Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
Epstein Chronicles. Alex Acosta recently appeared before Congress and gave
his version of events when it comes to his role
in Jeffrey Epstein's non prosecution agreement, and according to reports,
alex Acosta didn't show any kind of empathy, any kind
of regret that this Plea deal was initiated in the
first place. And that's because alex Acosta is and always
will be an absolute coward. You want to talk about
somebody that was built to be a yes man, to
be the fall guy, you're looking at him. Because as
much as I find alex Acosta to be reprehensible, I
don't hold him directly responsible for that Plea deal. And look,
I know that goes against the narrative that Julie K.
Brown pitched, but I don't agree as far as alex
Acosta's role, Like I always say, he was middle management, right,
he wasn't the guy really pull in the strings. He
wasn't the guy behind the curtain. And what's the best
evidence for that. Well, now we're talking about alex Acosta,
and we're not talking about Mukasey and Phelipe because when
you cut away all the fat of the bureaucracy. Those
were the two people who were in charge. There was
nothing like this happening without those dudes signing off, especially
considering who we're talking about here, when we're talking about
Jeffrey Epstein. We've already seen the proof, don't you remember
in the OIG report itself, where they talked about how
Jeffrey Epstein's lawyers reached out to Maine Justice to get
a deal and to get things worked out. What do
you think they're talking about. They most certainly weren't talking
about the weather. They were figuring out how to make
the best deal possible to keep everything quiet and make
sure that their boy and their asset, Jeffrey Epstein, was
able to keep it moving. And please make no mistake,
alex Acosta didn't have that kind of power. He couldn't
pull those kinds of strings now in his local little
district there with regular people. Yeah, the brass on the
seventh floor isn't going to worry about a case that
alex Acosta brings against a regular person. But once you
flip that script and they start getting calls from the
kind of lawyers that they were getting calls from Well,
things change, and that's not speculation, that's fact. Today's article
is from CNN and the headline former US attorney defends
Epstein's two thousand and eight plea deal in hours long
appearance on Capitol Hill. I cannot wait to get my
hands on these transcripts, and of course, the same way
we're going through the Bill Barr transcripts, we're going to
go through these ones as well, because I can only
imagine what this slinky spine son of a bitch had
to say. This article was authored by Annie Grayer, the
former US attorney who negotiated a controversial two thousand and
eight plea deal with Jeffrey Epstein. Defended that agreement in
a closed door meeting with House investigators on Friday. According
to democrats in the room, I cannot even imagine how
you could defend that non prosecution agreement. And furthermore, the
DOJ CO get rid of that thing tomorrow if they
really wanted to. They don't want to. They have no
desire to remove the MPa because if they did, that
is the quickest way to unravel everything that happened here.
You start bringing in people like Sarah Kellen Leslie Groff
and putting the screws to him. Watch how quickly everything
starts to tumble, And watch how quickly that amnesia leaves people.
Nobody's trying to go away for forty to fifty sixty
years on a rico charge. Certainly not these people. It's
very clear that alex Acosta ran a deeply flawed investigation
of the Epstein case. Representative Robert Garcia, the top Democrat
on the panel, told reporters during a break in the
meeting he also would not admit that mister Epstein received
a sweetheart deal, which has been widely reported and agreed upon. Now,
if you can't even admit that fact, then I don't
even know what to tell you. Because it's relatively apparent
to anyone who is in blind and moronic that this
was the deal of a century, the deal of a lifetime,
the deal of one hundred lifetimes. Nobody else has ever
gotten a deal like this, But all of a sudden,
this degenerate fuck comes storming in and gets this great deal.
We're gonna need more from you, alex Acosta. Starting with
an explanation. According to a readout from the panel, Acosta
expressed concern over the hours long testimony to the House
Oversight Committee that had prosecutors lost at trial, it could
have sent a message that the late convicted sex offenders'
crimes could continue. Imagine that bullshit. Meanwhile, the sentence he
did catch he was still molesting girls while he was
supposedly locked up. So Alex Acosta up here talking this
bullshit is something else. This is a man that really
has a lot of audacity, a lot of gall to
get up here and say this kind of shit. A
key issue in the US Southern District of Florida's handling
of the case was whether it should be prosecuted federally
or locally. He said, per the readout, I mean, why
would you want to prosecute it locally when you can
do it on a federal level and really hammer this
son of a bitch. And for all the morons in
the back, these were little fourteen fifteen year old girls,
so they're not adults. They can't even consent. But according
to Alex LaCosta, that shouldn't be a federal case. And again,
we're not talking about one or two. We're talking about
over one thousand, according to the DOJ's own report. And
we're also talking about numerous financial crimes. I'm talking about numerous,
But sure, let's kick it down to the state level,
where Jeffrey Epstein has some pull and where he can
make things move in a direction he wants them to move.
