Republicans Fight To Censure Stacey Plaskett For Texting Epstein During Hearing, Dems Object
(11-19-25) Yesterday US House Representative voted against censuring Del. Stacey Plaskett, D-V.I., the Virgin Islands’ nonvoting delegate in the House of Representatives, over newly surfaced text messages that took place between her and Jeffrey Epstein that were exchanged during the February 2019 congressional testimony of Michael Cohen.
The censure included language to remove Plaskett from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, which oversees entities like the FBI and CIA and regularly receives classified briefings on matters of national security.
