and obviously at some point he did know, bill clinton, what we know is what bill clinton spokesperson has admitted, they had four foreign trips. they met in each others -- in bill clinton's office and in jeffrey epstein's mansion where some of the allegations of abuse appear to have taken place. and they also, foxnews.com uncovered a time when they met in 1995 which bill clinton's staff did not admit to, so it seems like this was rampant in jeffrey epstein's social circle and seems unlikely that anybody associated with him could not know. >> tucker: is there any other explanation? has bill clinton talked about why he spent so much time with jeffrey epstein? >> jeffrey epstein was giving him money, he got $25,000 to the clinton foundation, he said that he helped devise the clinton initiative and post-presidency plans. we know that there are other connections that was not just necessary to have fun, but perhaps as well. it is worth exploring. to the funny thing is we have known about this for a long time. jeffrey epstein was first busted in 2006. all of a sudden now is when they are ask

including ken starr, the lawyer who had investigated bill clinton. what we found was that there were a lot of letters exchanged between two where they were trying to get acosta to knock two of his own prosecutors off the case as well as even say the case itself was overreaching. when that didn't work, they appealed to the criminal division at doj in washington. also to the child exploitation central and ultimately to the deputy attorney general's office one of their arguments was that this case was only a state case. it shouldn't happen. they suggested it was politically motivated because epstein had a close association with bill clinton. so that's one of the arguments they made. in the end, this was a case that resulted in no prosecution. so the deal even that they were arguing about did not result in federal charges. it was a nonprosecution agreement. the representative from the jag's office did respond to the lawyers saying they felt the prosecution was, quote, appropriate. >> when acosta, alex acosta was asked to look back on the handling of the

>> bill clinton's case it is already emerged because he's on the flight manifest, the written flight manifest that came out a few years ago. so his -- his role -- what we don't know what the role was, but it absolutely is possible and -- and christine pelosi said, this isn't one of the things. it is important not to take political sized on this. these are young girls who are thrown away by florida prosecutors or federal prosecutors a couple of years ago when they gave him that sweetheart deal. >> do you think acosta is in trouble. >> it is hard to tell. the president seems to still show support for him. we heard the president and asked him questions yesterday on the tarmac in new jersey about this and he's taking a hands off approach and saying i know nothing about this and this is a long time ago but when it comes to the prosecutors to show oversight, it does seem like acosta will be on the hot seat because his role in this case almost a decade ago looks much worse now that you have new federal prosecutors coming in and -- behind him and seeming to clean up after him and doing what

here one name that seems conspicuously absent is bill clinton. we are learning first of all that clinton took a number of flights, a lot more than we thought, to epstein's sex islan island. >> laura: i want to put this out here before you finish that thought, clinton's team put out a statement that in part read what dinesh is talking about, he took a total of four trips on epstein's airplane. but the "washington examiner" reporting tonight that the flight logs revealed clinton took 27 flights on epstein's private jets at least six different trips some of which were without secret service agents. how much coverage, dinesh, will this gets? >> what do we know about clinton? number one, we know he's a liar, number two, we know he's a predator. we know this from independent evidence. this is worth looking into. while the media focused on trump and the cost, the clintons, who have eluded the posse for 40 years, are not even being called to account on this one pair there is a photo on social media of maxwell, the procurer of young women for jeffrey epst

there were discrepancies on other matters with bill clinton. he said he was only on two flights, four, turns out there were six. the secret service was always with him. it turns out they weren't always with him when he was on epstein's plane. i wouldn't throw yourself into a bill clinton on this necessarily. >> let's talk about al gore. she claims that al gore was on the island. not only did they not know jeffrey epstein but guess who al gore's lawyer was? david boyce, the same lawyer who claims that this woman made these improper allegations. he could've easily called his client, al gore, and said, were you ever on jeffrey epstein's island? and he would've told her what he told everyone else. no. he was never on the island, didn't know anyone at all. the interesting thing is that epstein is being prosecuted now and they are not using this witness. the fbi and the u.s. attorney's office are not using this witness. >> laura: does she have the same lawyer? does she have that same lawyer that you said you have on tape? still representing her? >> y

