Jasmine Crockett Names Jeffrey Epstein as Zeldin Donor in House Speech

Crockett named a Jeffrey Epstein as a donor to Lee Zeldin during a House speech; outlets on multiple sides report that the donor was a different person with the same name. She later said she had not meant the convicted sex offender. Left-leaning outlets focus on Crockett's mistaken identification and the criticism it drew. Center outlets likewise stress the error and Zeldin's rebuttal, with some articles also recounting her explanation or later reversal. Right-leaning outlets also stress the error, but more often present it as a political failure and her defense as inadequate.
