Same bunch of hypocrites, very telling!
Texas lawmaker gave alcohol to intern, 19, and another young staffer, and had sex with intern when she was intoxicated
A Republican Texas state lawmaker who once proposed banning children from attending drag shows to supposedly shield them from being groomed for abuse has resigned after he was found to have engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct with a 19-year-old intern.
Bryan Slaton, 45, resigned on Monday while facing mounting calls from the state’s Republican party and conservative groups to step down. A state house investigation last week determined that he supplied alcohol to the intern and another young staffer, had sex with the intern after she had become intoxicated, and later showed her a threatening email while saying everything would be fine if she kept quiet about the encounter.
House investigators noted as well that Slaton had asked a fellow lawmaker to keep his behavior secret.
