Lutnick set to testify before House panel over Epstein ties

TL;DR
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has agreed to testify before the House Oversight Committee about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein; while he has not been accused of wrongdoing, bipartisan scrutiny has intensified after revelations including a 2012 trip to Epstein’s private island, and Rep. Nancy Mace says she will subpoena him if needed. Lutnick says he wants to set the record straight, the White House defends his role, and the testimony is expected to be scheduled behind closed doors in coming weeks.
