Donald Trump Jr. blasts Democratic party over congressional staffer filming a sex tape in the Senate chambers.
During his Sunday morning speech at Turning Point USA’s America Fest 2023, Trump Jr. argued that Democrats were “beyond reproach,” after Senator Ben Cardin’s aid was caught recording himself having sex in a Senate hearing room.
Cardin’s 24-year-old legislative aide, Aidan Maese-Czeropski, was exposed by The Spectator in a report published Friday, for posting the raunchy video to X, formerly Twitter.
According to the Daily Caller, the video was “shared in a private group for gay men in politics,” then subsequently leaked.
Joe Biden actually had a tweet that aged well. Here he is with Senator Ben Cardin’s staffer Aidan Maese-Czeropski.

Maese-Czeropski, who was once featured in an ad for President Biden, may be in legal trouble after the Capitol Police opened an investigation over the video.
He is certainly out of a job over his actions, as confirmed by Cardin’s spokesperson, who said the self identified “twink” was “no longer employed by the U.S. Senate.”
In a statement posted to LinkedIn, Maese-Czeropski admitted to showing “poor judgment,” but denied making the video and claimed he would never “disrespect” his place of employment.
“This has been a difficult time for me, as I have been attacked for who I love to pursue a political agenda,” he said.
“While some of my actions in the past have shown poor judgement, I love my job and would never disrespect my workplace.”
Despite being filmed only wearing a jockstrap, while on all fours in the room where Supreme Court justices have their confirmation hearings.

“Any attempts to characterize my actions otherwise are fabricated and I will be exploring what legal options are available to me in these matters,” he continued.
Ousted Rep. George Santos slammed Maese-Czeropski for the assertion.
“Having sex in a United States government building and filming it is the reason you got heat. You being gay and having gay sex NO BODY gives a rats ass,” he wrote on X.
Trump Jr. said that Democrats like Maese-Czeropski could get away with their actions because “they realize there’s no one actually there as a counter-measure to this insanity.”
He also pointed out that the video was not just “a young guy being a young guy,” but a “power play,” because Democrats believe they are “beyond reproach.”
Trump Jr. claimed the upcoming 2024 presidential election will be a test of “decency,” and cited first son Hunter Biden’s refusal to comply with a congressional subpoena last week.
Hunter refused to appear for his closed-door congressional subpoena, but instead accused Republicans of being “shameless” for trying to impeach his father, who he said was innocent of corruption during a speech he made on the steps of the Capitol.
“Decency is on the ballot,” Trump Jr. hammered home. “We’ve got Hunter Biden this week talking about decency.”
“The Republicans – because they had the gall to ask him to come in and do a deposition, discussing one of thousands of instances of him selling out this country, enriching his family.”
“I mean, I used me as the example, we’ve done this one before. I take it a little bit personally because I did 50 hours of congressional testimony,” he noted.

Meanwhile, the former President attended UFC 296 in Las Vegas the night before speaking at the same event on Sunday.
Just like his past UFC appearances, Trump was met with raucous cheering from the crowd, while flanked by company CEO Dana White, with Kid Rock and actor Mario Lopez trailing.
During the memorable fight of the event, Trump watched as 29-year-old Bryce Mitchell was defeated by 38-year-old Josh Emmett.

Emmett managed to best Mitchell with a one-punch knockout that left him unconscious and convulsing at the T-Mobile Arena.
In the stands, UFC middleweights Sean Strickland and Dricus Du Plessis, who will face off next month, brawled ahead of schedule.
Du Plessis was reportedly heckling Strickland, until the 32-year-old fighter had enough and hopped over a row of seats to give him an impromptu beat down.
