Democrat Del. Stacey Plaskett (VI-At Large) continued her whirlwind public tour in which she’s tried to convince anyone who will listen that texting sex predator Jeffrey Epstein during a congressional hearing is totally normal.
It’s been a sight to see. Plaskett, who the Washington Post revealed was texting Epstein in real-time, steering her questioning of an anti-Trump witness at his direction, has offered some unique defenses.
Last night, some of the top minds in the Democrat party (which is akin to having a favorite STD) put their heads together and came up with the little-known “constituency defense.”
That is, as RedState’s Katie Jerkovich reported, Plaskett was involved in nothing nefarious. She was simply texting an average, everyday constituent.
“I got a text from Jeffrey Epstein, who at the time was my constituent,” Plaskett blathered about on the House floor. “Who…was not public knowledge at that time, that he was under federal investigation, and who was sharing information with me.”
