The most interesting question is who in the GWB administration told Acosta to go easy and why?
I think lefties come primed foaming at the mouth with rage.
For the opposite view, see:

Apply critical thinking to anything the Democrat party and media does deliberately and any argument falls entirely apart in very short order.
Hey Democrats. The deep state alligators are hungry. You have been neglecting their feedings. They will eat at any risk.
My conspiracy theory:
A foreign government, friendly to the USA, used Epstein and his house and his island as a honeypot to bring powerful perverts and film/video them for blackmail. This is similar to what was alleged to be behind Hugh Hefner and the Playboy mansions, but the funding source/controller was our CIA and the targets were members of the media (remnants of Operation Mockingbird).
The Left probably feels if Epstein had been sentenced to life in federal prison, none of the D elite (”Our Faves”) would have been ensnared past his incarceration date.
That is why they are so angry at Secretary of Labor and former Federal Prosecutor Acosta.
IMHO.
Any major intelligence agency on the planet, that was *not* trying to recruit Epstein as a made to order series of lovely honey traps, for large numbers of powerful people, was not doing their job.
