In a March 3 letter, Republican Chairman James Comer said the Justice Department\u2019s Epstein documents have renewed interest in the case and outlined the committee\u2019s focus on Epstein and Maxwell\u2019s probe, Epstein\u2019s death, sex trafficking networks, and whether powerful contacts helped shield them from accountability. Gates was invited to an in-person, transcribed interview on May 19, 2026, in Washington, D.C., with the committee asserting he may have information useful to the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>The Oversight Committee describes itself as the principal body with broad authority to investigate \u201cany matter at any time,\u201d and it advised Gates to coordinate testifying through its Majority staff. CBS News later reported that Gates would appear for questioning on June 10, and a Gates representative said he welcomes the opportunity and will answer the committee\u2019s questions. Gates has apologized for his ties to Epstein, stating their relationship lasted from 2011 to 2014 and that he regrets spending time with him, although he denies any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n<p>The piece also notes a 2013 Epstein-drafted document suggesting Gates had affairs with Russian individuals, a claim Gates\u2019 representatives call false. The Wall Street Journal reported Gates acknowledged some affairs, including with a Russian bridge player and a Russian nuclear physicist. Gates is not the first prominent figure questioned over Epstein; Bill and Hillary Clinton testified earlier, with Hillary reportedly losing composure at times. While some Democrats had tried to link Donald Trump to Epstein, The New York Times found no evidence of Trump\u2019s involvement; Trump had previously contacted authorities about Epstein and had him removed from Mar-a-Lago<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2588175,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ben-Working-Feature-Image-2026-04-07T161402.839.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[34004,34558,9006,34573,3976],"class_list":["post-2588174","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-bill-gates","tag-congressional-hearing","tag-epstein","tag-house-oversight-committee","tag-investigation"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ben-Working-Feature-Image-2026-04-07T161402.839.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2588174","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2588174"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2588174\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2588178,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2588174\/revisions\/2588178"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2588175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2588174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2588174"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2588174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
