New allegations from The Daily Beast and journalist Vicky Ward reported that Acosta told the Trump administration during the screening process for his current role that he was asked to cut a deal with Epstein because he was told the financier "belonged to intelligence," and that the issue was above his "pay grade."

As labor secretary, Acosta attempted to cut funding to a program intended to combat human trafficking abroad by 80 percent and then went to Congress in an attempt to further cut the fund.

President Donald Trump is also connected to Epstein, who spent time at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Southern Florida.

"I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy," Trump told New York magazine in 2002. "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side." But on Tuesday, the president told reporters from the White House that he was not a fan of Epstein's.
