A lawyer was floored on Sunday as he discussed how the GOP's scheme to ignore the deposition of a potential co-conspirator of Jeffrey Epstein's backfired on the president. Last week, the House Oversight Committee held a nearly five-hour deposition of Leslie Wexner, the former CEO of Victoria's Secret. Not a single Republican attended the deposition hearing, where Wexner denied any involvement in Epstein's crimes and argued that he was "conned" out of the nearly $200 million that he paid Epstein for real estate and tax services throughout their relationship. Wexner's name also appears on a document released by the Department of Justice listing him as a potential co-conspirator of Epstein's, according to reports. Wexner has denied any wrongdoing. Former Florida state attorney Dave Aronberg discussed how the GOP's attempt to downplay the deposition backfired on the party during an interview on the "All Rise News" podcast with Adam Klasfeld on Sunday. "This is a story that just has legs because of Trump and their drip, drip, drip instead of just ripping the band-aid off," Aronberg said. " ... It's a self-inflicted wound, and the more they try to conceal and redact, the more interest people have in this. So, I am not surprised that we are here talking about this because it only seems to be getting worse." Wexner's deposition also appeared to undercut some key claims about Epstein that President Donald Trump has made, like that nobody knew who Epstein was until after he died. "It's hard to say that Jeffrey Epstein was just a normal finance guy and no one knew about his secret life," Aronberg said. "There was no secret life. That's who Jeffrey Epstein was. Donald Trump said so in New York magazine, where he said, 'He likes to have fun as much as I do. He likes him on the young side.' Well, that's what everyone knew about Jeffrey Epstein at the time because he walked around openly and notoriously with a harem."
