Video: Staffer’s Actions Behind Democrat Leave People Uneasy
Democratic Del. Stacey Plaskett of the Virginia Islands Speaks Out on Censorship and Free Speech
Last week, Democratic Del. Stacey Plaskett of the Virginia Islands delivered a powerful speech at the House Judiciary Subcommittee Hearing on Censorship and Free Speech. But it wasn’t just her words that caught people’s attention.
As Plaskett passionately addressed the committee, her aide, seated behind her, could be seen silently mouthing the same words she was speaking. It was a mesmerizing sight that added an intriguing element to the proceedings.
Plaskett’s speech focused on the committee’s recent interview with Laura Dehmlow, a section chief of the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force. She specifically referenced a question asked to Dehmlow about the laptop of Hunter Biden, which has been a subject of controversy.
“I wanted to introduce into the record page 55 from the committee’s interview with FBI employee Laura Dehmlow,” Plaskett began. “In that line, [Dehmlow] says the question was asked, ‘Ok, if someone were to leave here today, were to leave this interview and were to suggest or imply that when you said the laptop was real, that it meant that the FBI had affirmatively determined in October 2020 that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden, that the contents belonged to Hunter Biden, and that the contents had not been manipulated in some way, would they be representing what you said?'”
But here’s where things took an interesting turn.
As Plaskett uttered the word “representing,” her lip-syncing aide seemed slightly alarmed. The aide quickly stood up and approached Plaskett, whispering into her ear, “misrepresenting.”
After being fact-checked by her aide, Plaskett continued her speech, while the aide sighed and fidgeted with her hair. It was a peculiar moment that didn’t go unnoticed by viewers.
Conservative journalist “TexasLindsay” took to Twitter to express her concerns about the incident. “Plaskett’s aide apparently memorized her entire speech and lip-synced as she read it—but the look in her eyes is what concerns me the most,” she wrote.

Others on Twitter also shared their thoughts on the incident. Rick Hinshaw described it as “one of the weirdest creepiest things” he had ever seen.

While the aide’s behavior was undeniably strange, it’s worth noting that Capitol Hill has seen its fair share of bizarre occurrences recently. This incident adds to the growing list of peculiar moments in the political sphere.
