Black Virgin Island rep Stacey Plaskett appeared to be in the pocket of Epstein.

Why do people do this? Every time we critique someone on the democrat side who is doing something wrong they pull up some republican or right wing lunatic and say it's not as bad as them. This is in part how we got to this point when people constantly trot out "Democrats may be bad but they aren't like those crazy folks on the right".

If you can't hold your own party accountable in a situation like this how in the world do you expect to do anything about Steve Bannon? You have Hakeem Jeffries the number two democrat in the party along with Jaime Raskin a ranking member on the judiciary committee defending her so again its a significant problem and an important story.
Wait bro I have said multiple times to kick her out. I brought this up because she really is meaningless in the grand scheme of this scandal.

She’s a nobody. Of course kick her out, but it is not fair to act as if her actions as significant, or even indicative of democrats, because she isn’t significant.

A city council member has more power than her.

A member on a community board has more power than her.

She is the equivalent of a government paid lobbyist for her “constituents”.

Now compare that to Epstein Bannon who is one of the presidents biggest strategist talking about a Supreme Court nominee and how they have to get the members of the party to support Kavanaugh to overturn Chevron (which they did) and you see why I said what I said.

I know you have but the point I'm making is that the party is not doing that. I mentioned in the previous post that two high-ranking democrats are defending her along with the entire CBC if I'm not mistaken. That leads me to the 2nd part of my point if she were so "meaningless" and didn't matter why is the party not willing to throw her in the bushes?

Lastly I'll repeat what I said earlier. If we can't hold our own "meaningless" congress members accountable then how in the world do you expect to hold a powerful and influential person like Steve Bannon accountable?
