Freshman Democratic Rep. Katie Hill (Calif.) is denying allegations that she had an improper relationship with a congressional staffer, and blamed the controversy on an "abusive husband" that she is in the midst of divorcing.

The 32-year-old Hill has reached out to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) to deny the allegations, according to multiple Democratic sources.

Quote
In her statement, Hill vehemently denied any improper relationship with Kelly. Hill said U.S. Capitol Police are now investigating where the nude photo came from and how it was published.

"Intimate photos of me and another individual were published by Republican operatives on the internet without my consent," Hill said in her statement. "I have notified Capitol Hill police who are investigating the situation and potential legal violations of those who posted and distributed the photos, and therefore will have no further comment on the digital materials."

A few other photos leaked. One shows her smoking a bong before marijuana was legalized in California (file under "LOL who gives a sh**t), revelations that she and her ex-husband distributed her nude photos under sites called "wifeshare" and "WouldYouF[inks]MyWife" (file under "Probably not the public's but yikes") and...that she has a Nazi symbol tattoo (file under "HOLY SH!T)
Oh my....

Knight considering to run again:

Quote
Former Rep. Steve Knight confirmed speculation Sunday that he would be considering a run in the expected special election for Rep. Katie Hill’s soon-to-be-vacated seat.

Knight, a Republican, said he met with several people this afternoon, shortly after it was announced that Hill was planning to resign.
Quote
When asked if he was considering a run, he replied:

“Yes, I’m absolutely considering that. Let’s say I’m more than considering that,” adding that a formal announcement would be made “very quickly.”

Quote
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) on Friday set the date for the special election to decide who will replace former Rep. Katie Hill (D), who announced her resignation late last month amid allegations that she had affairs with campaign and congressional staffers.

The special election for the 25th Congressional District seat will take place March 3, and if no candidate wins the majority, then a runoff will be held on May 12, the governor's office said.

March 3 is also the scheduled date for California’s 2020 presidential primary, as well as the primary for November's House elections.

Katie Hill should sue the NRCC into bankruptcy.

The police should be involved at this point.

Should honestly rescind her resignation.

No, she really, really shouldn’t.

She really, really should. She shouldn’t give into the right’s smear campaign.

When the media reports on a republican's scandal, it's "good journalism."
When the media reports on a democrat's scandal, it's a "smear campaign," and they should be sued.

Context matters.   Everything points to this not being a true "scandal" against Hill,  rather just blatant sexism and revenge porn put out by an ex.

I really don't see how Hill did anything wrong.
She happily let her cuck husband take pictures of her and post them in r/wifesharing, she also conviently blames her husband for abuse, and divorces him around the time he found out she was cheating.

But sure "sexism" is the problem here.