Oh what he could do that federally as well. Yeah, true,
but not without the same level of scrutiny. And that,
of course, is all part of it. They wanted to
keep it quiet, so keep it contained locally, as opposed
to making it a federal case where it's nationwide. And
it worked out great, right. They were able to keep
it quiet for how long? And then eventually when the
floodgates opened, everybody just pointed to everybody else and to
the system itself and said, look, everything failed, but not me. Meanwhile, us,
the citizens, the taxpayers, and the survivors are left holding
the bag. So anyone who thinks we should move on,
and I mean this as respectfully as possible, can go
fuck themselves because we're not moving on zero chance. It
is time for some accountability. It's time for some answers.
I testified for six hours. I'll let the record speak
for itself. Acosta, the former US attorney in Miami, said
when he left Capitol Hill. Oh yeah, we'll let the
record speak for itself. Huh. Well, if that's the case,
then not only are you a coward, but you're a
gigantic failure as well, because you didn't stop any crimes,
did you. You didn't stop Jeffrey Epstein from hurting anybody,
did you. Instead, he continued to hurt people, He continued
to abuse people, and he continued to commit all kinds
of other crimes that we have no idea about. So
I have zero idea what mister Charminhart over here is
even talking about, because he played a gigantic part and
all these other women who got abused after this first sentencing, right,
because if he did the right thing and he manned up,
no matter what justice said, then things could have been different.
But that's not what he did. Instead, he got along
to get along, and he just went with the program.
Emerging from the room part way through the transcribed testimony,
Democrats on the panel dismissed Acosta as not credible and
said they left the first round of questioning with more
questions than answers. Well that's always nice, huh. You have
this whole panel wasting tax payer dollars wasting all kinds
of time and you're not even getting the answers you're
looking for. And that's because you're not talking to the
right people. I've said it once and I'll say it again.
Bring in Villa Fauna, bring in Lily Sanchez, bring in Mukhesy,
bring in Philippe, bring in all the lawyers, everybody involved, Menchel, everybody.
But no, you want to bring in Alberto Gonzalez. Now
I know they got rid of that subpoena, but come on,
that dude had zero to do with any of this.
And again, that's why I call it political theater. All
of this is meant to give us the illusion that
they're doing something that they care. But all that really
matters is results, and so far, like usual, we've had none. Acosta,
they said, told investigators he didn't see sufficient evidence to
move forward with the case, even though approximately forty women
had come forward to share their accounts of sexual assault.
How does this man look at himself in the mirror
and not get ill? Can you imagine being this big
of a coward, this big of a punk ass bitch.
I can't even imagine, Like, bro, have a little bit
of courage in your life? It's okay, we're gonna get
knocked down every now and then, but life samash Pit,
get back up and get back to it. If he
would have done the right thing and stepped up and
told his bosses at Justice Department to go get screwed
and he was going to prosecute this case the way
he saw fit, bro would be a hero. But instead
he's just another villain and there is no amount of
testimony or deposition that's ever going to change that. He
seems to be pretty dug into the decisions that he made.
Democratic Representative Jasmin Crockett said of Acosta, well, I agree
with that. He's not going to admit to anything. And
that's why I said from the jump, no point even
bringing him down and putting him under oath, because he's
just going to be evasive. He's just going to avoid
any serious questions and he's not going to give us
any kind of measurable information with his answers. So what's
the point. The point is to make you think that
they're doing something. That is the whole point, and I
want you to keep that in mind as this process
continues to play out. Epstein, a well connected multimillionaire, avoided
a federal trial at the time of the plea deal
and served just thirteen months in prison for stay prostitution
charges over his involvement with underage girls, prostitution and underage girls. Huh,
how do you square that fucking circle? Considering underage girls
can't consent? A Miami Herald investigation described the plea deal
negotiated by Acosta as the deal of a lifetime. No,
not negotiated by Acosta, negotiated by Mukhesie, by Philippe, by
the bosses at the DOJ. In July twenty nineteen, the
financier Pedophile was arrested and charged in connection with having
operated a sex trafficking ring. The next month, Epstein died
by suicide, allegedly at a New York Metropolitan Correctional Center,
the federal detention facility where he was being held. The
committee's chairman, Representative James Comer of Kentucky, however, described Acosta
as cooperative and helpful throughout his appearance. Oh, I'm sure
he did. Does anyone really think that the GOP wants
to go any further? I mean, come on, they have
all the power at their fingertips. They're stalling that's what
they're doing. And the Democrats they're no better. They're trying
to use this as a political football now and they're
trying to nuke the Republicans with it, and it's going
to backfire because what we do is we lose support
then right people are like, Oh, it's a political hit job,
it's a hoax, it's this, it's that, when anybody who's
paying attention knows it's something much deeper and something much
more dangerous. So as disgusted as I am by the
GOP and their cowardice when it comes to this issue
and their hypocrisy, I'm equally disgusted with the Democrats and
the way they're trying to politicize this after not caring
about it for all these years. Now, Look, if these
Democrats were in the trenches for all these years and
they were fighting for justice and truth, I'd be right
there with them, shoulder to shoulder. But they've shown up
recently like some Johnny com latelies, and now they're acting
like they've cared this whole entire time. I'm here to
tell you they haven't. And when we used to reach
out to them, when we tried to get their help,
they ignored us, but now all of a sudden they've
had this big revelation. Don't fall for it. Folks, do
not fall for it. If they really wanted the truth,
that truth would have been out a long time ago.
