Capitol Hill Scandal: Sex Tape Controversy Erupts in Senate Hearing Room

Jill Biden's previous statement about "decency" being on the ballot in the 2020 election is facing criticism after reports emerged of a sex tape filmed by an aide to Democratic Senator Ben Cardin in a Senate hearing room. The footage, which has not been independently verified, has prompted conservatives and supporters of former President Donald Trump to question the first lady's remarks. The aide in question, Aidan Maese-Czeropski, is no longer employed by the U.S. Senate, according to a spokesperson for Cardin. Maese-Czeropski has defended himself, stating that attempts to characterize his actions otherwise are fabricated. Critics on social media have used the incident to question the Biden administration's commitment to decency.
