    Yeah. Acosta didn’t answer who at the Department of Justice did he talk to about how to handle the Epstein prosecution? Acosta has implied that Main Justice took a softer line on Epstein than he did or, at least, that the Department was on board with his actions. I think Acosta is fabricating on this point, and I noticed he looks like he could be Anthony Weiner's cousin.

    Sure, the DOJ and the FBI were heavily involve in this. One wonders who in the DOJ gave the orders. If you think Acosta made any decision on his own you are only fooling yourself. Epstein has been protected ever since until now when outside forces pushed to uncover what went on.

    So what?

    It happened during the Bush Administration.

    Apparently W Bush and the GOP liked to take soft line on Child Rapists?

    What was Bush's DOJ thinking?:smh:

    Well, Epstein sure dance when he asked who at "main justice" rewash referring to. He also fancies himself the "hero" for getting any jail time at all, when all he had to do was let the FBI complete it's investigation and then bring Federal Charges. I didn't believe him as far as I could throw him.

    How many more girls were raped because he protected an insider predator Billionaire rather than young working class girls?

    And what's with the false concern about "victim shaming"? It appears the insiders viewed these young victims more as underaged prostitutes than rape victims.

    So....8 years before Trump even considered running for President? That would be some serious "crystal-balling".

    Barry Krischer the Palm Beach County states attorney at the time of the nvestigation of Epstein called his account that they were prepared to let Epstein walk without serving jail time until he Acosta stepped in ,"Completely Wrong"."Mr Acosta should not be allowed to rewrite history"
    "If Mr Acosta was really concerned with the states case and felt he had to rescue the matter he would have moved forward with the 53 page indictment that his own office drafted".So Krischer has a completely different opinion and narrative than Acosta???

    nothing like a bit of retroactivity though. We know Trumps criteria for hiring and firing

    A) Has he ever done anything nice for me?
    B) Has he ever done anything nasty to me?

    Hire if A) Fire if B)

    Nope

    But it could have been a long standing debt

    “Go easy and I will make it worth your while”.

    Worse though is that there would have been NO WAY that Trump did not know of this sweetheart deal and still he hired Acosta for........ oh! That is right we ARE talking about someone who thinks the Revolutionary army tool over the airports

    Dershowitz is a Trumper now and has never been a liberal but rather a neoCON scum. Get a grip. Dershowitz was probably helping Epstein recruit these 13 year olds.

    Party planner’s surprise: Just Donald Trump, Jeff Epstein and 28 ‘calendar girls’
    [​IMG]
    That's what George Houraney, a Florida-based businessman, asked Trump back in 1992 about an event he had organized at the future president's request, according to a report from the New York Times. The exclusive “calendar girl” party at Mar-a-Lago was apparently even more exclusive than Houraney had expected when he put it together — Jeff Epstein, Trump and the girls. That's it. ...

    HEAR IT: Donald Trump said 17-year-old Ivanka made him promise not to date anyone younger than her


    The casino owner and future Republican nominee told Howard Stern in 1999 that his daughter Ivanka, who was 17 at the time, had made him swear not to date anyone younger than her.

    I always wondered why he has been so supportive of Trump, and maybe we know the answer, yes? Maybe Dersh baby has been
    tapping the forbidden fruit?
