Acosta not only let a serial pedophile off easy, but he hid his leniency from Epstein’s victims and painted them as prostitutes in the process. On Wednesday, he tried to make it sound like none of it was his fault. And he never apologized to the victims. rol.st/2NNymsl
This @AnnieLowrey assessment of Alex Acosta’s record is essential, just so that you can understand why he deserves to be fired other than the fact that he let Jeffrey Epstein off the hook. Acosta also helped Trump do the same for tax cheats and polluters. on.theatln.tc/SsahbHT
