US Senate Staffer, Caught Having Sex In Hearing Room, Says He Was Bored: "Have No Regrets"
Aidan Maese-Czeropski, a US Senate staffer who was fired for allegedly filming himself while having sex in a Capitol hearing room, expressed "no regrets" for the act, citing boredom with his prestigious job. Dubbed the "Senate Twink," the 25-year-old relocated to Australia after the controversial video, recorded in the exclusive Hart 216 Senate room.
"But I don't regret f—king in the Senate," he told New York Magazine via FaceTime from a beach in the Outback. "I would come in nine hours a day, sit there bored out of my f—king mind. So yeah, I'm going to entertain myself and f–k in a room," he added.
Maese-Czeropski, now an expatriate, admitted to reserving Hart 216, where James Comey testified on Russian election interference and Ruth Bader Ginsburg was sworn in, for the explicit act, per the report. The desk used was recently occupied by Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), a former Democratic presidential candidate. Post-act, he gave his partner a Senate tour and returned to work before noon. However, he committed a grave error by sharing the video in a group chat, only to see it surface on the Daily Caller days later, exposing him publicly.
He initially coped with the backlash by obsessively watching TV but was overwhelmed by threats and shame, leading to a brief psych ward stay, per New York Magazine. After hitting rock bottom, he embarked on a backpacking trip through Southern Africa, Portugal, and the Canary Islands, ultimately settling in Australia.
"It's hard to say that I learned a lesson. In some sense, I f—ked in the Senate because I was miserable and wanted a way out," Maese-Czeropski admitted.
He also claimed that he knows plenty of other people who've had sex in the Senate. "I had a half-second where I was like, I know so many people who've f*cked in the Senate. I could throw people under the bus to water down my scandal," he said.
Instead, he's embraced his infamy, launching an OnlyFans account under "Senate Twink Official," boasting that he is going to cash in on this name.
He was dismissed from Sen. Cardin's office after the video leak, but the Capitol Police declined to press charges, noting the act, though outrageous, wasn't illegal.
"After consulting with federal and local prosecutors, as well as doing a comprehensive investigation and review of possible charges, it was determined that — despite a likely violation of congressional policy — there is currently no evidence that a crime was committed," the agency said at the time.

Tulsi Gabbard warns: ‘Elites, warmongers' are driving us toward nuclear doom
US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard issued a dire warning on Tuesday (June 10), claiming the world is closer to nuclear annihilation than ever before. The message came in a stark, three-minute video posted to her personal account on X, shortly after her visit to Hiroshima, Japan. 'I recently visited Hiroshima and stood at the epicenter of a city scarred by the unimaginable horror caused by a single nuclear bomb dropped in 1945,' Gabbard said in the video. 'What I saw, the stories I heard, and the haunting sadness that remains, will stay with me forever.' Tulsi Gabbard called out what she described as a reckless global drift toward nuclear conflict, driven by political elites and warmongers. 'This is the reality of what's at stake, what we are facing now,' she said. 'Because as we stand here today, closer to the brink of nuclear annihilation than ever before, political elite and warmongers are carelessly fomenting fear and tensions between nuclear powers.' Although Gabbard refrained from naming any specific nations, her message comes at a time of heightened nuclear anxieties involving Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea. Gabbard appeared to echo recent Russian narratives surrounding the war in Ukraine — a conflict the Trump administration has been trying to de-escalate. The video includes Gabbard touring Hiroshima landmarks and historical archive footage of the 1945 atomic bombings. 'A single nuclear weapon today could kill millions in just minutes,' Gabbard warned. Gabbard also suggested that political leaders may be less concerned about the consequences because they have access to exclusive protection. 'Perhaps it's because they are confident that they will have access to nuclear shelters for themselves and for their families that regular people won't have access to,' she said. 'We must reject this path to nuclear war.' In her closing appeal, Gabbard called on the public to act. 'We must reject this path to nuclear war and work toward a world where no one has to live in fear of a nuclear holocaust,' she said. 'Speak up and demand an end to this madness.'

Senate GOP Seeks to Scale Back Food Aid Cuts in Trump Tax Bill
Bloomberg Updated 12 Jun 2025, 02:52 AM IST Senate Republicans plan to scale back cuts to federal food aid for the poor that their counterparts in the House used to help pay for Donald Trump's massive tax and spending package, a key senator said Wednesday. The Senate version of the tax legislation would exempt states that keep their food stamp payment error rates low from a new cost-shifting provision House Republican imposed requiring state governments to cover as much as a quarter of the cost of federal food stamps received by their residents, Senate Agriculture Chairman John Boozman said. Boozman, whose committee has jurisdiction over portions of the legislation covering federal food aid and farm subsidies, said the Senate version also would exempt parents of children younger than 10 years old from work requirements for food assistance. The House version of the tax bill imposes work requirements on parents once their children turn 7 years old. The House version of the legislation would require states to pay between 5% and 25% of the cost of benefits their residents receive through federal food stamps, formally known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SN. States with lower payment error rates would pay a smaller share of food stamp costs. The new requirements for SN will be delayed to 2028 to give states time to adjust, Boozman said. The Senate version would exempt states with a payment error rate below 6% from the cost-sharing requirement, Boozman said. Republicans on the Senate Agriculture Committee considered the House version too burdensome on states, the Arkansas senator said.

