Stacey Plaskett And Her Relationship With Jeffrey Epstein (Part 2)

0:00President Barack Obama. Virginia, we are counting on you. Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to raid the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years. But you can stop them by voting yes by April 21st. Help put our elections back on a level playing field and let voters decide not politicians. Vote yes by April 21st.

1:01back to the Epstein Chronicles. In this episode, we're going to pick up where we left off in the insider article talking about Stacey Plaskit. The author of this article is Jacob Shamsian. Plaskit 1 defeating the well-known Malone by just 737 votes. One local news organization called it one of the biggest upsets in Virgin Islands politics. It wasn't until a month later that Plaskit and Epstein met for the first time in person introduced by Erica Keller Halls, a local lawyer. They had a meeting on September 5th, according to copies of Epstein's schedules obtained by insider through a freedom of information act request. Plaskit was expected to host a victory in the general election. The local democratic party has a firm grip on the territory's politics. Since 1981, the Virgin Islands has only once

2:02sent a non-democrat to Congress. So who is there to blame down here? There's no evil person down here, right? No boogeyman. So there needs to be some self-reflection when it comes to these revelations that we hear that involve people like Stacey Plaskit. You can't talk out of one side of your mouth about how Stacey Plaskit is this courageous warrior or this great politician who cares about our democracy. And then out of the same side of your mouth, talk about you care about these survivors of Jeffrey Epstein because that bullshit is not going to work anymore. It's time that those kinds of folks are called out for their bullshit because they're certainly part of the problem. And if you're part of the problem, you better get ready to catch that smoke because my days of being polite are long over. Nonetheless, the Jean push for more money to support Plaskit. If she was going to cruise the victory, why would she need more money? In October 2014, she wrote an email to Epstein memorializing a $13,000 donation to a democratic

3:08party operation in Plaskit support from the Southern Trust Company. Hi Jeffrey, I'm confirming with you that STC will send $13,000 to the Democratic Party for the benefit of Stacey Plaskit. The Jean wrote, this is a gigantic scandal, folks, and it needs to be investigated and explored. And if there's criminal charges, those need to be slapped on people as well. She's getting money from Southern Trust. Really? We know that's a money laundering operation. And then you'll wonder why there's no Rico once again. I hate to bring it up. But if you take a look at this, how is it not a Rico case? This is as clear as day. It's just like going after the death penalty for Brian Coburger. That is as clear as day, just like anything Epstein was up to should have been Rico. All of the predicates were met, but somehow Rico was never enacted. JP Morgan and the US Virgin Islands blame each other for Epstein escaping justice.

4:09Plaskit's deposition and the emails between Epstein and the Jean have been produced in litigation between the US Virgin Islands and JP Morgan Chase over who bears responsibility for letting Epstein run a muck. A compensation program funded by his estate found he sexually abused more than 100 girls before his death. And there's a lot more than that unfortunately. Those are just the girls that came forward. I just received an email from somebody who says that they were also abused by Epstein and that they never received any compensation because they were scared to come forward. So I'm sure there are a ton of women out there who are going through that same exact deal who for whatever reasons have decided that they don't want to come forward and relive this nightmare. The US Virgin Islands government sued JP Morgan in December in a New York federal court alleging the bank pulled the levers of Epstein's sex trafficking operation and ignored numerous red flags. Epstein had bank with JP Morgan for decades using entities like Southern Trust Company

5:16to transport girls and pay them for their silence the US Virgin Islands has alleged. The criminal trial of Glaine Maxwell Epstein's longtime associate and one-time girlfriend and co-conspirator and fellow child abuser and all-around scus bag ended I mentioned by Poodle Serpent. In 2021 had already shed some light on how Epstein used his JP Morgan accounts. One bank official testified about documents showing that Epstein gave Maxwell at least $30.7 million between 1999 and 2007. Part of that compensation was for a helicopter pilot lessons. Witnesses testified that after passengers from Epstein's plane arrived on St. Thomas, Maxwell flew passengers from the airport there to his private island of Little St. James, which locals nicknamed Pedophile Island. If the locals are nicknaming that, how are the politicians going to say they had no idea what was going on and how did they expect anyone to believe them

6:17and if you do believe them then maybe just maybe you're part of the problem. Another trial witness testified that one of Epstein's jets which prosecutors said he used the traffic girls for sex was owned by a company called Hyperion Air, which was incorporated through, you guessed it, JP Morgan. The trial jury convicted Maxwell on charges that she traffic girls to Epstein for sex and sexually abused them herself. She's serving a 20-year prison sentence and it's too short. She should be serving a 520-year prison sentence for the bullshit she was up to. Documents obtained by the US Virgin Islands in the case show deep ties between Epstein and top JP Morgan officials, including Mary Erdos, who's widely considered to be second in line to Jamie Diamond's CEO post. Epstein's main contact at JP Morgan was just daily the head of private banking

