When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn't justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta's insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he'd been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google Drive

In his recent testimony before Congress, former Labor Secretary and ex–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta doubled down on his long-criticized defense of the 2008 non-prosecution agreement that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to dodge federal sex-trafficking charges and serve barely a year in a cushy county jail. Acosta told the House Oversight Committee that at the time, he believed a federal trial would have been a “crapshoot” because of what he called limited cooperation from victims and thin evidence — a claim that directly contradicts later Justice Department findings showing that dozens of victims were ready to testify. He also denied having any knowledge that Epstein would be granted work-release, despite extensive records showing the arrangement was approved during his watch. His tone was clinical and detached, as if the systemic betrayal of dozens of trafficked minors was just another bureaucratic footnote.Lawmakers on both sides were incensed, with Democrats accusing Acosta of rewriting history and showing “zero remorse” for enabling one of the most notorious predators in modern American history. Even some Republicans privately admitted that his testimony came off as evasive and self-serving. Acosta tried to shift blame to subordinates and state prosecutors, but his own department's inspector general previously concluded that he exercised “poor judgment” and gave Epstein a sweetheart deal that “violated the spirit of the law.” For the victims who have spent years fighting for justice, Acosta's congressional appearance only confirmed what they already knew — that the powerful protect their own, even when it means selling out the powerless.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House committee releases more Jeffrey Epstein documents | Fox News

Alex Acosta's appearance before Congress was nothing short of a masterclass in bureaucratic nonsense and evasive cowardice. Instead of accountability, he offered the same tired excuses and jargon-filled deflections, pretending that the Epstein plea deal was some sort of complicated chess match rather than what it truly was: a grotesque betrayal of justice. He smirked, stammered, and dressed up cowardice as prudence, insisting his hands were tied when in reality, he was the one tying them. It was a performance not of contrition but of arrogance, as if the public should feel lucky that this man even bothered to show up and grace them with his half-truths.Worse still, Acosta continues to play his role in the Epstein charade, feeding the illusion that this was merely an unfortunate footnote in a prosecutor's career rather than a calculated decision that shielded a predator and his powerful friends. By refusing to admit fault or show genuine remorse, he reinforces the same wall of silence that has defined the entire cover-up from day one. His congressional testimony wasn't about truth—it was about maintaining the narrative, keeping the spotlight off the networks of influence that Epstein served. Acosta wasn't testifying for the people; he was testifying for the system that thrives on protecting the powerful, and in doing so, he revealed exactly why history will remember him as a coward who sold out justice and stood by it with a smirk.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Alex Acosta: Former US attorney defends Epstein's 2008 plea deal in hours-long appearance on Capitol Hill | CNN Politics

Alexander “Alex” Acosta served as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida in 2005-2009, during which time his office negotiated a highly controversial non-prosecution agreement in 2008 with Jeffrey Epstein. This deal allowed Epstein to plead guilty only to state charges (solicitation of prostitution), avoid federal prosecution, spend about a year in jail (with generous work release privileges), register as a sex offender, and receive restitution, rather than face broader trafficking charges that many believe were warranted. Acosta later served as Secretary of Labor under Donald Trump, resigning in 2019 amid public outcry over his role in the Epstein plea deal.On September 19, 2025, Acosta testified under oath in a closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee, answering questions about the 2008 agreement. He defended his actions by saying there were “evidentiary issues” at the time — for example, concerns about whether the witnesses would be consistent and whether the federal case could have been proven at trial. He also asserted he had received assurances that Epstein would not be granted work release, but said local authorities in Palm Beach nonetheless allowed it. Acosta expressed regret over how victims were treated and acknowledged that if today's knowledge had been available then, the deal likely would have been handled differently. He also emphasized that no documents he handled mentioned Donald Trump in relation to Epstein.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In his opening statement, Patel described what he called the “original sin” of the Epstein investigation as being how Alex Acosta handled the case back in 2006. He criticized the limited search warrants used then and said they did not seize as much investigative material as they should have. Patel argued that significant portions of the case were restrained by the original non-prosecution agreement, which included provisions protecting some documents via court orders and limiting later prosecutorial or investigative access.Patel also addressed whether there is credible evidence that Epstein trafficked underage girls to other individuals (i.e. beyond himself).

In his opening statement, Patel described what he called the “original sin” of the Epstein investigation as being how Alex Acosta handled the case back in 2006. He criticized the limited search warrants used then and said they did not seize as much investigative material as they should have. Patel argued that significant portions of the case were restrained by the original non-prosecution agreement, which included provisions protecting some documents via court orders and limiting later prosecutorial or investigative access.Patel also addressed whether there is credible evidence that Epstein trafficked underage girls to other individuals (i.e. beyond himself).

