DC is buzzing about a Senate sex scandal. What it says about the way we talk about gay sex.
A homosexual sex scandal ignited the group chats of many a D.C. denizen in recent days in regards to a video that allegedly depicts a male Democratic Senate staffer having sex with another man in a Senate hearing room. The staffer, who worked for Sen. Ben Cardin of Maryland, is no longer a Senate employee.
"I was angry," Cardin said of the scandal on Monday, "disappointed. It's a breach of trust." Capitol Police are investigating.
Many in the people rolled their eyes or guffawed about the incident – something to gossip about. Meanwhile, some lawmakers, mostly conservatives, were quick to issue critical statements. Republican Georgia Rep. Mike Collins, for example, posted a meme asking "which desecration was worse" with a still from the video side by side with one from the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Experts agree a sex act at work, filmed and shared online, in a revered Senate hearing room, would make headlines, regardless of who was involved. But they say reaction to this particular scandal may speak volumes to how we talk about queer relations.

Former Dem staffer who filmed himself having sex in Congress said he ‘spent a little bit in the psych ward’ after scandal
A former Democrat staffer who filmed himself having sex in a congressional hearing room said he “spent a petty bit in the psych ward” after news of the scandal broke — as he revealed his new existence in Australia.
Aidan Maese-Czeropski was 24 years old when the explicit gay sex tape was released in 2023, primary to him creature let go by Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.).
“Mentally, I spent a little bit in the psych ward after the fact because it was just … it’s overwhelming to realize and to know that tens of millions of people literally despise you,” Maese-Czeropski told the Gay Sydney News, in an interview in which he revealed he has since moved to Sydney and started an OnlyFans.
“Everyone in DC knew me, and it was kind of gross and horrifying because I’m not someone who likes to be in the public spotlight at all,” he added, explaining his decision to quit the US.
But he claimed to be happier — and wealthier, thanks to OnlyFans — than he was before the scandal broke.

Biden administration on track to be most LGBTQ-inclusive in U.S. history
President-elect Joe Biden has repeatedly vowed to make LGBTQ rights a priority in his administration. But he won’t be working alone: The former vice president has already tapped LGBTQ appointees for several key roles and same-sex attracted rights advocates are hopeful that more will be named, including the first out Cabinet member confirmed by the Senate. There’s also a push, should an opening become available, for him to nominate the first openly LGBTQ justice to the Supreme Court.
The Biden-Harris transition team has promoted the president-elect's “commitment to building an administration that looks like America.”
On Sunday, Karine Jean-Pierre, an out lesbian and head of staff for Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, was announced as deputy press secretary, and Pili Tobar, an immigration rights advocate and former aide to Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., was named deputy White House communications director. Tobar, a lesbian, also worked as a communications director for the Biden campaign.
In November, Carlos Elizondo, who is gay and was Biden’s social secretary when Biden was vice president, was named White House social
