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.

This level of barbarity is unconscionable.
Nobody should be comfortable with children and families starving to death.
It is morally indefensible to allow the manufactured and man-made starvation to continue. The United States must stop funding and enabling this genocide.

When it comes to Epstein, the grand jury transcripts aren’t the ones that people seeking the truth should be interested in. Prosecutors always say, “Follow the money.” That’s as true here as in any other case. Read about how it could happen: joycevance.substack.com/p/laffaire-e...

I don’t care if it’s Bill Clinton or Donald Trump—I want every name on the Epstein list made public. Release the full Epstein files now (with victim identities protected). Everyone involved should be held accountable. No more cover-ups.
