Burn It Down: The Epstein Depositions and the Hypocrisy of Power

from Political Malpractice · host Political Malpractice

Trigger Warning: This episode contains candid discussions of sexual assault, child abuse, and trauma. Listener discretion is advised.This week on Political Malpractice, we are taking a midweek detour to dig into the long-awaited Epstein files and the absolute circus that is the House Oversight Committee depositions. Sasha and Chris are taking zero prisoners as they break down the bipartisan hypocrisy, the "plausible deniability" playbook, and the powerful people—from the Clintons to Trump, and billionaires like Lex Wexner—who are desperately trying to cover their tracks.We discuss why the depositions feel more like a protective shield for the elite than a quest for justice, and why the two-party system is completely failing the victims who deserve real accountability.Beyond the political theater, things get incredibly real. Sasha and Chris open up about their own personal experiences with sexual assault, the visceral reality of how society treats survivors, and why "just an allegation" is never just an allegation. It's time to stop treating this like a team sport and start burning the corruption down.In this episode, we cover:·       The House Oversight Committee's frustratingly redacted and chaotic depositions.·       The "sick notes" and free passes given to high-ranking officials to avoid testifying.·       Breaking down the big names in the files: The Clintons, Donald Trump, Lex Wexner, Elon Musk, and more.·       The legal realities of prior bad acts and what an "adjudicated abuser" actually means.A raw, unfiltered conversation on surviving assault and the justice system's failure to protect women and children.