Congress is holding a private meeting with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein as part of an expanding bipartisan probe into how the Department of Justice handled Epstein's prosecution. The House Oversight Committee, which has already subpoenaed former officials including Alex Acosta and demanded Epstein-related Suspicious Activity Reports from the Treasury Department, is positioning these survivor meetings as critical to uncovering the full scope of failures and possible cover-ups. Lawmakers want to hear directly from those most affected, not only about Epstein's crimes but also about how institutions may have ignored or mishandled their pleas for justice.Alongside the closed-door session, several survivors are also expected to appear publicly at a Capitol press conference organized by Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie. This event will push for greater transparency, including the release of sealed files tied to Epstein's network. Survivors and their advocates argue that without disclosure, accountability remains out of reach, and they warn that any attempt to bury these records would deepen public distrust. The coordinated private testimony and public advocacy signal a renewed, aggressive phase of congressional scrutiny into Epstein's ties, finances, and protection.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House lawmakers to meet with Jeffrey Epstein's victims amid probe of 'suspicious' financial transactions

SEASON 4 EPISODE 8: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Donald Trump might as well have shot those kids in Minneapolis himself yesterday. Trump sends the WRONG guns in the WRONG hands to the WRONG places pursuing the WRONG criminals. You want to be tough on crime, Trump? Deploy the National Guard to the headquarters of the gun-manufacturing companies and arrest the monsters who make their money from the child-murdering business. Murdering children during their thoughts and prayers. And have ICE round up the politician prostitutes who take the gun money to protect a lie about what the second amendment really means. These are the criminals. Trump is the criminal. Trump is soft on crime, especially on the most prevalent, heart-rending crime of our century, school shootings. You want to push back against Trump as he militarizes this country? As he makes it The United Police States of America? You want to make something good happen in the wake of these latest children that we as a nation have sacrificed on our mindless altar of worship to guns? You want these to be the last? You have to say it; you have to SAY the truth: Trump might as well have shot them himself. Democrats are strangling themselves by listening to consultants and strategists who insist they cannot push back on Trump's deployment of troops in big cities because polling shows Trump's only policy that gets approval (53%) is his new stance on "crime." And yet the biggest political event of the week was a man who simply stood up and concisely and with controlled rage told the truth: Trump is crazy, Trump is trying to provoke violence, Trump's enablers will be prosecuted (or betrayed by him), and the media is bothsidesing us to death. His name is Governor J.B. Pritzker of Illinois and his comments may have been the true headline of this week. Also, bookkeeping news: the fine folks at iHeart and I have agreed to continue this podcast through at least the midterms. And a further announcement on a wider footprint is coming. B-Block (27:33) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: This may be the best edition of this, ever. Could this be the craziest thing (out of the 50,000 crazy things) Stephen Miller has said? Is he the first person to use the phrase "pool hall" in 60 years? Oh here we go: my ex is back in the news and stuck with the worst headline I've ever read: "RFK Jr's Digital Lover." And Candace Owens is being sued for defamation by the President and 1st Lady of France and she wants Trump to declare them "foreign invaders" and is amazed he won't because she's just not bright. C-Block (44:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Do people like Owens believe the crap they spout? I actually have 45 years' experience dealing with the phenomenon of the product subsuming the salesman. I met Rush Limbaugh when he was just a baseball guy and 30 years ago he stood at my desk at ESPN dreaming of doing SportsCenter. I knew Hannity when he said "why do people get worked up about this? It's just TV?" And then the link is established. The more they believe, the more money they make.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The official story has always painted Alex Acosta as the man solely responsible for Jeffrey Epstein's non-prosecution agreement, but that version is designed to mislead. Acosta was a mid-level figure, a convenient scapegoat set up to absorb public outrage while the real decisions were made in Washington. Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Deputy Attorney General Mark Filip, and other senior DOJ brass were the ones who met with Epstein's powerful legal team, signed off on the immunity clause, and ensured the deal protected not only Epstein but his co-conspirators. Acosta merely carried out orders that had already been determined above him, and when the truth started to unravel, he was offered up as the fall guy to shield the institution.The failure to subpoena everyone involved—from state prosecutors to Main Justice leadership—reveals that Congress is more interested in theater than accountability. By focusing blame on Acosta, the system preserved itself, kept survivors from the truth, and avoided admitting the uncomfortable reality that DOJ itself bent the law to protect a billionaire predator. True justice requires putting every official who touched the deal under oath, including Mukasey and Filip, to expose how the NPA was engineered. Until that happens, the scandal remains unresolved and the cover-up intact, with Acosta remembered not as the architect of Epstein's freedom, but as the shield sacrificed to keep the powerful safe.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The House Oversight Committee, led by Chairman James Comer, has subpoenaed Jeffrey Epstein's estate for a broad collection of records, including financial documents, correspondence, Epstein's will, agreements with prosecutors, and what has been described as the “birthday book.” That book, presented to Epstein on his 50th birthday, contained notes and letters from acquaintances and has been cited as a potential source of information on his personal and professional connections. The committee stated the request is part of its wider probe into how Epstein's crimes were handled and what federal authorities may have overlooked or failed to disclose.In addition, the committee has scheduled former U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta for a transcribed interview on September 19. Acosta, who approved the 2008 non-prosecution agreement that shielded Epstein from federal charges, is expected to be questioned about the decision-making process behind that deal and the extent of Justice Department involvement. His testimony, combined with the subpoena for the estate's records, represents a new stage of congressional scrutiny into the broader handling of Epstein's case and the officials tied to it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House committee to question Alex Acosta in Jeffrey Epstein probe