bill clinton, these flights, i thought it was pretty curious bill clinton used the excuse of his staff being around as if that ever been a barrier. this story has a long way to go. and it's now the concentric circles around epstein that are going to be investigated. >> annie karni has something. go ahead. >> let me guess that would be a reason why this white house would want to distance itself from this story as quickly and decisively as possible. does the white house want to have this be an ongoing story about their administration because as the blast radius of this story expands, donald trump is there, and this will bring back some of the worst moments of his campaign. it will track with a lot of the concerns about donald trump. as you point out, the me too movement was huge. when you're talking about industrial grade pedophilia, there's not going to be the kind of tribal divide over this. >> are you sure? >> well, we haven't seen it so far. so the question is -- >> robert acosta just said democrats are expected to grill him on capitol hill. >> i will give credit, penny nantz, no one

how far their friendship goes back and whether bill clinton bill clinton is escaping scrutiny on these issues as a result of his status. but in terms of the press conference yesterday, these cases are very, very difficult. my take away from the press conference was that secretary acosta argued that yes, we could have taken this to federal trial, but the bil bar r beyond a reasonable doubt is very high. based on the witness testimony and those actually corroborating his side of the story, they thought trial would not be a slam dunk. they wanted to make sure that he was registered out of dominic as a sex offender, there are a lot of inconsistencies with the story, both out of the local office in florida and the federal office. as acosta cited yesterday, these decisions were not made solely by him but as a team. he cited his lead prosecutor on the case, so we will see if he can hold onto his cabinet seat and whether this serves as a distraction. we are focused on the actions of secretary acosta ten years ago, rather than the horrific dreams of jeffrey epstein. >> bill: he did not give up

prediction, will we learn anymore about the clintons, yes or no, in the involvement of bill clinton here? >> let's remember, either thee newer prosecutor, they are in the clinton camp, they would be reluctant to focus on clinton. the clinton foundation is shielding material. digital media has been scrubbing pictures of bill clinton and epstein on the web, there has then troubling efforts. >> laura: scrubbing the record, thanks. megan rapinoe, we'll talk about it with raymond arroyo. seen and unseen next. >> laura: it's time for our seen and unseen segment where we expose big cultural stories of the day. megan rapinoe is a little -- politicizing cultural consequences in a story of a gas e-filing? joining us with all these details is raymond arroyo. it seems like she's gone into full -- i don't know, is a demon mode? but people criticize everyone. even at today's u.s. soccere world cup parade in new york, it was... i thought there was no i in team. remember that? >> apparently there is. there is no doubt, rapinoe and her team are indisputable champions. but watch how she made herself a nam

there's a new statement from bill clinton out overnight. let me read that. president clinton knows nothing about the terrible climbs jeffrey epstein pleaded guilty -- claims jeffrey epstein pleaded guilty to. in 2002, 2003, president clinton took four trips on jeffrey epstein's airplane, one to europe, asian, two to africa, which included stops in connection with with the wothe clinton foundation. the wording of the statement in question, he took four trips but people say there were many more flights involved within those trips, and this is just the tip of it in terms of who epstein was running around with. >> i think the core of this is that he ran in circles of powerful people regardless of their party affiliation. ig it w i thought it was interesting to see the u.s. attorney and how florida handled the case years ago as well. secretary acosta thus far has been very defensive, with regards to how he handled the case, then said that he dealt with it, in thhis view, appropriately. it is interesting to see the connections not only to bill clinton, but obvious

