A US Senate official who is allegedly having sex in the hearing room is speaking on his own terms for the first time since the scandal broke.
Aidan Meze Chiropsky, known as the “Senate Twin” by some social media, was 24 years old when the video leaked in December 2023.Gay Sydney News He “just really enjoys life and work” after international attention has given him a “complete mental breakdown.”
“I consider myself a normal guy, but I’m told I had sex in the US Senate. That’s what I’m known.” “Mentally, I spent a bit of time in the mental ward after the fact. It’s just that it’s overwhelming, so you know, you know, it’s overwhelming, and knowing that millions of people literally splashing you.”
The video was first released by the caller of a far-right outlet daily call, showing two men in sexual acts in the Senate hearing room. This is usually a space reserved for legislative procedures. The office of US Sen. Ben Cardin, a Democrat of Maryland, issued a statement shortly after the leak. Capitol Police have begun an investigation into the issue.
Maese-Czeropski said he couldn’t find a job when the video was released because he felt that he was “a tense mess” and that “everyone in DC knew me.” He instead “purchased a one-way ticket to Cape Town, South Africa,” he became friends with a New Zealand woman and traveled. She suggested that she move to Sydney, the city he fell in love with soon.
Maese-Czeropski has since been diagnosed with PTSD and regularly takes medications by looking at therapists, but added, “When you experience something like that, it’s not ashamed because it’s overwhelming and difficult to understand.”
“I think one of the reasons why scandals weren’t doomed was because I was so depressed working for the government.” “I hated my life. I hated my job. My pay was shit. I made $38,000 a year. I didn’t think I lost anything wise when the scandal broke.”
“My dream in life is to open the sanctuary of pigeons. I’m obsessed with birds. I love pigeons,” he continued.
Maese-Czeropski said he has a full-time job paying better than his position in government and is focused on staying offline and enjoying the outdoors. He understands why the video has attracted so much attention, but he still believes there is bias in the play. “It was gay sex, so I don’t think I was treated differently,” he said.
“No matter what, when you have something as sleazy as sex in the Senate, whether it’s gay or straight or not, it’s going to be viral,” Mese Cheropsky said. “That being said, I realized that when there is a sexual scandal, passive partners tend to take more responsibility, so I didn’t get all these death threats, hatred, and the guy who was on top.”
