Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta will hold a press conference to address questions about his decade-old plea deal with billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein
Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta will hold a press conference today to address questions about his decade-old plea deal with billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — but the embattled Cabinet secretary has no plan to resign, according to a DOL official.
The press conference comes after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called on Acosta to step down. Acosta said he supported the New York prosecutors’ decision even as he defended the earlier plea agreement. He has argued that the Epstein case was handed to him after a state grand jury recommended an even lesser charge, and has said the decision to grant Epstein daily furloughs to his office was made after the plea deal by the state of Florida.
