📢 TOP STORY: Effort to smear Trump over Epstein docs goes sideways for Rep. Jasmine Crockett as CNN corrects the record ⚡.NH

Fact-challenged, lefty Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett got put in her place on live TV by CNN anchors after she falsely tried to blame Republicans for redacting the name of one of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims in a newly released email.

The email in question was part of a tranche of 23,000 pages of documents from the convicted pedophile’s estate released by Republicans on the House Oversight Committee this week after Democrats published a smaller batch in which they chose to redact the name of deceased victim Virginia Giuffre.

Republicans later revealed the omitted name in the 2011 email was Giuffre, and accused the Democrats of deliberately muddying the waters by obscuring it.

“The fact that Trump does not want these files to be out to me says he has more to hide than him actually being able to exonerate himself,” Crockett said on “The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer” Thursday.

However CNN anchor Pamela Brown then produced the email, and pointed out that Giuffre, who died by suicide in April, wrote in her posthumously published memoir that Trump had no hand in the disgraced financier’s wrongdoing.

“Yeah, I don’t know. Obviously it’s redacted who the victim is, so I won’t necessarily take the Republican word on who it is that’s redacted,” Crockett said with a self-righteous laugh.
“And I don’t know why they would necessarily redact someone’s name who is deceased at this point.”

Brown quickly corrected the far-left rep, reminding her, “the Democrats did that, though.”

A visibly rattled Crockett stammered through an attempt to walk back her false assertion and quickly changed the subject.

“The Democrats were — no, no, I understand. But just saying, like, our biggest concern is to actually make sure we are protecting victims. And obviously, she wrote a book, she told her truth.”

Crockett, when she isn’t getting her feet literally kissed by batty liberal radio hosts, abusing her staff or spending tens of thousands in campaign cash on lavish hotel stays, limo rides and private security, has a lengthy history making dubious claims.

In September, Crockett sparked outrage when she referred to Kayla Hamilton, a 20-year-old brutally raped and murdered by an illegal immigrant and MS-13 gang member as “a random dead person.“

She also called Trump and his supporters “the most unpatriotic people we have in this country” on an episode of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s podcast in August.

Thursday’s episode was the second time in two weeks that CNN took Crockett to task for her misleading statements about Trump, whom she has referred to as a “piece of s—t” and repeatedly compared to Adolf Hitler.

Late last month, CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins corrected Crockett’s parroting of a debunked claim that the president’s “top priority” during the government shutdown is building the new White House ballroom.

“Yeah, and that context of the comment from Karoline Leavitt — she was asked if the president was working on any other renovations when it came to the White House,” the anchor said.

“And she was saying his focus was the ballroom.”