LA protests: More than 20 people detained after first night of curfew
Police detained more than 20 people, mostly on curfew violations, on the first night of restrictions in downtown Los Angeles and used crowd-control projectiles to break up hundreds of protesters demonstrating against President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, officials said Wednesday. But there were fewer clashes between police and demonstrators than on previous nights, and by daybreak, the downtown streets were bustling with residents walking dogs and commuters clutching coffee cups. Officials said the curfew was necessary to stop vandalism and theft by agitators after five days of protests, which have mostly been concentrated downtown. Demonstrations have also spread to other cities nationwide, including Dallas and Austin in Texas, and Chicago and New York, where thousands rallied and more arrests were made. Also Read: Los Angeles protests spiral as protesters torch cars, block major freeway | Pics LA's nightly curfew, which the mayor said would remain in effect as long as necessary, covers a 1-square-mile (2.5-square-kilometer) section that includes an area where protests have occurred since Friday in the sprawling city of 4 million. The city of Los Angeles encompasses roughly 500 square miles (1,295 square kilometers). "If there are raids that continue, if there are soldiers marching up and down our streets, I would imagine that the curfew will continue,' Mayor Karen Bass said. Also Read: Los Angeles curfew map and time: Check if you're affected by curfew amid protests The tensions in LA and elsewhere emerged as immigration authorities seek to dramatically increase the number of daily arrests across the country. Bass said the raids spread fear across the city at the behest of the White House. 'We started off by hearing the administration wanted to go after violent felons, gang members, drug dealers,' she told a news conference. 'But when you raid Home Depots and workplaces, when you tear parents and children apart, and when you run armored caravans through our streets, you're not trying to keep anyone safe. You're trying to cause fear and panic.' Referring to the protests, she added: 'If you drive a few blocks outside of downtown, you don't know that anything is happening in the city at all.' Some 2,000 National Guard soldiers are in the city, and about half of them have been protecting federal buildings and agents, said Army Maj. Gen. Scott Sherman, head of Task Force 51, which is overseeing the deployment of National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles. About 700 Marines will soon join the Guard troops, but they are still undergoing training and will not be mobilized Wednesday, Sherman said. Another 2,000 Guard troops should be on the streets by Thursday, he said. Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has accused Trump of drawing a 'military dragnet' across the nation's second-largest city with his escalating use of the National Guard, which Trump activated, along with the Marines, over the objections of city and state leaders. Newsom asked a court to put an emergency stop to the military helping federal immigration agents. The assistance includes some guardsmen now standing protectively around agents as they carry out arrests. A judge set a hearing for Thursday, giving the administration several days to continue its activities. The change moves the military closer to engaging in law enforcement actions such as deportations, as Trump has promised as part of his immigration crackdown. The Guard has the authority to temporarily detain people who attack officers, but any arrests would be made by law enforcement. The president posted on the Truth Social platform that the city 'would be burning to the ground' if he had not sent in the military. Meanwhile in New York City, police said they took 86 people into custody during protests in lower Manhattan that lasted into Wednesday morning. Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the vast majority of demonstrators were peaceful. A 66-year-old woman in Chicago was injured when she was struck by a car during downtown protests Tuesday evening, police said. Video showed a car speeding down a street where people were protesting. In Texas, where police in Austin used chemical irritants to disperse several hundred demonstrators Monday, Republican Gov. Greg Abbott's office said Texas National Guard troops were 'on standby" in areas where demonstrations are planned. Guard members were sent to San Antonio, but Police Chief William McManus said he had not been told how many troops were deployed or their role ahead of planned protests Wednesday night and Saturday. Two people accused of throwing Molotov cocktails at police during the LA protests over the weekend face charges that could bring up to 10 years in prison, the Justice Department announced Wednesday. No one was injured by the devices. One of the suspects is a U.S. citizen, and the other overstayed a tourist visa and was in the U.S. illegally, authorities said. 'We are looking at hundreds of people,' U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said. 'If you took part in these riots and were looking to cause trouble, we will come looking for you.' Trump has called the protesters 'animals' and 'a foreign enemy' and described Los Angeles in dire terms that the governor says is nowhere close to the truth. Newsom called Trump's actions the start of an 'assault' on democracy. 'California may be first, but it clearly will not end here. Other states are next,' he said. The protests began Friday after federal immigration raids arrested dozens of workers in Los Angeles. Protesters blocked a major freeway and set cars on fire over the weekend, and police responded with tear gas, rubber bullets and flash-bang grenades. Thousands of people have peacefully rallied outside City Hall and hundreds more protested outside a federal complex that includes a detention center where some immigrants are being held following workplace raids. Despite the protests, immigration enforcement activity has continued throughout the county, with city leaders and community groups reporting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement present at libraries, car washes and Home Depots. School graduations in Los Angeles have increased security over fears of ICE action, and some have offered parents the option to watch on Zoom. Los Angeles police detained 200 people related to the protests throughout the day on Tuesday, including 67 who were occupying a freeway, according to the city's chief. The majority of arrests since the protests began have been for failing to disperse, while a few others were for assault with a deadly weapon, looting and vandalism. At least seven police officers have been injured.
