Hey, you're listening to Unlimited Hangout, I'm your host, Whitney Webb.

Earlier this year in May, a former Clinton White House staffer allegedly took his own life

under exceedingly shady circumstances. Mark Middleton, a former pop-8 to Clinton's chief

of staff, Thomas McClarty, was found at a property tied to Heifer International,

an NGO with direct ties to the Clinton quote-unquote philanthropies. Middleton was found with an

extension cord around his neck and a shotgun wound to the chest. Photos and video taken at the

desi and were sealed by an Arkansas court shortly after news broke of Middleton's death.

Notably, just a few months prior, it had been revealed that Middleton had been the man

who had met with Jeffrey Epstein during the vast majority of Epstein's 17 visits to the White House.

It had previously been reported that Epstein had met with Middleton around five times at the

White House, but visitor logs released by the UK's Daily Mail last December revealed that the

actual number was much, much higher. Around that same time, in December of last year, the Daily Mail

also published a photograph of Jeffrey Epstein and Galene Maxwell greeting then President Clinton

back in 1993, effectively eradicating the narrative that Clinton had not met Jeffrey Epstein

until after he had left the White House. Tellingly, hardly any American media outlet covered

the story, including news of Middleton's subsequent gruesome death. So who exactly was

Mark Middleton and what was his role at the White House and why was he meeting with Epstein?

In exploring these questions, as I've noted in some recent interviews, the riddle of Mark Middleton

gets very complicated and very crazy very quickly. To briefly summarize, well over a decade before

Epstein's first arrest in 2006, Middleton had sat in the center of a massive scandal of the Clinton

era, which today is largely forgotten. It was the subject of a major congressional investigation that

continued from the last years of the Clinton administration and into the administration of George W.
