1. Or there's nothing wrong with his recollection and he's lying his a$$ off.

3. WTF, am I to believe not a reporter at the presser knew this and did not ask the question?

If you’re reading about the Epstein case, please know you have Julie Brown from the @MiamiHerald to thank. She has been covering this case before Trump and the #metoo movement.

@jkbjournalist, I hope a Pulitzer is in your future for this outstanding work. Thank you.

4. So Who Was Acosta Really Working For Back Then......

Do you think he made some money on this secret plea deal? Does he have an off-shore bank account that was padded because of this secret plea deal?

Do you think that this is how Acosta made it to a cabinet post? They got kompromat on him and Trump can get him to do anything he wants him to do or Trump will blackmail him?

Gosh - it's so easy to think up all kinds of theories about all that is going on. Trump sure gave us a lot of food for thought here. I'm actually thinking that Trump has kompromat on all of those people that serve him. It helps make sense for a guy like Barr.

We've go a mob boss as president. Looks like the mob has finally found a place for itself beyond the 'garbage business', 'running numbers' and 'bootlegging'. Now they're into the real big money ventures.

This is all about greed and money. Epstein is just a spoke in the wheel. I wonder what he did recently to get himself arrested? Do you think he threatened Trump somehow?

Why didn't they raid his private island and his other homes?

5. Former Florida state attorney pushes back against Acosta account

BY BRETT SAMUELS - 07/10/19 06:45 PM EDT

... The Miami U.S. Attorney’s Office had prepared a federal indictment against Epstein, but it was never filed. Acosta has also faced criticism for failing to disclose the plea deal to Epstein’s victims, something he said would have jeopardized the agreement.

Krischer downplayed his office's role in the eventual plea deal, and alleged the U.S. attorney's office abandoned its federal indictment after "secret negotiations between Mr. Epstein's lawyers and Mr. Acosta."

"If Mr. Acosta was truly concerned with the State’s case and felt he had to rescue the matter, he would have moved forward with the 53-page indictment that his own office drafted," Krischer said ...

7. Oversight Committee needs to get this guy to come in and testify (in public) whether or not Acosta

agrees to appear in front of the committee too.
