Epstein pressed for tougher questions on Ford during Kavanaugh hearings, emails show

TL;DR Summary
DOJ-released emails show Jeffrey Epstein sympathized with Brett Kavanaugh during the 2018 confirmation, urged Republicans to press Christine Blasey Ford harder, and criticized the prosecutor as a 'huge mistake,' arguing the hearing could be a trap. The messages illustrate Epstein’s close attention to the process and his ties to Kenneth Starr; there’s no evidence Kavanaugh knew Epstein, though Starr was connected to both.
