The records include text exchanges between Democratic Virgin Islands Delegate Stacey Plaskett and Epstein during Michael cohen&#8217;s 2019 testimony. Jennings argued that democrats&#8217; efforts to link President Donald Trump to Epstein might backfire, highlighting existing evidence of Epstein&#8217;s ties to Democratic leaders such as Plaskett, Hakeem Jeffries, and Larry Summers. While Democrats have downplayed these associations-insisting communications were routine or insignificant-Republicans attempted to remove Plaskett from a key House Intelligence Committee position, but the effort failed. Jennings suggests that instead of a Trump scandal,the Epstein revelations may increasingly implicate democrats.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Republican strategist Scott Jennings said Tuesday that Democrats may soon face political blowback as <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >newly released records continue<\/a> to expose previously unknown ties between high-profile party figures and disgraced sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n<p>Newly released Epstein files revealed deep Democratic ties to Epstein, including messages showing that Democratic Virgin Islands Del.