7:18who later became the CEO of Barclays Bank only to step down in 2021 following a UK government investigation into his Epstein ties. He should have never been hired at Barclays in the first place. They act like they didn't know who he was or what he was up to. It's such BS. Just go and look at what Edward Bramson had to say at the very beginning and Bramson is a gigantic shareholder with Barclays who has a board seat. He wanted nothing to do with Jess Staley's disgusting ass. JP Morgan's defense in the lawsuit has basically been, I'm rubber, you're glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you. Well, it's kind of true though, right? Both sides here do hold a lot of responsibility for the bullshit that went down and both sides should be held accountable. The Virgin Islands had access to the same information about Epstein but did nothing to stop him. JP Morgan is said in filings. If anything the US Virgin Islands government was in Epstein's

8:21thrall. JP Morgan has argued. Authorities exercise practically no oversight when Epstein brought girls to his island even though he was a registered sex offender, lawyers for the bank of said. The Virgin Islands government, JP Morgan said, got greedy after already reaching a settlement with Epstein's estate last year and I agree with that 1000%. Why would they try and get more money here? Do they really believe they're entitled to hundreds of millions of dollars for setting the table and helping this man pray on these girls? It can only be greed. That would have them putting themselves in the crossfire once again here because now people are starting to ask the question that I've been asking for a very long time. How the US Virgin Islands is entitled to anything when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein's money. Having sought and obtained more than a hundred million dollars from Jeffrey Epstein's estate and businesses for damages caused by a sex trafficking crimes. The United States Virgin Islands now cast farther afield for deeper pockets.

9:27Lawyers for JP Morgan wrote in a filing, the sad part is all of these pockets that they're looking for happen to be the survivors. Where do you think the money would go if the US Virgin Islands would just stop their bullshit? It would go to the survivors where it deserves to go but no. The island that sent Stacey Plasket to Washington DC to go and cause havoc after she is hanging out with Mr. Pedophile himself. Well, they want more money and they want to be paid on the back end of their bullshit as well as dipping in on the front end. Is this a local government or are we talking about a mafia here? The same organization which the US Virgin Islands says was actually Epstein's vehicle for sex trafficking was managed by none other than De Jong. JP Morgan is said in court documents. The litigation has already caused some fallout in the US Virgin Islands political sphere. Denise George, the attorney general who secured the 105 million dollar settlement with Epstein's

10:32estate was fired by governor Albert Bryan Jr. several days after she brought the JP Morgan lawsuit. Bryan wanted to be kept apprised of the lawsuit status the New York Times reported and unusual expectation for any elected official. Yeah, because his name was all over the Epstein bullshit. I mean, am I the only one that's seeing the forest through the trees here? I can't be. I know you out there listening. You're hip. You know what's going on here. But it seems like the legacy media is still trying to play catch up. JP Morgan has already agreed to pay $290 million to settle a separate class action lawsuit brought by one of Epstein's victims filed around the same time as the US Virgin Islands lawsuit, as did Deutsche Bank to the tune of 75 million. But the litigation between the US Virgin Islands and JP Morgan is moving full steam ahead with no indication of a settlement in the works. US District

11:33Judge JetRakeoff has pushed the parties to move incredibly quickly with a trial scheduled for October. Court filing show the depths of Epstein's political connections. Part of the Epstein's story is how a sex offender and serial rapist, he moved freely among powerful people such as Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and Prince Andrew. Less clear is how he pulled levers of power. The court record show that, at least in the US Virgin Islands, he exerted influence with little friction, and it wasn't just in the US Virgin Islands. Let's go and look at New Mexico next, and let's see what kind of bullshit was going on there. The records dredged up by JP Morgan appear damning. Epstein practically had the entire government in his pocket through Dijong and received $300 million in tax incentives over a 19 year span. JP Morgan has said, let that sink in for a minute folks, okay? Miss Dacey Plaskit and the rest of them,

12:33they have some nerve telling anybody else that they're scummy considering what went on under their watch and not only that, but with their help and their support. You know that saying about glass houses and all, right? President Barack Obama. Virginia, we are counting on you. Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to raid the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years, but you can stop them by voting yes by April 21st.

President Barack Obama. Virginia, we are counting on you.

Plaskets connections to Abstein drew some attention in 2019 after federal prosecutors charged them with trafficking girls for sex. After initially refusing to return his campaign contributions, Plasket later said she would donate the funds to Virgin Islands organizations that work with women and children. I am uncomfortable having received money from someone

14:40who has been accused of these egregious actions multiple times. Plasket said at the time, yeah, okay, sure. But you took the money and you knew what he was. He was already a sex offender. We're talking about right before he was arrested the second time. So she can go back and try and revise history, but the facts are going to be what the facts are. Since she joined Congress in 2015, Plasket star has risen. During Trump's second impeachment, she served as an impeachment manager. In the current congressional term, Plasket serves as a counterweight to Republicans on the House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government, blasting what she sees as right-wing efforts to undermine the rule of law. Yeah, how about this for undermining the rule of law, taking money from a convicted pedophile, then using that money in an uncontested primary to win your seat? Why don't we talk about that, Stacey Plasket? How about we have a talk about what you did down in the Virgin Islands?

