Trump backs Acosta but will look at handling of Epstein case

By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
President Donald Trump backed Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta on Tuesday but said he would look into how Acosta handled financier Jeffrey Epstein's case during his tenure as a US attorney in Florida.
"I can tell you that for two and a half years, he's been just an excellent secretary of labor. He's done a fantastic job," Trump told reporters at the White House.
He said he felt badly for Acosta, whose plea deal with Epstein in 2008 over sexual crimes has now drawn renewed scrutiny.
