    The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday released the transcript of Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s closed‑door deposition about his relationship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Lutnick, who was once Epstein’s neighbor and exchanged emails with the financier—communications later made public by the Department of Justice—testified on May 6 after criticism that his earlier statements about the ties were contradictory. The committee also released the transcript of its deposition with Ted Waitt, a former boyfriend of Ghislaine Maxwell and co‑founder of Gateway Inc., as part of its broader investigation into the federal government’s handling of the Epstein‑Maxwell cases. Lawmakers have also sought testimony from other high‑profile figures, including former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and Bill Gates, who is slated to appear next month.
