Aidan Maese-Czeropski is Fired for Obscene Video in Senate
A Senate staffer is no longer employed after reportedly filming himself having gay sex in a Senate hearing room, the senator's office confirmed in a statement on Saturday.
Democratic Maryland Sen. Ben Cardin's office said the staffer, who is reportedly Aidan Maese-Czeropski, does not work for him any more. Capitol Police are now investigating the incident.
"Aidan Maese-Czeropski is no longer employed by the U.S. Senate," the statement reads. "We will have no further comment on this personnel matter."
Maese-Czeropski, a 24-year-old legislative aide, was accused of posting a video of himself in flagrante delicto with another man on a public X account. His face appeared to be clearly visible, according to The Spectator, which first broke the story Friday.
The roughly eight seconds of intercourse allegedly took place in the same room where nominees to the Supreme Court are grilled by senators and where former FBI boss James Comey once testified about alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Graphic video of the moment was published by The Daily Caller Friday evening.
