  1. #1

    As President Donald J. Trump said, "House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax." Why haven't Democrats shown the same transparency — and what else are they hiding? 🧵

    Why aren’t Democrats talking about the fact that Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-U.S. Virgin Islands) solicited (and was given) $30,000 from Epstein for the DCCC after he was already a convicted sex offender? Or the fact that Plaskett herself accepted maxed out donations from Epstein for her own campaign? Or the fact that the wife of the former Democrat governor of the U.S. Virgin Islands told Epstein “we would have a friend in Stacey” if he made said donations? Or the fact that Plaskett was literally texting Epstein during a committee hearing?

    Why aren’t Democrats talking about the fact that former President Bill Clinton traveled on Epstein’s aircraft 26 times? Or the fact that one of Epstein’s victims wrote that she saw Clinton on Epstein’s island with two young women? Or the fact that Clinton’s visit to the island was corroborated by one of his former top aides?
