Texas Republican Congressman Refuses To Resign Despite Affair And Sexual Harassment Of Staffer Who Committed Suicide
An extramarital affair, workplace sexual harassment, and a suicide. This is a sitting member of congress and a Republican, so there are obviously no surprises here. I guess the only thing that is actually a surprise is that the congressman didn’t murder his mistress himself. Well, who knows. Maybe he did. News above via CBS, and a quick clip below from this morning via CNN.
News — Tony Gonzales, facing scandal, told me: “I will not resign.”
I asked him if the texts are authentic and if he had carried on an affair with a staffer. He would not directly say.
“What you have seen are not all the facts.”
He plans to speak with Johnson today pic.twitter.com/C2S99zOQ8j
