WND:
A married U.S. congressman is facing calls to resign following his admission of a years-long sexual affair with an intern for former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
“It is true that I had a previous relationship outside of my marriage, over the course of several years,” Rep. Steven Horsford, D-Nev., told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
“I’m deeply sorry to all of those who have been impacted by this very poor decision, most importantly my wife and family. Out of concern for my family during this challenging time, I ask that our privacy is respected.”
The Democrat’s admission came after the intern, Gabriela Linder, publicly detailed the affair in her explosive series of podcasts, “Mistress for Congress,” in which she used the pseudonym of “Love Jones.”
According to the Review-Journal, “She said Horsford offered her financial support, introduced her to political connections and filmed a segment for her young son’s YouTube show using his congressional staff.”
She told the paper she began having sex with Horsford in 2009 when she was a 21-year-old intern at then-Sen. Harry Reid’s Nevada office, and he was 36. The affair continued until April of this year, with the congressman now age 47.
Linder claims Horsford used his status as an older man of power to take advantage of her and control her, adding the congressman never outright asked her not to tell anyone of their misdeeds.
“He knew how in love with him I was, and he knew what he could do and get away with,” she said. “He knows I would support him. He never told me to keep quiet. He didn’t have to. He knew I was loyal to a fault.” more here
Anything goes, is the new standard for the US. Just make the attempt to justify anything and the sheeple will be okay with it and go back to munching the grass and looking down. Much the same with US justice.
He be stranded in the Love Boat. Another Love Rat exposed by Love Jones. He’ll have to ask forgiveness and make lots of promises to reform and become an honest husband. He’s a real Demonrat. He’ll probably get re-elected.
Douchebag and gold digger–they sound like a match made in heaven, but get them the f out of Congress.
another andrew gillum wannabe, no problem
He’s part of the protected class with a “D” after his name, perfect resume enhancer.
PRIVATE LIVES ARE OFF LIMITS!
‘ respect our privacy’
that would be status quo, wouldn’t it?
There have been sufficient smidgeons revealed, that it is high time to make public the secret congressional hush fund that covers up such whoring around in congress. It is the taxpayer’s money that enables these cretins, and we need to see what we are getting for our money.
He’s a “D”. That means all sins are forgiven before he
commits them as far as his party of evil is concerned.
What makes this newsworthy?
Dude. If you got busted in April, it’s not a “previous relationship” in May. You’d still be at it right now if you could. Probably still have future meetups scheduled on your phone. Better check that.
John,
“He’s a “D”. That means all sins are forgiven before he
commits them as far as his party of evil is concerned.”
You’re half right. Sin doesn’t even exist UNLESS you’re a conservative, in which case anything you do is unforgivable.
But take Pelosi, for example. She could slit the throat of an infant and pour the blood on her grinning upturned face live on satellite feed, and there’d be a half-dozen explanations offered why it was okay, brave, necessary, Trump’s fault, etc.
pees-loosely does God’s work by enabling the baby-murderers, & on your dime
democrat resume enhancer like non other
She didn’t get much out of trying to sleep her way to the top. I mean, Kamala Harris got herself a Senate seat….
The House is now the Whore House?
When wasn’t it?
Most staffers are in their 20s or so and on the prowl. AND they’re willing to do MOST anything to further their careers.
The House Gym was built with cubicles equipped with beds – for relaxation after a hard round of paddle-ball and a dip in the heated pool – of course – *cough cough* – of course. The fags had taken over so much that the House imposed restraints on usage over weekends and holidays – which, of course, was unenforceable – but curtailed Members from bringing their families, who were shocked by the faggots’ behavior.
Another lying hypocrite exposed to no improvement – the other lying hypocrites will defend and deflect – protecting his “privacy.”
izlamo delenda est …
Not sure how this story made the news. In order to be newsworthy, he would have to be found in a hotel room, naked with two other men, one a gay porn star, overdosed, with bags of cocaine, and not be arrested . Except even that wasn’t newsworthy to the dems.
@Racer X: Why is the woman a gold digger? She’s been diggin for 11 years with a man that’s married and has 3 children? What did she get out of it other than exposing him for what he really is. If anything, she’s a whistleblower and I admire that in a woman. She did us all a favor by exposing him, his wife outta thank her. Looks like his wife gets the pot of gold.
Burn the coal, pay the toll.
What did the coal burner see in him? Must’ve been his huge
expense account
Her reason for outing him will make sense when the newer/younger side piece is revealed.
Still not going to be newsworthy. It’s just adultery.
No doubt Jessie Jackson will come to counsel him, with his latest intern in tow.
…once again, that is NOT what the phrase “Sexual Congress” is SUPPOSED to mean…
