Miami Herald Reporter Julie Brown addresses Acosta's "defense" of his 2008 deal with Epstein

[hlthe2b]

what a lying piece of scum he is...

Except the record shows you had the evidence in 2007. Remember the 53-page indictment, the phone records, the trash pulls, the flight manifests, the witnesses who worked for Epstein?

1. His defense is a dog that won't hunt.

Nobody with an ounce of common sense is gonna buy that horse shit. Everybody knows the fix was on.

[Fritz67]

10. In other words...

...Trump voters will be the only ones that buy it. But as far as they're concerned that's all that matters.

[mobeau69]

11. It got the attention of at least on trumpon in my family.

That child rape should be punished with a slap on the wrist is hard to sell.

2. Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald, and SDNY prosecutor Geoffrey Berman aren't playing your dumb shit

game, Acosta

Also, MF45 feels "badly" for you, as he once did for Flynn, Manafort and, briefly, Cohen, so hey man, pack your shit, you're gone

3. ...

4. Julie K Brown - you are Awesome Sauce !!!!

Thank you!!!

[RockaFowler]

5. She is an incredible reporter

She has been on this case for years now. So glad we still have quality reporters in the media

[hlthe2b]

6. She's a sure bet for a Pulitzer. Well deserved...

7. The flopsweat is gonna drown him

Let’s hope it drowns every last one of them who are complicit!

They’ll be throwing each other under the bus soon, ‘cause the only bone they ever really have is the self serving one.

8. Fox is already spinning the Clinton connections.

Clinton flew a lot more on Epstein's plane than he said...Epstein was an early donator to the Clinton Foundation...etc...

[Mr.Bill]

13. Management and male on-air personalities at Fox

are probably pissed they weren't invited to the island.

[progressoid]

19. How do we know some weren't invited?

Wonder if any names will be revealed in the trial....

[Mr.Bill]

21. Yes, video of

Sean Hannity or Tucker Carlson with the 13 year old would be priceless.

[Politicub]

16. The difference between republicans and democrats: We want justice for the victims.

Let the chips fall where they may.

[progressoid]

20. Damn right. n/t

[AndJusticeForSome]

23. NO

"Trip" is not the same as "flight"

[B Stieg]

9. And again, we ask...

what is this (powerful) man hiding?

[Takket]

12. Biggest mistake in that tweet is "him" should be replaced with "me"!

[duforsure]

14. Thank You Julie Brown!

Your hard work and dedication to this story will take this predator off the streets, and hopefully other ones like him too. I'd be scared if I were Epstein , because he could have a couple of people trying to make him go away for good.

17. It should be pointed out that Epstein was allowed out of the county jail daily

instead of going to a federal prison. Money talks apparently.

[Blue_true]

18. He only spent nights and weekends there.

The other time he was allowed to work at his business.

Having wealth did make a difference.

22. award that gal a Pulitzer

yes indeed
