It will be interesting to see if there is any fall-out from her disgusting -- and possibly illegal -- stunt yesterday.

MisTBlu, let’s hope so. Found this online re District of Columbia’s statute:

“D.C. Code § 22-3052. Disclosure” is defined as the transfer or exhibit of the image to 5 or fewer persons.

If the sexual image is shared with 6 or more persons through “publication,” either directly or by uploading to the Internet, then the offense is First-Degree Unlawful Publication of a Sexual Image. This is a felony offense punishable by up to 3 years in prison and/or a fine of $12,500. In order to secure a conviction for this offense, the government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that (1) the defendant knowingly published one or more sexual images of another person, (2) the person depicted was either identified or identifiable, (3) the person depicted did not consent to the disclosure or publication of the image, (4) there was an agreement or understanding between the defendant and person depicted that the sexual image would not be disclosed or published, and (5) the defendant published the sexual image with the intent to harm the person depicted or to receive financial gain. D.C. Code § 22-3053.

Finally, a third party who comes into possession of the sexual image and who “publishes” it (i.e., shares it with 6 or more people) can be charged with Second Degree Unlawful Publication of a Sexual Image. This is a misdemeanor offense punishable by up to 180 days in jail and/or a fine of $1,000. In order to prove this offense, the government must establish that (1) the defendant knowingly published a sexual image that was obtained through a third party, (2) the person depicted was either identified or identifiable, (3) the person depicted did not consent to the disclosure or publication of the image, (4) the defendant published the sexual image with conscious disregard that the sexual image was obtained as a result of a previous disclosure or publication of the sexual image made with an intent to harm the person depicted or to receive financial gain. D.C. Code § 22-3054.”

I hope Hunter Biden sues her for this!

Good work. At the very least, Hunter should sue her. But, truly, the DA of DC should open a case. She's so out of control! Let's not forget that she called Bobo a "little bitch" on the floor of the House.

It interests me that this story has been mostly buried by the print media and not one opinion writer has opined.

I’m not much into public shaming, but for this stunt she pulled, I’d make an exception! I had more devious thoughts then realized that would be doing the same despicable thing as she…lasted about a nanosecond.

It was an Indelible moment, the stain of which should follow her to the end of time.

That woman has no shame so, no public shaming. I agree with MisTBlu that it will be (one more) indelible stain on her life's record and arguably the most egregious.

What would you bet that she would claim protection from a lawsuit under the Speech and Debate Clause? I can also imagine a claim that DC has no legal jurisdiction because the Capitol building is federal property (seems like a bizarre thought but wouldn't put it past her). Still, I'd like to see Hunter B. file a suit against her.

Great research! Thank you. I think Hunter Biden should sue, but to bring more attention to behaviors in the course of his former addiction would only bring attention to a troubled past and would not erase any damage done to his credibility. Best let sleeping dogs lie. Get the originals if possible and destroy. Move forward in dignity. Every man has a penis. MTG is a bitch. Move on. Get Greene out if Congress in the most expedient way possible.

Yeah, Hunter, overcoming his addictions/troubles is now in the crucible of the public eye…I hope he emerges like hardened steel from the fire…strong and with heart.
