Why is the "Throuple" Dem taking impeachment headlines away from President Trump??
Democratic Rep. Katie Hill said that her explosive sex scandal put her in one of the “darkest places that a mind can go” as she gave her final speech on the House floor — and blamed a “misogynistic culture” for her resignation.
The California congresswoman said Thursday that she was stepping down due to a “misogynistic culture that gleefully consumed my naked pictures, capitalized on my sexuality and enabled my abusive ex to continue that abuse.”
“I’m leaving but we have men who have been credibly accused of intentional acts of sexual violence and remain in boardrooms, on the Supreme Court, in this very body, and worst of all, in the Oval Office,” Hill said.
Hill claimed her appearance on Capitol Hill was the first time she left her apartment since scandalous photos emerged along with reports she carried on inappropriate relationships with two staffers.
“I went to the darkest places that a mind can go,” Hill said. “But I made it through because the people who loved me most dragged me back into the light.”
