From the UK Guardian:
Emotional Katie Hill condemns 'horrible smear campaign' by rightwing foes
The Democratic congresswoman Katie Hill, who has quit amid allegations of an inappropriate sexual relationship with a member of her staff, released an emotional video on Monday, attacking what she called a “coordinated campaign” by Republicans and rightwing media.
Hill, 32, was elected in California last year and was seen as a rising millennial star. But last week the House of Representatives ethics committee launched an investigation into whether she had an inappropriate relationship with an aide in her congressional office, which is banned under House rules.
She denied the claim in a letter to constituents but did admit to an “inappropriate” relationship with a different, unnamed staffer on her congressional campaign. Compromising photos of Hill and alleged text messages from her to the female staffer surfaced online in a rightwing outlet and on DailyMail.com.
So. Let me get this straight. She cheated on her husband. She seduced her 24 year old aide and that woman's husband into a three-way affair (against Congressional rules) and she is the victim here?
In addition, she was one of the Democratic rising stars. Her first term in office and she could not keep her panties on for one minute? This is leadership?
Good riddance to bad trash...
