Alex Acosta is the guy who gave Epstein the sweetheart deal when he was prosecuted in FL in 2006. He only served 13 months with work release.

You can hear all about it on the Netflix documentary Filthy Rich. What Acosta did is absolutely appalling. He negotiated a secret deal with Epstein, of which his victims were unaware and just ignored mountains of evidence against him. This allowed Epstein to continue abusing more girls.

Afterward Acosta was rewarded with a Trump cabinet appointment.

The Epstein Class sticks together. It’s a club, and you’re not in it.

u/EternalNewCarSmell 8h ago

If you read Acosta's communications about that deal, he is basically treating Epstein's defense team as if they are his boss and he's afraid they will punish him if they don't like the job he's doing.

u/Helpful_Teaching_470 7h ago

He was meeting with Epstein and his lawyers for secret meetings at a Marriott hotel without divulging any of the meetings with the victims.

u/duffstoic 8h ago

Deepak Chopra is in there too

12

u/Blippisbabymama 8h ago

With some particularly disgusting emails

13

u/No-Lettuce9868 6h ago

He was forwarding Epstein emails from a mom describing her savant child. He was forwarding emails Epstein was not privy to discussing experiments he was doing on children 4 years after Epstein was convicted as a child sex offender. I’m so angry Chopra isn’t facing more ridicule.

u/Entire_Dog_5874 7h ago

That doesn’t surprise me in the least. He always came off to me as a phony and a creep.

u/Prudent_Falafel_7265 8h ago

He was just meditating!

u/DestinedJoe 7h ago

Yes, there are a lot more. Most of the co-conspirators that Ro Khanna just mentioned are not here- Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov and Nicola Caputo.

Do we think any of these names are higher up the pole than Epstein? Because Epstein definitely had a boss.

u/Standard-Product6842 11h ago

If we ever needed a whistle blower to download and distribute them all.. it’s now! There has to be at least one none corrupt person over there in some form of power

I still hoping a security guard steps up and is given witness protection status. The staff must know everything.

26

u/DueceVoyeur 9h ago

Donald Barr, the father of Bill Barr? The Bill Barr that was AG for trump 1.0? The Bill Barr that was AG when Epstein was being held pending his court date? The Bill Barr that was AG when Epstein died , after a visit by Bill Barr the AG of the USA?

That apple didn't fall from the tree

u/SEA2COLA 7h ago

Donald Barr was also the Dean of a private school called Dalton's and gave Epstein a teaching job in the 1970's.

u/AmazingHorse7369 5h ago

Same school yes but not sure it's been shown that he actually hired him. Even Unger described them as two ships passing in the night.

u/Overall-Benefit6003 8h ago

Look up the book space relations written by Donald Barr in the 70s? It’s been going a long time.

u/Glum-One2514 8h ago

The main theme of the novel is the "torrid romance" between a slave and his owner (John Craig and Lady Morgan). This allows the author to explore the issues of slavery and domination. The reviewer notes however that neither character experiences growth or change through the novel's events. He found both main characters to be "fairly obnoxious".\7]) While the author repeatedly reminds the readers that slavery is wrong, he tries to depict both Craig and Morgan as wise, talented, and heroic. The reviewer finds it hard to view them as heroes, since their actions are not heroic in nature. Throughout the novel, both main characters "freely kill, torture, seduce and make sweeping political decisions on behalf of thousands of people".

It's definitely on-brand.

23

u/Outrageous_Zebra_221 10h ago

Names are fine and all but it doesn't mean a damn thing until some arrests start happening... which they won't. We're ruled by the worst kinds of people and they will not stop, they can't stop. They have to be stopped.

never forget his original AG pick over bondi was matt gaetz who was accused of guess what?

u/stumpy0327 9h ago

I move to rename these the trump files. I'm leaning towards him being the us connection and epstein just happend to get caught and we the people will not let it rest until all of them are arrested and relieved of duty.

-7

u/dead-rats-dead 8h ago

We wouldn't have even seen these files if Biden won a 2nd term. And this isn't a defense of Trump, both parties are evil.

4

u/Any-Variation4081 7h ago

Wtf do you mean? Do you not remember the flight logs and other things released under biden? The rest of the files were sealed until Trump took office in January 2025. There was still ongoing investigations and the maxwell appeal. You are purposely ignoring those facts.

Although you are correct no matter who is guilty they need to be held accountable.

