Commerce Secretary agrees to Epstein interview after document release
Howard Lutnick will sit for a transcribed interview with House Oversight on May 6 regarding his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, after DOJ records revealed connections beyond his claimed 2005 cutoff date. The Commerce Secretary previously downplayed his relationship with Epstein during February testimony, but documents show a 2012 family visit to Little St. James island and business dealings through 2018. Lutnick oversees key trade policies and AI export controls worth trillions annually, making any credibility damage economically significant.
