Is the not-so-dangerous amazon fire the intended distraction from Epstein?

Some context on the fire for those who haven't really followed any of this yet [link to phys.org (secure)]

Also to mention the fire is being amplified from the dust storms a GLP'er actually pointed out were affecting the region

This is apparently not really that big of an issue though as it happens regularly, so why is it this one single time becoming so important?