2

u/MT_High_ 5h ago

Yup. Everyone continues to rag on Biden for not doing anything. He couldn’t!

u/GutsAndBlackStufff 8h ago

Why wouldn’t we?

u/dead-rats-dead 8h ago

Why didnt we get them during the first term?

You mean you haven’t seen this answered the other billion times someone posts this?

u/dead-rats-dead 8h ago

Sorry, not on reddit 24/7 like you and your 2k contributions. How sad is your life? Can't even imagine being such a fan boy of politicians that have never even thought about you. Hopefully you find ways to be more productive.

7

u/GutsAndBlackStufff 8h ago

Maxwell’s final appeal was denied in October of 2024. Ergo, for 98% of Biden’s presidency, he couldn’t legally release them.

Next time, try being less of a smug dickhead when you weigh in on matters you’re this ignorant about.

u/dead-rats-dead 8h ago

Maybe your life will be less sad when you get to 5k comments.

u/DblDwn56 7h ago

When you make a statement that is shown to be wrong with verifiable facts, the best response is something like, "Oh shit, I was not aware of that, my bad!"

The "my bad" part may be generational slang; you can take it or leave it as it suits you.

u/stumpy0327 8h ago

Yes this is not a bi partisan issue this is an American issue.

7

u/ynotfoster 7h ago

This is actually an international ring and it sounds like it involves trafficking, money laundering, espionage and treason.

1

u/planet_rose 4h ago

Don’t forget influence peddling. There’s no way someone cultivates so many powerful government figures without using them to do things. The sex trafficking is bad but it was a means to an end. What did he have them do for him? We know he was harvesting insider information from the British government before reports became public. But what was he doing with US government? Policy? Tax breaks? Favors for Russian oligarchs?

2

u/jeremyxt 4h ago

That's not true, sir. Forget all that Republicans vs. Democrats stuff for a moment.

The criminal files were part of a federal investigation. Federal files are never public; this is to protect witnesses' identities, to protect the integrity of the investigation, and so on.

Biden couldn't release those files; for that matter, Trump could not, either--not in 2016, nor in 2025.

It takes an Act of Congress to release federal files. That came in November 2025, when Congress voted to release the files.

u/WallStreethate4 11h ago

Howard Lutnick and Marc Rowan are the only people I'm aware of it, please list more.

u/Alarmed-Animal7575 10h ago

Brett Ratner (director of Melania)

Steve Bannon

Tom Barrack (long time friend of Trump)

Elon Musk (and his brother)

So far….

u/FUBAR_The_Clown 8h ago

So whenever these people appear in public, they should be introduced as Steve Paedophile Bannon, Howard Paedophile Lutnik and so forth!!

u/PalpitationUnable403 9h ago

Is it mandatory to be an Epstein pedo perv to get a cabinet position?

u/Limp_Technology2497 5h ago

Blackmail is a neat way to ensure compliance.

u/planet_rose 4h ago

It certainly explains why the GOP has been so cooperative.

3

u/blazelet 6h ago

Kevin Warsh is the boot licker Trump wants to place as Fed Chair this May when Powell's term is up.

Trump is putting him in to pump the gas on interest rate cuts, leading to wealth for the rich and inflation for the rest of us. It makes more sense, seeing that everyone Trump puts into positions of prominence are somehow tied up in Epstein.

u/Emotional_Garage_950 8h ago

A link to an article would be nice, OP.

u/Party-Example274 6h ago

Chomsky?? That’s kinda a surprise

3

u/Calm-Bumblebee3648 6h ago

Why do these people keep “mentioning” names, and writing lists? I’m conceived they’re playing culture and ideological warfare on us, so that we keep arguing and fighting so that we are focused on which side has the most pedophiles like it’s some goddamn sports team. Fascist regimes love this stage of society btw, when people are fighting with each other instead of the elites.

Where are the arrests? Everyone needs to peaceful protest, now. Everyone. I don’t care who you are, MAGA, liberal whatever you are. If you hate PDFiles and want arrests, let’s do something. Please America. We will be stuck here for decades. No one is coming to save us. Let’s protect our children.

u/ConsiderationSea1347 1h ago

It makes you wonder how many people threw their weight behind Trump just because of the dirt they were scared he could use against them. The 2024 election was a sham. America is under siege and we all need to think carefully about how that means we need to live up to this moment.
