#1: US Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Ranking Member of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (PSI) can hold public hearings about Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. His committee won't have subpoena powers to compel testimony since Democrats are in the minority; however, Senator Blumenthal can invite witnesses to testify before Congress. Such witnesses would include the AUSA, FBI agents, West Palm Beach and NYC police officers that investigated Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein, as well as their victims. All of them would have to voluntarily appear at the hearings. Alex Acosta would be invited, but of course he will decline.
C-SPAN would cover the hearings and their testimony will be permanently enshrined into Congressional (AKA public) records.

"The Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations is the Committee's chief investigative subcommittee and has the responsibility of studying and investigating the efficiency and economy of operations relating to all branches of the government. The Subcommittee is also tasked with studying and investigating the compliance or noncompliance with rules, regulations and laws, investigating all aspects of crime and lawlessness within the United States which have an impact upon or affect the national health, welfare and safety, including syndicated crime, investment fraud schemes, commodity and security fraud, computer fraud, and the use of offshore banking and corporate facilities to carry out criminal objectives.">/blockquote>

Well, sure. Alex Acosta knows nothing about this Epworth guy, and as a former cabinet member must be given deference and respect. Now, The Clintons are a different matter. They are certainly guilty of something, and probably were directly involved with Jim Epworth's murder. They need to be arrested and forced to testify... --Mentally ill orange-faced man, defeating his arguments while making them

Acosta left off huh?
Shocker.
Goober Comer is running another show trial only to try to clear Creamsicle Caligula and not interested in truth whatsoever.

Alex Acosta worked for a GOP administration when he let EPSTEIN off the hook, with benefits. Then he was rewarded by another GOP regime, Trump's. A cabinet position. Until EPSTEIN blew up in his face. Then he was out again. Why isn't Alex Acosta getting subpoenaed? Oh, riiiight ...
TRUMP EPSTEIN MAXWELL
A trifecta of sleaze that just keeps giving.
