And here we go. Democrats Katie Hill will resign over the naasty sex scandal she was embroiled in.
Freshman Rep. Katie Hill is resigning from Congress after facing allegations of inappropriate sexual relationships with staffers in her office and on her congressional campaign, according to two Democratic sources.
She’s set to resign by the end of the week.
Hill was under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for allegations of an improper sexual relationship with a male congressional staffer, a claim she denied. Hill admitted to and apologized for an “inappropriate” relationship with a female campaign staffer earlier this week.
Wow. I guess even the voters of California aren’t down for a “throuple” scandal.
And that is surprising given how little the media has given this scandal coverage. They really tried to help her as much as possible, but it didn’t work! BOOM!
UPDATE!
She just tweeted about her resignation.
It is with a broken heart that today I announce my resignation from Congress. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but I believe it is the best thing for my constituents, my community, and our country.
