This document is a page from a news report (archived by the House Oversight Committee) discussing the connections between Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, and Alex Acosta. It highlights a 2002 quote from Trump praising Epstein and noting his interest in 'younger' women, which attorney Spencer Kuvin finds suspicious given Epstein's later convictions. The text also details Alex Acosta's defense of the lenient plea deal he arranged for Epstein while serving as U.S. Attorney, a topic raised during Acosta's confirmation hearings for Labor Secretary.
