it helps to make sure you can have your war if you can guarantee none of the valuable people will be lost…

Agreed. There's been rumors for a very long time now that there's been a pedo ring operating at the highest levels of the rich and powerful, and it appears that Epstein was the procurer. Which explains his sentence, and the cover up of his clients.

WE haven't heard from Epstein's sexual morality lawyer, Ken Starr, on this. I wonder why.

There are assholes on both sides. But only the GOP has made being one the party platform.

I assume Acosta gave Epstein the sweetheart deal for all the usual banal, evil reasons: money, influence, perhaps Acosta participated in the sex trafficking ring himself. The more interesting question to me is why he got rewarded with a cabinet position by Trump.

I remember reading back then that Shitferbrains had something to do with the oily settlement. I could see that: Shitferbrains rides in on his donkey and fronts the money for the deal. (He's got more than one reason for doing this, since he was likely involved in the minorfucking). As a result, He owes Acosta, (and maybe the court and defense counsel). Dershowitz,Starr, Epstein and the rest get a payday, and owe The Orange Asshole a favor, which he is now in the process of collecting.

Maybe they'll get around to taking the statements of the victim's lawyers, under oath. Not covered by attorney client privilege since their clients hold the privilege.