15:41Before we talk about how you're some kind of arbiter of truth or some kind of person who is going to hold others responsible, how about you start with yourself and the other politicians on the island at the time that Epstein was active? Until you do that, I don't want to hear shit from you. The Zhang's connections and advice for Epstein went well beyond just helping out Plasket. In email, she drew detailed pictures of the U.S. Virgin Islands' political landscape, explaining how Epstein could carry favor with candidates at different points in each election cycle. In one election, Epstein outright asked Zhang for a list of people he should vote for. The frankness is startling. In a 2015 email, Zhang suggested putting one politician on some sort of monthly retainer. This is what you will get for his loyalty and access, she wrote. Epstein later gave that politician $10,000 to consult on changing the name of one of Epstein's islands,

16:41a JP Morgan filing said. The financier, pedophile, did not change the name of either of his islands. So all this money that was being spread around, they'll say it's for this or that, but the reality is this money was being spread around to keep the criminal enterprise chugging right along. And that would have never been possible without the complicity of these officials down in the U.S. Virgin Islands. At the Zhang's direction, Epstein dulled out money freely to Zhang's political allies, JP Morgan wrote. Email submitted as exhibits show Epstein agreed to spend $10,000 for the inauguration committee of Governor Kenneth Mapp in 2014 and forked over 75,000 for Mapp's PAC in 2016. Cecille de Zhang solicited 25,000 for the 2019 gubernatorial inauguration of Bryan, who later fired the attorney general who brought the lawsuit against JP Morgan.

17:42The politicians down in the U.S. Virgin Islands were living their life like we were back in the old days and this was Tammany Hall. Like they could just do whatever they want, get in bed with Bill the butcher, you know, whatever it is. And there's going to be no repercussions. Well, I'm here to tell you the repercussions are coming. And I hope that those repercussions mean that U.S. Virgin Islands is going to get sued by these survivors as well. Not one single dollar should go to the U.S. Virgin Islands. When John de Zhang was governor, Epstein seemed to see the U.S. Virgin Islands as one big financial instrument. Epstein asked Cecille de Zhang in a typo filled February 2017 email. The VA government is desperate for cash. Does John know of any asset they might have that I can use as collateral, islands, etc. Yes, John said there are properties she responded, appearing to refer to her husband. How much do you need to collateralize? Epstein found de Zhang's connections helpful in other

18:46ways. In 2015, she helped fast track a dental license in the territory for Karina Shuliac, Epstein's girlfriend at the time of his death, and the last person he spoke to on the phone before he died. In 2013, she arranged student visas for two women Epstein wanted to bring to one of his islands. When Epstein was slow to offer the details, she needed to register them in a class for English as a second language speaker de Zhang rushed them. They are structuring the class around the ladies, she told them. Shortly before Thanksgiving in 2012, de Zhang facilitated Epstein's purchase of 78 turkeys for every employee of the St. Thomas Customs office. The agency responsible for checking everyone who arrived on his private planes. No big deal. No big deal at all, just a guy being nice, supplying some turkeys to the neighborhood. Earlier that year, the US Virgin Islands passed a bill updating its sex offender laws that Epstein

19:47was unhappy with. The Zhang and Epstein had tried to stop it from happening. In 2011, she showed him draft bills asking, this is the suggested language. Will it work for you? Imagine having the audacity to run it by the sex offender if the sex offender laws work for him? The pedophile had some suggestions. He said he wanted to make sure some files would be kept secret, less they be accessible by the press. Oh, you don't have to worry about that, Jeffy. The press all loves you. He also wanted to make sure he could easily get away on his private jet. We should add out of the country for more than seven days, otherwise I could not go on a trip to Tortola at the last minute, Epstein wrote. God forbid, the didler can't go to Tortola when he wants to go. Meanwhile, the rest of us are saving for two years to take our families to Disney World, so I'm not feeling too much empathy for Mr. Didler over here who can't go to Tortola whenever he wants. You want to travel freely? You don't want to check in? Here's an idea. Don't rape kids.

20:52When the final version of the bill passed, the Zhang offered Epstein some comfort. The new child's defender law wasn't exactly what Epstein wanted. JP Morgan, as said, they had been assured by lawmakers the Zhang suggested that things would be different. I know this was a horrible week, and I'm really sorry about how things panned out. Not being able to take someone at their word is incredibly frustrating. The Zhang wrote, however, all is not lost, and we will figure something out by coming up with a game plan to get around these obstacles. So folks, look, there's a big problem here that needs to be addressed, and that problem is Stacey Plaskit and the rest of the Democratic Party down here in the US Virgin Islands that was using Jeffrey Epstein as their personal piggy bank. Is anyone going to answer for that? Or are we just going to get more stupid as canned responses and more denials? The bad news for them, though, is we're not going to accept that, and there needs to be a real look at what happened here. There needs to be a real look at who was

21:55involved with Epstein down in the Virgin Islands, and if I was a survivor, I'd be putting together a lawsuit right now as we speak against the US Virgin Islands. And as far as Stacey Plaskit goes, I don't want to hear anything about her courage or about her being a visionary or anything like that. All I want from Stacey Plaskit is some real concrete answers about her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Alright folks, that's going to do it for this one.
