Soooooo -- about this Jeffrey Epstein article in the Miami Herald.

That specifically doesn't mention Trump except for his connection to Alexander Acosta.

But it does mention the case is sealed and all co-conspirators are forgiven and forgotten as part of the obviously-crooked deal now-Secretary of Labor Alexander Acosta made with Epstein.

And then I'm remembering Epstein being mentioned in the Jerry Sandusky case as well, and suggestions of a larger conspiracy of wealthy men acquiring children for rape from Sandusky -- usually aboard private planes.

And then I'm remembering the young woman threatened into withdrawing her lawsuit against Trump for raping her and her 13 year old friend alongside Epstein.

And then I'm thinking -- group of extremely wealthy men using power and connections to seal rape cases and threaten victims and destroy their lives -- and maybe if they're having rape parties together there might also be some co-dependent financial transactions going on, because people have to be paid off and paid for threatening and sealing cases, and all of that money has to be laundered somehow, right?

And I'm thinking -- why is the Miami Herald dredging this horrific case of injustice up years later at the very moment the Trump is experiencing Peak Shitstorm?

Who could possible unseal a legally-sealed state case? Who would have reason and the ability to go digging around in something like that tangential to money laundering and payoffs of state officials and District Attorneys who are now the Secretary of Labor?

And I'm suddenly remembering that little bit of info about Special Prosecutors having the ability to go anywhere and look at anything relevant to their charge.

Mueller doesn't leak. But -- maybe someone thought the public might appreciate being reminded of an old sealed case that everyone's sort of forgotten about that the Miami Herald says mentions unnamed co-conspirators who might have been involved in the rape of children, and maybe the Miami Herald got a little bit of heads-up about something coming down the pipeline. The story doesn't make any connections, but it implies them just between the lines.

Rings like a goddamned bell for me.

I heard that Alexander Acosta's name has been mentioned as a replacement for the AG.
