Claim: A video shared online in January 2024 accurately showed former U.S. President Bill Clinton greeting medical workers outside of a hospital in an attempt to distract the news media from his connections to the late Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. Rating: About this rating MiscaptionedOn Jan. 2, 2024, a video was posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, showing former U.S. President Bill Clinton shaking hands with hospital workers. In that video, which was posted on Oct. 17, 2021, Clinton walked out of a California hospital after being treated for an infection. Because the video is real, but the context around it is verifiably false, we have rated this claim as "Miscaptioned." Among the claims was a video of Hillary Clinton supposedly threatening to assassinate anyone who connected her husband with Epstein (false) or photos of Epstein with the former president (true).