Until that happens, the scandal remains unresolved and the cover-up intact, with Acosta remembered not as the architect of Epstein's freedom, but as the shield sacrificed to keep the powerful safe.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
The official story has always painted Alex Acosta as the man solely responsible for Jeffrey Epstein's non-prosecution agreement, but that version is designed to mislead. Acosta was a mid-level figure, a convenient scapegoat set up to absorb public outrage while the real decisions were made in Washington. Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Deputy Attorney General Mark Filip, and other senior DOJ brass were the ones who met with Epstein's powerful legal team, signed off on the immunity clause, and ensured the deal protected not only Epstein but his co-conspirators. Acosta merely carried out orders that had already been determined above him, and when the truth started to unravel, he was offered up as the fall guy to shield the institution.The failure to subpoena everyone involved—from state prosecutors to Main Justice leadership—reveals that Congress is more interested in theater than accountability. By focusing blame on Acosta, the system preserved itself, kept survivors from the truth, and avoided admitting the uncomfortable reality that DOJ itself bent the law to protect a billionaire predator. True justice requires putting every official who touched the deal under oath, including Mukasey and Filip, to expose how the NPA was engineered.

Virginia Roberts Giuffre's allegations against Bill Richardson and George Mitchell are part of her broader claims of being sexually abused and trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. Giuffre has stated that she was recruited by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell when she was 17 years old and subsequently coerced into a life of sex trafficking.Bill Richardson:Bill Richardson, a former Governor of New Mexico, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, and Secretary of Energy, was named by Giuffre in legal documents. She alleged that Richardson was one of the high-profile individuals to whom Epstein trafficked her for sex. Richardson has categorically denied these allegations, stating that he has never met Giuffre and was unaware of Epstein's criminal activities. His spokesperson has emphasized that Richardson's interactions with Epstein were limited to legitimate political and charitable efforts.George Mitchell:George Mitchell, a former U.S. Senator and Senate Majority Leader, was also implicated by Giuffre. She claimed that Mitchell was among the influential men to whom Epstein trafficked her. Like Richardson, Mitchell has denied the allegations, asserting that he never met, spoke with, or had any contact with Giuffre. Mitchell has stated that his limited interactions with Epstein were in the context of fundraising and other public activities.Broader Context:Giuffre's accusations against Richardson and Mitchell are part of a series of allegations she has made against several prominent individuals. These allegations emerged as part of legal proceedings against Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Giuffre's claims have drawn significant media attention, particularly given the high-profile nature of the individuals she named, however Richardson and Mitchell remain sheltered. Despite Virginia Roberts Giuffre's serious allegations against Bill Richardson and George Mitchell, both men have largely avoided the intense scrutiny and accountability that some other figures connected to Jeffrey Epstein's network faced. This disparity in attention and accountability raises questions about the role of the media and political connections in shaping public perception and legal outcomes.Bill Richardson and George Mitchell have consistently denied Giuffre's allegations, and there have been no formal charges or legal actions taken against them based on these claims. While both have faced some media coverage regarding the allegations, it has been relatively limited and quickly overshadowed by other news. Their denials and reputations as seasoned public servants might have contributed to the relatively muted response.The media's handling of the allegations against Richardson and Mitchell contrasts sharply with how Alex Acosta, the former U.S. Attorney and Labor Secretary, was scrutinized. Acosta came under intense media and public pressure due to his role in negotiating a controversial plea deal with Epstein in 2008, which was widely criticized for being overly lenient. The deal allowed Epstein to serve a relatively short jail sentence and granted immunity to potential co-conspirators, effectively shielding many of his associates from prosecution.Acosta's connection to Epstein and the perceived leniency of the plea deal led to widespread outrage, culminating in his resignation as Labor Secretary in 2019. The intense scrutiny of Acosta's actions highlighted the inconsistencies in how different figures connected to Epstein were treated by the media and the public.Richardson and Mitchell's relatively protected status can be partly attributed to their longstanding relationships with influential figures and institutions. Both men have extensive political careers and connections within the legacy media, which may have contributed to the subdued coverage of the allegations against them. Media outlets, influenced by these connections, may have been less inclined to pursue aggressive investigations or critical reporting on Richardson and Mitchell compared to Acosta.The disparity in scrutiny reflects broader issues of power and influence in both the media and the justice system. Prominent individuals