NEW: Rep Anthony D'Esposito had an affair — and put his lover on his congressional payroll, according to three people familiar w/the relationship + the mistress's ex-husband.
It was one of a pair of hires that may violate House ethics rules.

Seems to me D’Esposito just blew his re-election chances here.
Isn’t NY-04 a Lean Blue District?
Yes. Good chance he would have lost anyway.
Excellent! One House seat coming up for Democrats.
Keep 'em coming.
Maybe, because of the corruption and probably not so much the affair per se.
I have to think having Santos next door so recently that tolerance for corruption/affairs is lower than usual.
Corruption, yes. I don't know if New Yorkers are prudes.
Imo putting her on the payroll is the actual killer
