Jeffrey Epstein was providing commentary to Stacey Plaskett during Michael Cohen's testimony before a U.S. Housing hearing : reports

Nov. 15, 2025

Jeffrey Epstein provided commentary to Stacey Plaskett before her turn at questioning of Michael Cohen during a 2019 U.S. House hearing, according to reports. Plaskett is the Democratic nonvoting delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands. The revelation shows how much Epstein was able to shape Government functions from behind the scenes. The reported influence was documented in records from the late Wall St. financer's estate, which were released last week by the U.S. House.
