1996? Who was POTUS? Who was the atty. general?
Slick and Reno?
WHY are you just blaming a democrat? It was also Bush that let these people walk - gave them a TRUE deal of the century - with Alexander Acosta giving Epstein a slap on the wrist - and the rest of the people (including her) walk.
And what did Alexander Acosta get in return? Trump made him secretary of Labor. Did that get brought up in his hearings? YEP. So Trump knew he let these creeps walk.
Trump's number one lawyer friend and defender (it seems) - Alan Dershowitz is who orchestrated that deal and he had plenty of trips to that island. Trump shouldn't even be seen with that creep because he got Epstein off with that deal. Spare me the "he was only doing his job" line.
So peddle that partisan "they are bad - we are righteous" garbage somewhere else. There's enough filth on both parties involving these folks.
1996 Slick Willy was President.
