Rep. Nancy Mace on Friday said that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick should testify to the House Oversight Committee to answer questions about his association with notorious sex predator Jeffrey Epstein.
“Howard Lutnick should take questions from the Oversight committee,” Mace, R-S.C., said in an X post on Friday morning.
Mace’s tweet responded to an X post that said the Department of Justice had removed from its database of Epstein-related documents a photo of Epstein standing in front of a man who “appears to be Howard Lutnick.”
It is not known if the man in the photo is Lutnick.
Mace later Friday morning told reporters, “I will be asking” Lutnick to testify to the Oversight committee.
Mace’s comments came before that panel was set to question former President Bill Clinton in a deposition about his connections to Epstein.
Clinton’s wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, was deposed about Epstein on Thursday.
