Del. (DEM-VI) Plaskett's Epstein Problem
People with Glass Ethics, Shouldn't Throw Stones
THIS ONE,
AND, THEN THERE IS THIS ONE.
As most of you know, I don’t agree with RFK, Jr on several of his positions, but I also am not joining in the call to censor him.
However, it seems to me that Delegate Stacey Plaskett (D-VI) should be careful about casting aspersions on other people when her ethical pool is so shallow.
The world was shocked to learn about a rich and powerful man named Jeffrey Epstein who was convicted of multiple sex crimes, including human trafficking. We still do not know about all of his customers, however, because rich and power people from politicians to presidents to princes were on that list. However, not many people know that a U.S. Virgin Islands non-voting delegate to the US Congress Stacey Plaskett, has ties to that same disgraced and disgraceful criminal. It is quite alarming to learn about her connection to Epstein, especially since she is trying to censor the voices of those who speak out against him and other problems that have arisen here in the US, mostly censorship and the out-of-control fascistic measures that accompanied Covid and the Covax.
1) Who is Stacey Plaskett? Stacey Plaskett is the non-voting representative of the U.S. Virgin Islands who was elected in 2014. She is also a former Assistant District Attorney for the borough of the Bronx in New York City. She has long been considered a rising star in the Democratic party. So, it came as a surprise when a tweet from her account called journalist Matt Taibbi a "liar" during the Twitter Files hearing. Why? Maybe because other current events Matt has tried to uncover, the “suicide” of Epstein and other aspects of his abominable practices were some of those things.

2) How is Stacey Plaskett connected to Jeffrey Epstein? Epstein had donated $10,000 to Plaskett's congressional committee, an amount only known to the public due to an accounting error.
Plaskett worked for Erika Kellerhals, Epstein’s attorney and “fixer” for two years.
According to a 23 June, 2023 Business Insider article by Jacob Shamsian:
Court filings show how Jeffrey Epstein exerted power in the US Virgin Islands, two of which he owned.
He generously donated to local politicians, including now-congresswoman Stacey Plaskett.
His consigliere was the islands' first lady, who helped him weigh in on a sex-offender law, records show.
Epstein kept up the generosity. In September that year, a consultant on Plaskett's campaign invited Epstein to two dinners on St. Thomas and St. Croix, the two main islands in the US Virgin Islands, emails show. Epstein swiftly promised he would donate the "max" but said he didn't want his name attached.
At some point in fall 2018, Plaskett visited Epstein at his Manhattan mansion. Plaskett said Groff greeted her at the foyer and brought her to Epstein, who was sitting at a long dining-room table. He agreed to give the full $30,000 that Plaskett had asked him to contribute to the DCCC.
The committee ended up rejecting the donation.
3) What is Stacey Plaskett's connection to the censorship of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.? Stacey Plaskett's connection to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. relates to RFK Jr’s testimony to Congress at the so-called Censorship hearing. There were more than one witness, yet, in her opening statement as Ranking Member, she actually called RFK Jr a “racist.” (In above video). She wanted to prevent him from testifying because he would give “misinformation” on Covid and vaccines; when it was she, and most of the political/media establishment were the ones that lied about those things, locked down a country, and advocated for forced vaccines.
4) What are the long-term implications of Stacey Plaskett's actions and connections? Stacey Plaskett's actions and connections cannot be taken lightly, as it has the potential to further, if possible, tarnish the image of the Democratic party. Come to think of it. that probably is not a bad thing. Her close connections to Epstein shed light on why she might want to silence critics, and her attempts to stifle Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s voice have serious long-term implications for democracy and free speech.
The connection between Stacey Plaskett and Jeffrey Epstein is an alarming revelation. Her attempts to silence voices of critics and stifle free speech should be a cause for concern. The Democratic party (and, also, GOP) needs to come clean about their relationship with Epstein, and impartial investigations should be launched to ascertain the truth. The world needs to know the full extent of Epstein's influence and who else might be connected to him. Finally, justice must be served for all the victims of Epstein's heinous crimes.
And the hypocrisy of Stacey Plaskett should NEVER be forgotten!

It seems the "Swamp" that Trump didn't drain has massively expanded its toxicity in the last few years. You can't believe it's possible, but we now know the lower depths are truly limitless. Never say never. With "rising stars" like this thing, people may look back in a few years and wish FOR 90-year-old Dianne Feinstein and stage paralyzed Mitch McConnell.
She also said weird things about Tuskegee during the RFK hearing, seemed to be minimizing it.
She is a vile human being, lying seems second nature to her (and to Wasserman-Schultz, two of the biggest attack dogs of the DNC).
