So you would say the grounds for her resignation was...what exactly? That she was in a three way affair with her now estranged husband and he subjected her to an act which is now illegal almost everywhere? Should he be prosecuted?

The word "staffer" seems oddly absent from your Tweet.

The issue with this claim is that this is not a case where the staffer came forward and said she felt pressure or uncomfortable in any way, shape, or form. And people keep talking about her age as if Hill wasn’t 30 when this happened.

She's dead to rights on the campaign staffer - which is precisely why the pictures matter. And the denials on the House staffer look pretty flimsy at this point.

So do you believe revenge porn should be illegal or is, at least, a terrible thing to do?

I believe public officials often get taken down by disclosures that came from devious origins. Ask Mark Felt.

That doesn’t answer my question whether you think revenge porn is, at least, unethical or whether you believe it should be illegal, as it now is in, iirc, 46 states?

The case for it being illegal is that its targets are not public officials holding offices of public trust. Banning political speech is always a dicey business.

The (participating) husband’s release to the media of pictures of his naked wife is protected political speech?

It's been part of our politics since James Callender.
