Plies is criticizing mainstream media platforms over their coverage of the 2024 presidential election, claiming outlets are going overboard with their coverage of President Joe Biden to “bury” reports of Donald Trump’s alleged ties to the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
On Tuesday (July 9), the “Shawty” hitmaker took to X (Twitter) to share his perspective.
“So Trump In The Epstein Files Is Why Mainstream Media Don’t Wanna Let Go Of The Biden Story!!” he began. “The Longer They Keep That Front & Center In The News. The More They Can Stay Away From The Trump/Epstein Story!!!! In Hopes To Bury It!!!”

Plies’ remarks arrive after a congressman raised the topic during a House Democrats meeting Tuesday. A Florida judge recently released court transcripts from the 2006 prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein.
“We hear a lot from our constituents on different issues but something I’ve heard that doesn’t seem to be being covered are the Epstein files,” Vice Chair of the House Democratic Caucus Ted Lieu, D-Calif., stated.
“Donald Trump is sort of all over this,” he added. “There are pictures of him with Jeffrey Epstein. He’s taken multiple plane flights with Epstein with young girls on board. He’s in call logs with Epstein,” Lieu said.

Trump previously admitted to knowing the disgraced financier but said, “I don’t think I’ve spoken to him in 15 years.” He also insisted, “I was not a fan of his, that I can tell you.”