you have the clinton statement about bill clinton going on four trips. now there's reports of the flight manifest being 26 flights. you'll see all kinds of different elements come out tied to this case. the people down in miami, the people in florida, know how those families were feeling when this plea deal was struck. so i think capitol hill will get more involved. we'll see if secretary acosta can hold on. it's only -- pressure will only build from here. >> dana: indeed. switch gears and one other topic with you, this is about this whether there will be a citizenship question on the census. speaker pelosi weighing in. listen to what she had to say yesterday. >> this is about keeping -- you know his hat? make america with it again. they want to make sure that people, certain people, are counted. it's really disgraceful. it's not what our founders had in mind. >> dana: the attorney general, bill barr had this to say. >> yes, you know, we've been considering all the options. i've been in constant discussions with the president ever since the supreme court

and bill clinton's relationship with epstein, for that matter. >> well, i don't know that that has been associated with any of the charges in florida or now in new york. his association with either of those presidents. so i wouldn't necessarily say that is relevant evidence at that point. we're talking about the human scale of this. there is plenty of evidence to lead to this indictment. >> let's turn to the upcoming testimony of robert mueller. house democrats, they're strategizing right now how best to approach these hearings. get the most out of them. do you have any advice for them? >> you've covered a lot of these. do you know what one hour comes down to? >> that's because the lawmakers like to make speeches as opposed to asking concise important questions. >> that's true. but most good questioning requires some follow-up. if i have five minutes, i'd better be darn lucky with the follow-up to get to it. >> cannot they change the rules and decide that one or two members would have 20 or 30 minutes to do it? as opposed to five minutes for individual members? and then have some staffe

and i also recognize that 1325 is unnecessary, because reagan didn't use it, because bill clinton didn't really use it. because for 70, 60 years, these administrations didn't use it even though it was there. so, here's what's interesting to me. i mean, as soon as you said this -- right? -- the next night, the majority of democraticandidates came out and aligned themselves with your position. what's so interesting to me about the way this debate developing in this contemporary moment is how different it is from democrats in the past. i want to show you a clip just to help you see that point that all americans, not only in the states most heavily affectea but in every in this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country. >> illegal immigration is wrong, plain and simple. >> protecting public safety and deporting dangerous criminals has been and will remain, the top priori but we are going to refocus our efforts where we can to me sure we do what it tak to keep our borders secure. >> what has change in the last few years? >> well, one thing that

epstein was apparently very close to bill clinton and they want nothing to do with it. these poor women who were underaged. they were allegedly abused. that's where the focus should be on. thank you, guys have much. -- very much. til ahead, a classic.

among others, president trump, president bill clinton. trump quotes new york magazine again, "i've known jeff for 15 years, terrific guy, a lot of fun to be with. it's even been said he likes beautiful women as much as i do, and many of them are on the younger side." making light of this, it seems. obviously that quote isn't today, but in light of what we've known about epstein. bill clinton puts out a statement tonight acknowledging four flights on epstein's private jet but saying he knew nothing about anything that epstein was doing. does all that add up to you? >> i guess it sort of says a lot about our society and that somebody who has this reputation as has been reported elsewhere can nonetheless ingratiate himself with the wealthy and powerful, and it's disappointing to see. and maybe one of those connections, not trump or clinton necessarily, but is why this is being handled by the public corruption unit. >> we just don't know whether those relationships are relevant to it or not at this point. harry, thank you very much. out front

. >> jesse: that is a good point, you saw the president mentioned not by name, but potentially bill clinton flying around in a jet, we want to know did he go to that island that a lot of nefarious things were happening? >> greg: island they call it. >> jesse: we saw the president taking 26 trips, and actually says that this was four trips, and there is some on flights, but shouldn't the media and democrats be concerned if bill clinton was palling around with out secret service with a pedophile. >> juan: that is not what they have said in their statement, republicans are running away from the fact that this guy knew president trump. >> greg: it is about a republican. >> juan: it is about president trump. >> greg: he is a democratic donor. he has a donor. >> juan: i am telling you that he is the labor secretary. acosta. >> jesse: not epstein. i'm asking you about epstein, and you are talking about trump. >> juan: because i am talking about the resignation. >> jesse: are you concerned about bill clinton's relationship? >> juan: i'm concerned. okay. >> jesse: not a lot of, everybody is investig

