Alex Acosta, left, a former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida, has faced scrutiny over a plea deal negotiated with Jeffrey Epstein, a financier who faced sex-crime charges.
The FBI wanted to arrest Jeffrey Epstein in 2007 in the U.S. Virgin Islands while he was judging a beauty contest but it did not -- in a missed opportunity the bureau's supervisory special agent was "extremely upset" about.
The new details are included in a 350-page report from the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) about the origins of how Epstein came to secure a cushy secret plea deal in 2008 that allowed the late financier to spend just 13 months in a Florida jail with the privileges of enjoying a daily work release program.
The report, obtained by Fox News, found that Marie Villafaña, who was lead prosecutor in the Florida investigation of Epstein, had "intended to file charges by May 15, 2007 and the FBI planned to arrest Epstein immediately thereafter. Villafaña, however, had not obtained authorization to indict on the schedule."

The possibility that inequalities might be a result of black culture, historical circumstance, or heritability is dismissed a priori or even ruled out of bounds. For example, research into the genetic basis of racial IQ differences will not be awarded grants from government or foundations, which makes it very difficult to pursue. The only exception to the prohibition on research into the genetic basis for racial disparities is in the medical area, where genetic explanations for racial differences for diseases such as sickle cell anemia are permitted.
Empirically testing the hypothesis that racism accounts for most or all of black disadvantage poses enormous challenges. However, because this theory has observable consequences it should in principle be possible to find evidence for or against. For instance, it implies that racial gaps will change along with changes in the prevalence of white racism. Has black underperformance decreased as overt racism in our society has declined in recent decades? Is it lower in societies in which there is less white racism (e.g., African societies)?

Joe Biden
Too much support for Donald Trump!
Even amid general declarations of a Biden victory, liberal angst - and snobbish posturing - darken nearly every op-ed, "news analysis," social media post and Twitter storm in which the Right Thinkers pontificate about the election returns.
And their message is always pretty much the same: too many Americans just don't get it. Even after months of patient lectures from Right Thinkers, assuring us all that Donald Trump is personally responsible for every American evil from slavery to the latest respiratory virus, tens of millions of the dumb clucks actually voted for him! Whatever is the world coming to?
Well, trust the liberals to have an answer ready. If substantial majorities in dozens of states across the nation still prefer The Donald to Jolly Joe, it can only mean one thing: Americans are no good.
"[T]he outsize support Trump has continued to receive exposes America's 'soul' for what it is," lamented Andre M. Perry for the Brookings Institution the morning after the election. Brittney Cooper, a professor at Rutgers University, intoned on the same day - before many of the ballots had even been counted! - that "Donald Trump is the fault of white people. His rise is a direct result of white people's collective rejection of the progress that the Obama era signaled." In an equally vindictive temper, the Boston Globe cited "Black voters" who found widespread support for Trump to be proof of "the country's failure to decisively reject racist policy," a phenomenon they found "disappointing but not surprising."

"Welcome to the program everyone, I'm Christiane Amanpour in London," she began. "This week, 82 years ago, Kristallnacht happened."
"It was the Nazis' warning shot across the bow of our human civilization that led to genocide against a whole identity and in that tower of burning books, it led to an attack of fact, knowledge, history, and truth," she continued. "After four years of a modern-day assault on those same values by Donald Trump, the Biden-Harris team pledges a return to norms, including the truth."
"And everyday, Joe Biden makes presidential announcements about good governance and the health and security of the American people," she continued. "While the great brooding figure of his defeated opponent rages, conducting purges of perceived enemies and preventing a transition."
Comment: So, don't allow police to respond to the mayhem - and then blame the victims for violence. Where have we heard that one before??

Crowds gathered in Washington, DC on November 14, 2020 in support of President Trump's reelection.
Crowds gathered in Washington, DC on November 14, 2020 in support of President Trump's reelection.
The president and his motorcade drove past the supporters, some of them waving Trump flags and holding signs saying "Stop the Fraud" and "Best Prez Ever." The crowd chanted "Four More Years!" as Trump gave a thumbs up.
Trump hinted Friday on Twitter he may attend the rally, but his motorcade Saturday was headed to his Virginia golf course instead.
Comment: As teased, Trump did make an appearance at the rally, driving a motorcade through the cheering throng:
President Trump himself drove by the rally on Saturday morning, waving at the crowds from his presidential limousine as his supporters chanted "USA, USA."In turn, Trump gave his boosters a boost:
Trump tweeted on Friday that he may "stop by and say hello," praising the "tremendous support" from his base.
The rally's organizers hope to draw thousands of people to the capital, and video footage shared on social media showed miles-long convoys of pickup trucks en route to DC.
Several Republican lawmakers and a host of right-wing pundits and celebrities - including controversial talk show host Alex Jones - are due to speak at the event.
The rally was not without problems from Black Bloc and other anarchists:

Mail-in or, in British parlance, postal voting on-demand was introduced by Labour prime minister Tony Blair in the 2000s, with one of the most notorious and egregious scandals involving its abuse breaking not long afterwards.
In 2005, Labour councillors Shafaq Ahmed, Shah Jahan, Ayaz Khan, Mohammed Islam, Muhammed Afzal, and Mohammed Kaziwere found guilty of electoral fraud after it was established that a "vote-forging factory" had been set up in a disused warehouse in Aston, Birmingham, to swing local elections to their party with postal ballots.

Portland police were bedeviled by nightly violent antifa protests.
Portland police were bedeviled by nightly violent antifa protests.
The hypocrisy is glaring, but the bigger lesson is about the damage an activist political class can do to cities all over America if they follow in Portland's foolish footsteps.
Hardesty has been a vocal advocate of Black Lives Matter and defunding the police. During a ride home, she allegedly belittled and berated her driver over a partially open window, a COVID-19 recommendation from the ride-sharing service itself. After the driver had enough of the abuse and canceled the ride, Hardesty refused to get out and called 911.
Comment: When all the sane people and the businesses pack up and leave, will Hardesty be happy with the reality she finally achieves?