with substantial political clout and media connections often navigate allegations differently than those with less influence. This disparity can lead to unequal accountability, where some individuals face significant consequences while others remain relatively unscathed.While Richardson and Mitchell have not faced the same level of accountability, the ongoing legal battles and investigations into Epstein's network continue to reveal the complexity and reach of his operations. Ghislaine Maxwell's conviction and the attention on Epstein's other associates maintain a spotlight on the broader issue of sex trafficking and the complicity of powerful individuals.However, without consistent and thorough scrutiny from both the media and the justice system, the full extent of accountability for all involved remains elusive. This situation underscores the importance of equal and unbiased investigative journalism and legal proceedings in addressing allegations of this nature.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill Richardson and George Mitchell deny allegations by alleged Jeffrey Epstein victim | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A high-level, closed-door meeting on Jeffrey Epstein was reportedly being organized by Senator JD Vance and others on the Hill, intended to address lingering questions around Epstein's federal connections, financial enablers, and the failures of law enforcement and intelligence oversight. However, the meeting was abruptly postponed without public explanation, sparking speculation that political pressure or institutional interference may have played a role. For those hoping this signaled a real appetite for accountability, the delay reads less like scheduling logistics—and more like the first crack in another whitewashed attempt at “review.”Next up...Despite renewed calls for congressional accountability in the Epstein case, it's now been confirmed that none of the key DOJ figures tied to the 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement—Alex Acosta, Michael Mukasey, or Mark Filip—will be subpoenaed. Their absence is not just conspicuous; it's damning. These are the men who greenlit, signed off on, or shielded the original sweetheart deal that let Epstein walk. If they're off-limits, what exactly is this investigation meant to uncover? Without their testimony, any so-called committee is little more than political theater—built to simulate scrutiny while protecting the architecture of the original cover-up.Next up...Following her transfer to the minimum-security Bryan Federal Prison Camp in Texas, Ghislaine Maxwell's conditions have reportedly changed—again. In contrast to the relatively relaxed environment that defines most federal prison camps, security around Maxwell has now been discreetly beefed up. Additional staff rotations, restricted movement during certain hours, and tighter monitoring protocols have been quietly implemented. The shift raises the question: If she's just another inmate serving time, why the sudden extra layers? Either she's not as low-risk as advertised, or someone's nervous about what—or who—might come calling.source:Congress doesn't want to talk to Alex Acosta, Epstein's 'sweetheart deal' makerVP Vance meeting to discuss Epstein fallout canceled, source says | ReutersGhislaine Maxwell's Texas ‘Club Fed' prison ups security after taking in Epstein sex trafficker | The Independent
Today's Headlines: House Republicans are flipping the Epstein story, subpoenaing the Clintons, former AGs, and ex-FBI chiefs — but skipping the guy who gave Epstein his sweetheart plea deal, Alex Acosta. A NYT look inside Epstein's NYC mansion turned up creepy art, hidden cameras, and celeb pics with everyone from Bill Gates to Donald and Melania. The Trump team's also dusting off the “Russia hoax” playbook, launching a grand jury probe into Obama's handling of the 2016 election interference investigation. In other Epstein distraction news, Trump popped up on the White House roof and joked about nukes. He also made himself head of the 2028 LA Olympics task force (with a side of anti-trans comments). The State Department floated visa bonds up to $15K while the FBI says 2024 had the second-highest hate crime numbers ever. Lastly, Palantir got a $10B Army contract and Elon Musk's xAI scored $200M from the Pentagon.

Megyn Kelly begins the show by discussing the possibility that the Trump administration will be releasing more on Jeffrey Epstein now, why the story really matters even if it isn't the most important story in the country or world, the need for journalists to stay on it and get to the truth, the nuances in the Epstein and Diddy story and why not all alleged victims are to be believed, the hypocrisy from some in the press who covered for Biden's cognitive decline now trying to spin Epstein to hurt Trump, and more. Then Vicky Ward, author of "The Idaho Four," joins to discuss the facts we know about whether Epstein was an intel asset or "belonged to intelligence," the significance of Ghislaine Maxwell's father Robert Maxwell, Alex Acosta's past non-answers, the details of Epstein's strange career path, how he supposedly got wealthy, the circles he ran in that included Ehud Barak and Bill Clinton, how he was able to get the cushy plea deal, how Epstein threatened her unborn children while she investigated his finances and real estate for Vanity Fair, how he infiltrated newsrooms to manipulate coverage, why his intimidation tactics went unchecked for years, new reporting about the roommate who was Bryan Kohberger's main target, his behavior mirroring past killers, how investigators used DNA technology to crack what was nearly the perfect crime, and more.
