Releasing additional Epstein files to distract the public from the government shutdown has backfired on the Democrats. Email evidence has revealed that Trump’s political opponents utilized Epstein’s blackmail services to destroy the president—in real time.
The latest truth bomb shows that a member of Congress was text messaging Epstein during a February 2019 House Oversight hearing in which Michael Cohen testified about Donald Trump. Democratic Virgin Islands Del. Stacey Plaskett knew that Epstein had information on Michael Cohen, Trump’s attorney, and colluded with Epstein to shape the narrative of the investigation. “Hes [sic] opened the door to questions re who are the other henchmen at trump org,” Epstein messaged Plaskett During the hearing. Plaskett replied, “Yup. Very aware and waiting my turn.”
Epstein listened in and watched a livestream of the hearing to coach Plaskett on how to respond. He jokingly asked her why she was chewing gum, a nod that he was indeed watching in real-time. “Cohen brought up RONA – keeper of the secrets,” Epstein warned. “RONA?? Quick I’m up next is that an acronym. [sic],” Plaskett replied.
Plaskett then used that information to coerce Cohen into providing names. Her messages to Epstein align with the timing she was on the microphone. Epstein’s former properties on Little St. James and Great St. James were in Plaskett’s district and the two had close ties. How many high-profile hearings was Plaskett answering on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein? Epstein was clearly hired by the Democrats to take down Trump.
Six of Epstein’s victims named Plaskett in a November 2023 lawsuit. The congresswoman and others, including former Governors John de Jongh Jr. and Kenneth Mapp, First Lady Cecile de Jongh, Attorney General Vincent Frazer, and Senator Celestino White, were named in the lawsuit and accused of using their political influence to help Epstein Island operate outside of US law. The women believed Epstein was influencing regulatory agencies and law enforcement officials with the help of his Democratic friends. The case against Plaskett was later voluntarily dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled.
How much influence did Jeffrey Epstein have over US politics? Who had him on their payroll? Epstein was a Democrat who made contributions to Democratic candidates. He befriended everyone and anyone with influence and used it to his advantage. No one voted for Jeffrey Epstein to be an elected member of Congress. This scandal is an absolute national embarrassment and those involved must be prosecuted.
