This is all in President Trumps master plan to put the Clintons in prison.
Acosta will have a confirmation hearing and at that hearing Republican senators will ask him all about Epstein and Epsteins involvement with Bill Clinton.
He will be under oath and have to tell the truth.

Thanks for the observation!
Will they ask those questions ?

Me thinks that anyone rich and or powerful enough to have caught the eye of the administration are at least through association part of the swamp. Like Diogenes looking for an honest man, I doubt we will find a Mr. Smith willing to go to Washington.
“Good.Grief. Who is advising President Trump to choose such a reprobate for his Cabinet? Anyone who has been in a Bush administration should be automatically disqualified.”

I agree - no Bushies!
Democrats should love him.
The honorable but difficult remedy for someone in those circumstances is to create a paper trail of objections or to resign. Such integrity though risks adverse career consequences.
Well,you've gotta agree that under the former Community Organizer-In-Chief a "paper trail" would be useless...laughed at,in fact.And resignation,as you said,has huge drawbacks as well.
Epstein seems like the drug dealer who got caught up in sampling the merchandise.
He must have supplied a lot of info on people to receive such a light tap on the wrist for raping all those children.
“He must have supplied a lot of info on people to receive such a light tap on the wrist for raping all those children.”
A very nasty person likely protected by even more powerful nasty, and dangerous, people.
This goes way up into the political, intelligence agency and criminal food chains.
There is a big upside though to a principled resignation: you do not have to look back knowing that you chickened out when you should have opposed dishonesty by your superiors.
Of course there is.And for lawyers that upside wouldn't necessarily come at a high cost.But this is a dog-eat-dog world and many people don't have skills that are in such high demand that they can easily change employers.The ability to feed one's family is a strong motivator.
All too true about the need to feed one’s family as an impediment to devil-take-the-hindmost courage.
