House Dem Stacey Plaskett took campaign money from Jeffery Epstein AFTER his conviction of soliciting prostitution of a minor
"If you would share this invitation with Jeffrey I'd be much appreciative. I would be grateful for his support."



Stacey Plaskett, the Democratic congressional delegate representing the US Virgin Islands, won her election in 2014. She may owe her victory in part to Jeffery Epstein's donations, which were found to have come in after his conviction of solicitation of prostitution of a minor in 2008.

The emails were revealed as part of court documents in the lawsuit the Virgin Islands filed against JP Morgan.

In a May 9 deposition, Plaskett said she met with Epstein in his New York City townhouse in September of 2018 to discuss a potential $30,000 donation to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. This meeting would occur less than a year before Epstein would be arrested on federal charges for the sex trafficking of minors that placed him in jail, where he would later be found dead.

In a June 18 appearance on MSNBC, Plaskett was heard telling the host that 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump needs "to be shot," before correcting herself and saying he needs to be "stopped."

The unsealed documents outline a decade-long association involving direct solicitations for money, personal meetings, and employment at a law firm deeply connected to Epstein's shadowy network.

Plaskett not only repeatedly sought financial contributions from Epstein and had multiple face-to-face encounters with him, but she also worked directly for a St. Thomas-based law firm that played a role in cultivating influence for Epstein's clandestine activities.

Rep. Plaskett's aide lip-synced her boss's entire speech with crazy eyes (then corrected her) and it's giving me real puppet-master vibes
