Cristina Laila reported here on TGP about the new explosive list of people called to give testimonies on the Jeffrey Epstein-Ghislaine investigation by the House Oversight Committee, as you can read in Comer Goes Into Overdrive, Calls on Seven More People to Appear For Transcribed Interviews on Epstein – Including Bill Gates and Former Obama WH Counsel Kathy Ruemmler.

Here’s the complete list:

BREAKING: Chairman @RepJamesComer is seeking testimony regarding Jeffrey Epstein from:

• Doug Band
• Bill Gates
• Leon Black
• Lesley Groff
• Sarah Kellen
• Kathryn Ruemmler
• Ted Waitt

Our investigation continues to uncover the truth about the Epstein network.

The list has caused a sensation, after all, it is full of heavy hitters such as billionaires Bill Gates, Leon Black, and Ted Waitt.

There’s also ample possibility of new revelations with the testimonies of Epstein’s lieutenants, Sarah Kellen and Lesley Groff.

With all that, precious little attention has been given to the presence of former Bill Clinton top aide Doug Band.

But that testimony may turn out catastrophic for ‘Bubba’.

While he served in the White House, Doug Band is mostly considered ‘the architect of Clinton post-presidency’.

Band reportedly first met Jeffrey Epstein in 2002, during the high-profile Aid Charity Africa trip on the ‘Lolita Express’ alongside Bill and celebrities like Kevin Spacey and Chris Tucker – and a few young women.

In the years since then, Band has reportedly said – more than once – that he got ‘bad vibes’ from Epstein, and urged Clinton to cut ties right away.

He also allegedly declined Epstein’s invitation to visit Little St. James Island himself.

As we know, Clinton went ahead and flew on Epstein’s plane more than two dozen times in the early 2000s, always ostensibly for foundation-related travel.

Band is also known to have maintained extensive email contact with Ghislaine Maxwell, referring to her as his ‘social matchmaker’, ‘lover’, and even ‘pimp’ in their exchanges.

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

In later years, Band claimed that he tried to separate the Clinton family from Maxwell, barring her from events after Epstein’s 2008 plea deal.

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.”

If Band states that in his Oversight Committee testimony, he can put Clinton in all kinds of legal trouble, starting with charges for Lying to Congress.

Band also told Vanity Fair about other connections between the Clintons and Ghislaine Maxwell.

“Chelsea had ties to Epstein and Maxwell, Band said; he showed me a photo of Bill and Chelsea posing with Epstein and Maxwell at the King of Morocco’s wedding. Chelsea remained friends with Maxwell for years after the press revealed Maxwell was a close associate of Epstein’s. For instance, Chelsea invited Maxwell to her 2010 wedding at the Brooke Astor estate in Rhinebeck, New York, after Epstein had pleaded guilty in Florida to procuring sex from a minor.”
