🧵THREAD: Why Did Trump Hire Two Epstein-Tied Prosecutors?
Why did Donald Trump, who had a public friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, hire both Alex Acosta and Pam Bondi—two people tied to Epstein’s Florida prosecution?
Coincidence or calculated?
👇
Let’s start with Alex Acosta.
He was the U.S. Attorney in South Florida who cut that infamous sweetheart deal with Epstein in 2007—allowing a serial predator to avoid federal charges.
Instead of distancing himself, Trump made him Secretary of Labor in 2017.
Why?
Acosta later told officials:
“I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence.’”
This wasn’t addressed. No hearings, no accountability, and certainly no follow-up by the administration that hired him.
Shouldn’t that raise at least a few eyebrows?
Now enter Pam Bondi—former Florida AG. Her office also had jurisdiction during key years of Epstein-related complaints and failed to escalate the case or press for justice.
Fast forward: Trump hires her as part of his impeachment defense team in 2020.
Again: Why?
We’re not alleging anything nefarious—yet.
But we are saying that it’s weird.
Out of every possible pick for top legal roles, why two people directly tied to the most high-profile pedophile scandal in modern history?
No real answers have ever been given.
Conservatives should be the first to call out power protecting power.
We rightly blast the Clintons for flying on Epstein’s jet.
But we can’t turn a blind eye when Trump elevates the very prosecutors who let Epstein off the hook.
Even if you support Trump’s broader agenda, this is one area that demands scrutiny.
Liberty doesn’t survive when we become partisan team players who refuse to question strange decisions by “our side.”
Blind loyalty is not patriotism. It’s weakness.
No one’s saying Trump’s a co-conspirator.
But he’s no dummy either.
He knew exactly who Acosta and Bondi were—and hired them after Epstein was already a national scandal.
So the question remains:
What did he see in them that we’re missing?
The Epstein case is the litmus test for whether we’re ruled by law or ruled by elites.
And until we get real answers—not just for who flew the plane but who protected the pilot—every name and hire is fair game.
