Democratic fundraising committees decline to say whether they will donate, give back Epstein funds
Two Democratic fundraising committees have remained silent since Jeffrey Epstein's arrest for alleged sex trafficking three weeks ago.
Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein in Cambridge, MA on 9/8/04. Epstein is connected with several prominent people including politicians, actors and academics.Three weeks after Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on child sex trafficking charges, Democratic fundraising groups have remained silent on whether they will donate or give back contributions from the wealthy financier.
"Go back and give money that he gave 20 years ago? Are you nuts? That's my answer to that," Fowler told CNBC in an interview Wednesday. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee saw a $10,000 donation from Epstein last year but immediately sent it back. The Palm Beach Post, which reported on the gathering at the time, said that some attendees gave as much as $100,000 to the DNC to dine with Clinton. Another participant was Arnold Paul Prosperi, a longtime college friend of the then commander in chief.
