Bobby CapucciHOST
As far as you know, was former Attorney General Gonzalez required to physically come in for his deposition as you are today? That is not true either.
Bobby CapucciHOST
It was Mukasey and Philippe.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Mukasey was the interim in 2007.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And Gonzalez didn't come in until 2008.
Bobby CapucciHOST
They don't even know what they're talking about, the senators and the congresspeople.
Bobby CapucciHOST
He don't make decisions like this.
Bobby CapucciHOST
He had to kick that up the chain to Mukasey and the rest of them.
Bobby CapucciHOST
So they all failed from the top down, from the federal government all the way down to the state.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And now all the way back to this judge.

Bobby CapucciHOST
Andrew wants nothing to do with it.
Bobby CapucciHOST
We know he's hiding in his hole behind his lawyers right now, like the coward he is.
Bobby CapucciHOST
None of this would be necessary if Acosta and Krischer had done their jobs more than a decade ago, and Mukasey and Philippe and the rest of them.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Acosta resigned last year as U.S. Secretary of Labor and has not reemerged in public life.
Bobby CapucciHOST
and resulted in new federal charges on sex trafficking.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Thanks to a sweetheart deal from Alex Acosta, you mean from the federal government of the United States, Mukasey and the rest of them as well as Acosta, who announced Friday morning that he would resign from his position as U.S. Labor Secretary amid criticism of the plea deal, Epstein only served 13 months in county jail and was granted work release, The deal was kept sealed, including from his survivors.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Now, we know that that is just completely out of line as well.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And as an attorney general over here in New Mexico or anywhere else looking at this case, you would think that that would launch you into action, right? Oh, shit.
Bobby CapucciHOST
and resulted in new federal charges on sex trafficking.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Thanks to a sweetheart deal from Alex Acosta, you mean from the federal government of the United States, Mukasey and the rest of them, as well as Acosta, who announced Friday morning that he would resign from his position as U.S. Labor Secretary amid criticism of the plea deal.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Epstein only served 13 months in county jail and was granted work release.
Bobby CapucciHOST
The deal was kept sealed, including from his survivors.
Bobby CapucciHOST
But no, of course not.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Mukasey, Philippe, they just walk.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And Acosta, he's nothing more than the fall guy.
Bobby CapucciHOST
The review, which determined that Acosta exhibited poor judgment in his handling of the Epstein deal, relied substantially on internal government emails as well as communication between the prosecutors and Epstein's team of high-profile lawyers to reach its conclusion.
Steve CalabresiGUEST
Yeah, it's Department of Labor against Sun Valley Orchards.
Steve CalabresiGUEST
And the amicus brief is signed not only by former Attorney General Ed Meese, but also by former Attorney General Michael Mukasey, who worked for President George W. Bush, and by my friends Gary Lawson and Ahmed Vora.
Steve CalabresiGUEST
And in this case, Sun Valley Orchards was a small business in New Jersey.
Steve CalabresiGUEST
that harvested vegetables, which is very labor-intensive work.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Barr's testimony is part of a wider bipartisan investigation into the handling of Epstein's case, which has also reached several former attorney generals, FBI directors, and former first couple Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Bobby CapucciHOST
While it didn't reach the people that it needed to reach the most, Alex Acosta, Philippe, Mukasey, Villafana, Menchel, and everybody else involved.
Bobby CapucciHOST
But sure, tell us about this complete investigation that you're engaging in and all these people that you're calling up to Congress to give depositions who have nothing to do with what went on.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And here's my prediction.
Bobby CapucciHOST
He don't make decisions like this.
Bobby CapucciHOST
He had to kick that up the chain to Mukasey and the rest of them.
Bobby CapucciHOST
So they all failed from the top down, from the federal government all the way down to the state.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And now all the way back to this judge.
Bobby CapucciHOST
She was initially identified as a potential co-conspirator in the case against Epstein, but was never charged.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Yeah, because Philippe and Mukasey came in and said no.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Do you really think that they didn't have the goods on all these people? They did.
Bobby CapucciHOST
We've seen the evidence.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Down here in Florida, at least.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And at the federal level, when we're talking about Mukasey and the others...
Bobby CapucciHOST
And then we wonder why Epstein doesn't get punished like the rest of us would.
Bobby CapucciHOST
How many of you gotten an invite to go play around the 18 with insert federal official here? We believe that the content of our probable cause affidavit eventually, sometime after we presented it to the state's attorney's office, ended up with the defense attorney's, Ryder said, because minute details that nobody else knew that were in those documents were being refuted and contrary information provided by the defense.
