The Congress folk defending her on the House floor are ridiculous.

Every media story, any leaning, is pointing out her actions were so bad, censure is a light sentence

Texting Epstein? Bad.
Banging underage girls with Epstein? Great. I mean my god, they were 15, not 5, right Republicans?

Update:

The House voted 209-214 Tuesday night against formally reprimanding Del. Stacey Plaskett for communicating with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 Oversight Committee hearing. The Democratic delegate will keep her House Intel post after the House voted down a formal reprimand.

Good. Just because she communicated with him doesn't mean she was in any way involved with his sexploitation evils.

No one even remotely suggested she was.

Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-VI) is the first person of color now implicated in this sordid mess.

Why she kept her position in the HPSCI was a mystery to me, until I read that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) personally selected the first Delegate from the US Virgin Islands to ever sit on this important committee.

Gotta keep the, um, "secrets" safe, right?
