Representative Anthony D’Esposito, a New York Republican, gave part-time jobs to both his lover and his fiancée’s daughter, in possible violation of House ethics rules.

    So, wait, he was engaged, cheating on his soon to be wife and then employed both his lover and his future stepdaughter? Awkward!

      I feel like this has become almost cliché at this point, these guys are so cocky and think women are to dumb to figure out what is going on.

      Fiancée to step daughter: “how was work today?”

      Future step daughter: “It was fine, Anthony spent all day talking to the new lady who seemed awfully flirty.”

      Fiancée to step daughter: “Flirty how?”

      Future step daughter: “I don’t know, just super handsy and flustered and dishevelled when they came back an hour late from lunch.”

      Fiancée to step daughter: “Anthony you little F***er!”"

      Edit - OMG this guy was even worse at this than I had played out above.

      Mr. Ciaschi worked in the same small East Rockaway sanitation department where Mr. D’Esposito had helped place Ms. Lark’s son. In July 2023, the two men pieced together what happened, and Mr. Ciaschi shared what he knew with Ms. Lark.

      So he not only put his future step daughter and the woman he was cheating together, but he gave the son of the fiancee a job with the husband of the woman he was cheating with. It’s like he knew he was a monster and wanted to be caught. The sad part is, the end of the article says him and the fiancee got back together. ☹️

    Silly monogamists.

    The problem here is the dishonesty.

    Limiting yourself to one partner because tradition is almost as dumb as capitalism.
