| − | The Epstein case first was publicized in December 2002, not quite one year after the Clintons left office and not quite four years after Democrats, on a straight party line vote, exonerated Bill Clinton in an [[impeachment]] trial focused on various [[sex]] [[crime]]s, both before taking office and while in the office of the presidency. Clinton lied under oath to a federal judge while in office in a sexual harassment suit that had been delayed for the entirety of his first term. The main Democrat talking points for the six year duration of the scandal were and public discussion was that it was "just sex," "what a person does in their personal life is nobodies' business," and sexual harassment, sexual assault, [[rape]] and [[perjury]] didn't "rise to the level of high crimes and misdemeanors." Hollywood celebrities, most notably [[Harvey Weinstein]], [[Tom Hanks]], [[Barbra Streisand]], [[Michael Douglas]], Ron Howard, [[Norman Lear]] and [[Steven Spielberg]] set up a legal defense fund for the President. This emolument was never questioned. After leaving office, Bill Clinton embarked on the debauched lifestyle he was known for but was restrained from living while in the [[White House]]. | + | The Epstein case first was publicized in December 2002, not quite one year after the Clintons left office and not quite four years after Democrats, on a straight party line vote, exonerated Bill Clinton in an [[impeachment]] trial focused on various [[sex]] [[crime]]s, both before taking office and while in the office of the presidency.

| | Like [[Hillary Clinton]], Epstein received special treatment and protection from institutional Washington. To cover up a massive scandal of international proportions involving renowned politicians, businessmen, academics and celebrities involving children, Epstein was put to work for [[Robert Mueller]] as an ]]FBI]] informant. The [[DOJ]] instructed [[Florida]] prosecutors that Epstein was a valuable intelligence asset and to let him off easy. No conspiracy charges involving other high-profile subjects were to be made. | | Like [[Hillary Clinton]], Epstein received special treatment and protection from institutional Washington.
