And ask Acosta why he just got a streaming deal with Trump media and a job on the board at Newsmax just three months ago.
Why did Epstein get a “sweetheart deal” from US Attorney Alex Acosta, who later became Trump’s Secretary of Labor during the first administration?
Acosta is still alive, folks.
Maybe we should ask him.

Nearly 70% of those detained by Trump’s militarized ICE have no criminal convictions
Instead, he's targeting nonviolent, often-legal immigrants to meet arbitrary deportation quotas.
Yesterday, Reps. Magaziner, Ramirez, and I held an oversight forum to expose this unconstitutional and cruel agenda.

If the Trump admin continues to follow the Russian authoritarian scripts he loves, Maxwell will exonerate Trump, incriminate Dems, get a pardon, and fall out a window. Not necessarily in that order.
Top Justice Department officials have contacted lawyers representing Ghislaine Maxwell, a longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein who is serving a prison term for sex trafficking, to address questions about the case that have fueled a furious right-wing backlash.
