Ventura digs into the growing Epstein scandal on the newest episode of The World According to Jesse.

The new case has already led to downfall of Alexander Acosta, who was a federal prosecutor behind the Epstein plea deal in 2008. Acosta was forced to resign as Labor Secretary back in July, as questions about his handling of the first Epstein case piled up.
