Midknight Review -- new and revised: Epstein is a Democrat problem, not a Trump issue. Here is the truth on that point.

In 2008, . . . . prosecutors — led by Mr. Acosta, then the region’s United States attorney, and now Mr. Trump’s labor secretary — struck a deal with Mr. Epstein’s lawyers that allowed him to avoid federal charges. Instead, Mr. Epstein pleaded guilty to state charges of soliciting a minor for prostitution.

Under the federal charges, Mr. Epstein could have faced life in prison. After the deal, he served 13 months in jail. He had work-release privileges for six days a week, 12 hours each day, during which a private driver picked him up and took him to a nearby office. (text taken from an article in the NY Times, here),

Editor: Understand the above reference is an article explaining how it is that the Trump Administration has been associated with the Epstein scandal. Turns out that Trump's Labor Secretary, Alexander Acosta, was a prosecuting attorney back in 2008 and help engineer a proseutorial agreement that kept Epstein away from federal prosecution while finding him guilty of state charges. Epstein served time in prison because of the state charges.

Just know that Trump is not involved in this scandal. Rather, folks like Bill Clinton are the ones involved. Clinton visited Epstein's sex related homes and airplane "opportunities" more than three dozen times . . . . . he and dozens of other (mostly) Democrat folks. This is going to be a very big deal and it is just getting started as of this weekend.

Update: Because federal charges were not pursued, double jeopardy does not apply if prosecuted under federal law. But more than this, you should know that a federal judge has vacated the prosecutorial agreement dating back to 2008. In short, prosecution is a certainty and many big names will be implicated.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
