How fucking dumb do you have to be?

I know right?

He then went on linkedin claiming it was all fake and that people were "attacking him for who he loved." I'm sure some people were attacking him for being gay but I think most were attacking him for having sex in the senate hearing room.

It is nothing to do with him being gay. And it has everything to do with him filming himself having sex in a place where he shouldn’t be having sex, and then leaking it online. 

I didn’t even know he was gay until you mentioned it just now. It absolutely does not matter who you were fucking. It’s that you were fucking, recorded it, and it leaked. Shame on you.

Generally speaking having sex in your workplace is a bad idea*. Filming it, even worse. Doubly worse if that workplace is unique and identifiable. Triply worse if that place has security that tracks people access.

*obviously not if you are in the business of sex.

I don't think "love" describes what's going on in the video.

That right there is the dumb part. He should've owned up to it.

"Yes, I had killer sex in the Senate hearing room and all you senators are jealous you didn't do it first."

For real, if he'd embraced getting caught and just owned it he might have traded up for a much more interesting career.

I don't think I can post the video here but it's floating around. Only 7 seconds long but yeah it is what it says on the tin. Sex tape in senate hearing room.

[–] bbbhltz@beehaw.org 2 points 10 months ago

It might be politically incorrect to share it here, you're right.

Was it Cawthorn and his cousin-brother again?

The Daily Caller reported the staffer worked for Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin’s office.

CNN reached out to Cardin’s office and was directed to a statement posted by Aidan Maese-Czeropski on LinkedIn.

In the statement, Maese-Czeropski said, in part, “This has been a difficult time for me, as I have been attacked for who I love to pursue a political agenda.

While some of my actions in the past have shown poor judgement, I love my job and would never disrespect my workplace.

Cardin’s office later released a statement announcing that Maese-Czeropski is “no longer employed by the U.S. Senate.”
