    Epstein Files Unsealed: Alex Acosta And His Epstein Interview With OIG Inspectors (Part 18) (1/19/26)
    Jan 19 2026
    In his interview with the DOJ Office of the Inspector General, Alex Acosta repeatedly framed the 2007–2008 Epstein non-prosecution agreement as a constrained, pragmatic decision made under pressure rather than a deliberate act of favoritism. He told inspectors that Epstein’s defense team, stacked with politically connected and aggressive lawyers, created what he described as a credible threat of a federal indictment collapse if prosecutors pushed too hard. Acosta emphasized that his office believed securing some conviction at the state level was better than risking none at all, and he claimed he was focused on avoiding a scenario where Epstein walked entirely. Throughout the interview, Acosta leaned heavily on the idea that the deal was the product of risk assessment, limited evidence, and internal prosecutorial judgment rather than corruption or improper influence, repeatedly asserting that he acted in good faith.


    At the same time, the OIG interview exposed glaring gaps and evasions in Acosta’s account, particularly regarding victims’ rights and transparency. He acknowledged that victims were not informed about the existence or finalization of the NPA, but attempted to downplay this as a procedural failure rather than a substantive violation of the Crime Victims’ Rights Act. Acosta also distanced himself from the unusual secrecy of the agreement, suggesting that others in his office handled victim communications and specific drafting decisions. Most damaging, however, was his inability to offer a coherent justification for why Epstein received terms so extraordinary that they effectively shut down federal accountability altogether. The interview left the unmistakable impression of a former U.S. Attorney attempting to launder an indefensible outcome through bureaucratic language, while avoiding responsibility for a deal that insulated Epstein and his network from meaningful scrutiny for more than a decade.

    Mega Edition: Sarah Ransome And The Op-Ed In The Washington Post (1/19/26)
    Jan 19 2026
    In her Washington Post op-ed, Sarah Ransome recounts how surviving Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s trafficking operation did not end with their convictions but instead marked the beginning of another battle: being disbelieved, dismissed, and blamed because she was an adult when she was trafficked. Ransome explains that media coverage often centers on underage victims while overlooking the many women who, like her, were legally adults yet manipulated, coerced, and abused over prolonged periods. She describes the pervasive “gaslighting” she faced from society, friends, family, and authorities who questioned her credibility, branded her with derogatory labels, and minimized the horrors she endured simply because she was not a minor at the time. For years, this skepticism compounded her trauma, making recovery even more difficult and isolating her from support.


    Ransome also reflects on the catharsis of hearing Ghislaine Maxwell’s shackles at sentencing and finally reading her impact statement in court, which she views as a significant step toward reclaiming her voice and self-worth. She emphasizes that justice remains incomplete while powerful enablers and institutions that allowed Epstein and Maxwell to operate with impunity have not been fully held accountable. Ransome urges broader recognition of all survivors — regardless of age at the time of abuse — and calls for societal change in how adult trafficking victims are understood and supported.

  • Mega Edition: The Ex Boyfriend Of Virginia Roberts And His Deposition (1/19/26)

    Mega Edition: The Ex Boyfriend Of Virginia Roberts And His Deposition (1/19/26)
    Jan 19 2026
    James Michael Austrich—identified in deposition documents as a former boyfriend of Virginia Roberts (now Virginia Giuffre)—testified about their relationship in the late 1990s. He offered insights into Roberts' employment at Mar-a-Lago and detailed her interactions with Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein during that time period. Austrich corroborated key aspects of Giuffre’s testimony, including how she came into contact with Maxwell and was subsequently introduced to Epstein. His hearing provides supporting context for Giuffre’s allegations about recruitment, travel, and grooming, reinforcing the broader narrative of Epstein’s network beyond Giuffre’s own account

    Austrich’s deposition also addressed logistical details—dates, movements, and living situations—that helped frame the timeline of Giuffre’s experiences. While he did not testify about sexual abuse directly, his recollections bolster Giuffre’s broader claims that Maxwell facilitated Roberts' entry into Epstein’s orbit. By corroborating aspects of Giuffre’s presence at Epstein-linked locations and confirming Maxwell’s involvement in arranging those introductions, Austrich’s testimony added credibility to the factual foundation of the case—and further undermined Maxwell’s defamatory denials.

  • Mega Edition: What Did Jamie Dimon Know About Jeffrey Epstein And When Did He Know It? (1/18/26)

    Mega Edition: What Did Jamie Dimon Know About Jeffrey Epstein And When Did He Know It? (1/18/26)
    Jan 19 2026
    Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, has repeatedly denied any meaningful knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal behavior, portraying himself as distant from the relationship despite Epstein being a longtime, high-profile client of the bank. Dimon has claimed he was unaware of Epstein’s sex-trafficking activities and has suggested that responsibility lay with lower-level compliance staff rather than senior leadership. Critics argue this position strains credibility, given Epstein’s 2008 federal conviction, his well-known reputation in elite circles, and the sheer volume of internal red flags tied to his accounts. Under Dimon’s leadership, JPMorgan continued to bank Epstein for years after his conviction, processing transactions that later became central to allegations that the bank enabled or ignored obvious signs of trafficking and abuse.

    Dimon’s denials have come under sharper scrutiny as internal emails, testimony, and court filings have suggested that Epstein’s risk profile was widely known inside JPMorgan and that concerns reached far beyond rogue employees. Survivors and regulators argue that the bank’s leadership cannot plausibly claim ignorance while simultaneously benefiting from Epstein’s wealth, connections, and influence. Dimon’s insistence that he personally knew little or nothing about Epstein has been criticized as a calculated effort to firewall executive accountability, shifting blame downward while preserving the myth of corporate ignorance. To critics, his statements exemplify a broader pattern in which powerful institutions acknowledge “mistakes” in the abstract but resist admitting that profit and prestige outweighed moral and legal responsibility when it mattered most.

  • The Department Of Justice And Their Argument To Keep El Chapo Behind Bars (Part 16)

    The Department Of Justice And Their Argument To Keep El Chapo Behind Bars (Part 16)
    Jan 19 2026
    Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the former leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, has had his appeal to overturn his 2019 life sentence rejected by a U.S. court. Guzman was convicted on charges including drug trafficking, operating a criminal enterprise, and firearms violations. His legal team argued that his trial was unfair due to jury misconduct and the harsh conditions of his solitary confinement, which they claimed impacted his ability to mount a defense.

    Despite these arguments, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the original verdict, praising the trial judge's management of the high-profile case and rejecting the claims of juror misconduct. The court also dismissed the argument regarding Guzman's solitary confinement, stating it did not infringe on his right to a fair trial.

    In this episode, we take a look at the DOJ's El Chapo Brief.