bill clinton further below that. then suddenly in july, and people never quite understood why, got back in and october. he had enough support, but dramatically lower supporter. he had gotten in, got an outcome then back in. the president of the united states, the democratic nominee, bill clinton, in the three debates. and a lot of people think that had he never gotten out, he might have been elected president. he was one of the most successful third-party candidates ever. he got 19% of the vote. in the final election. the winner-take-all election system, did not win a single electoral vote, but as for getting out of the race in july, he would have had a real serious chance to be elected president. >> sandra: very interesting to look back at the man, described as a family man he was a billionaire. he rose from poverty and became one of the wealthiest men in this country. as ed rollins was just joking, he was always very frugal. he was always pinching pennies. and this is a man who dramatically changed the landscape of

epstein was also friends with former president bill clinton. >> bill clinton's office released its own statement. president clinton knows nothing about the terrible crimes jeffrey epstein pleaded guilty to. >> clinton acknowledges he flew four times on epstein's private jet in 2002 and 2003. shante davis was a flight attendant on the jet known as the elite express because it allegedly shuttled underwaged girls between epstein's homes. she told inside edition clinton did nothing improper on those trips. she said she made him peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. ( laughter ) >> trevor: you know, i'm glad the news got her to reenact the making of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, just so we all foe what that looks like. that was nice. ( laughter ) clearly, this was a man who had a lot of connections. it night explain how he got away with those heinous crimes for so long and, with these new charges being filed against him, many are wondering who he might bring down with him. over the coming weeks, the story is going to unfold. there's a good chance a lot of questions are going to be answe

as bill clinton's pollster in 1996. the most of important person who wasn't in the room was ross perot. we did a deal with newt gingrich and the republicans to balance the budget. why? because of the perot vote and most of of all ross perot. trish: i think there are similarities between him and between donald trump. doug wead, when you look at him from a historical perspective, i am sure you agree with what doug schoen was just saying. it seems that both of these men were able to sell an economic message that was palatable. they reduced it to the way normal people talk, and people cared. >> absolutely. i was work as special assistant to the president, george h.w. bush, the incumbent president running against bill clinton when ross perot jumped in. in 1992 i got a phone call from george w. bush. he called me and said dad thinks it's going to be ross perot, bill clinton is out. they were convinced and our data showed ross perot would be president of the united states. but he went cuckoo on us and held a press conference a

whether it's donald trump, bill clinton, al gore, alan dershowitz. just because they knew the guy. >> chris, i've got to jump in. i'm not saying guilt by association. what do you want me to invite you on and not ask you the questions about what's in the news about someone who got a sweetheart deal from -- >> but if you keep on saying some pedophile who's -- my experience with donald trump is if he sees somebody as a bad apple, whether they're doing something perverted like this or -- he will stay as far away from those people as possible. it's come out in press reports. i'm not knowledgeable. but as soon as they heard about some of this they said he wasn't allowed at mar-a-lago. i never even knew he'd been to mar-a-lago. >> they said it was because of the federal charges against him, that they revoked his membership. >> even before that i had been a member of the club i had never seen him there and nobody had even mentioned his name. so the idea that donald trump is somehow associated with this guy is just -- he knew the guy. he knew him socially. he

bill clinton, obviously is going to face scrutiny as a result of this. this is a particularly dangerous area for this particular president. we just had an allegation a couple weeks ago by an author who says that he sexually assaulted her in the dressing room of a clothing store. the more this kind of focus is out there, the more it's distracting him from the things he wants to do as he heads into an election year. >> counselor, rescue us and take us back into the legal realm. what do you make of the deal that acosta as u.s. attorney agreed to in florida that led in many ways to this case we're talking about tonight? >> it was an extremely unusual deal. both the content of it, if you will, and the process that led to it, being put into effect. the content is unusual because it's extremely lenient. notwithstanding the fact that his office had apparently prepared a draft of 50 pains of serious felony charges, that indictment wasn't filed and instead what the deal provided was that epstein would plead guilty to florida state charges that resulted in him serv
