Hush money? What hush money? Congress paid out $17M in sealed agreements for, at least in part, sexual misadventures. Did Tara Reade get any money after Brandon allegedly digitally penetrated her while Brandon was a Senator? Did Brandon learn that technique while in the shower with his daughter?

h/t to SERKIT for dusting off this UNAUDITED congressional SEXUAL HARASSMENT SLUSH FUND.
this $17mm hush money makes the $130k for stormy or even the $850k for paula jones seem like pocket change?
I guess this $17mm slush fund was an improvement for congressional interns compared to the settlements chandra levy (gary condit) & Lori Klausutis (joe scarborough) ended up with?