Alex Acosta cooperated with our questions and today provided information
that will help advance our investigation into the federal government's
handling of the Epstein and Maxwell cases. Comer said in
a statement. This information will guide our next steps as
we work to bring accountability, and we expect to announce
new actions soon. Oh okay, great new action. So what
does that mean? More subpoenas, more arguing, more calling at
a hoax because so far all we've had is a
bunch of words, right, and words are wind. There's been
zero action Acosta. Comer said told the committee he never
met Epstein nor Glenn Maxwell, and testified that he never
saw President Donald Trump's name on any document related to
the late financier. Comer knocked Democrats line of questioning related
to Trump during the interview, saying they were batting around
so many questions about Trump. The members were talking over
each other. It was all about Trump, and that's not
what it should be about. Here Acosta's about the Plea
deal that's before Trump. Now, if you want to get
to the bottom of the cover up that is underway
right now, we have to get rid of this Plea deal.
So we have to eat the elephant one bite at
a time. Right But if the Democrats on the committee
aren't even interested in that, and all they want to
do is find some you know, dynamite to blow Trump
up with, then we're not going to get anywhere. Then again,
maybe that's the whole last Dawn point. Acosta, who also
served as Trumps Secretary of the Department of Labor during
his first term, resigned in twenty nineteen amid renewed scrutiny
over the plea deal he had negotiated with Epstein a
decade before. On Friday, he reiterated that it was his
decision alone to resign, According to a readout from the
House Committee, Oh, I'm sure there was no pressure whatsoever.
I mean, you almost have to admire the blind loyalty
that Alex Acosta has to people who really don't give
a fuck about him. It's truly my numbing to see
because if I got thrown over the side of the
boat like Alex Acosta did, Yo, it would be fire
and motherfucking brimstone for everybody involved. Your boy can be
petty as fuck when he wants to be. The two
thousand and eight Plea deal has come under scrutiny yet
again amid the House Oversight Committee's ongoing investigation into the
Epstein case. Earlier this week, testimony from FBI Director Cash
Valhalla Patel underscored how some of the Trump administration appear
to be pointing the blame at Acosta, as the President
and his team are being pushed by members of their
own party to be more transparent and release all of
the Epstein case files. During his Tuesday hearing on Capitol Hill,
Patel twice brought up Acosta on prompt, including in his
opening statement, Yo, he's looking to do anything he can
to get the spotlight off of him. But Cash Betel's
the one who opened his own mouth, right. Nobody told
him to talk about this, Nobody told him to make
things up and act like this was bigger than it
is according to him anyway. So every bit of criticism
coming Cash Betel's way, he's earned every last bit of it,
at least when it comes to Epstein. The Oversight Panel, meanwhile,
has been plowing ahead with its investigation into the so
called Epstein files. The panel subpoenaed a group of high
profile Democratic and Republican figures for information and interviews between
August and mid October, including Acosta, and have so far
released former Attorney General Bill Barr's deposition on the matter.
The Republican led committee has also received two batches of
documents from Epstein's estate as a result of a subpoena,
including a collection of letters gifted to Epstein for his
fiteth birthday. The panel has subpoenaed the Department of Justice
for all of its Epstein related files, and may public
the documents it's received so far, most of which were
already public in recent days. The committee also met with
Epstein abuse survivors and is working with the Treasury Department
to turn over certain bank activity reports. The lawmakers have
with john subpoenas for former Attorney Generals Alberto Gonzalez and
Jeff Sessions. A committee a told CNN after both men
stated and sworn letters that neither possessed any information related
to the Committee's investigation into Epstein. So I had no
idea why those two guys were being brought in anyway
seem like some window dressing or people that had no
idea what they were doing making these decisions. But if
they really want to get down to it, bring in
Lily Sanchez, bring in Marie Villafauna, bring in a Philippe,
bring in Mukhesy, bring in everybody that was involved, everybody.
We've talked about ad nauseum for the last six years,
because if you're really looking for a roadmap to justice,
if you're really looking for a roadmap to accountability, it
starts and it ends with that NPA. All of the
information that goes with this episode can be found in
