Kids of Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden drove assistant to suicide with ‘sexually explicit’ behavior, homophobic slurs: lawsuit
NY Post ^ | September 21, 2025 | Kathianne Boniello

The children of US Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) relentlessly tormented their mom’s personal assistant, driving him to commit suicide, an explosive lawsuit claims.

Brandon O’Brien, 35, worked for the senator’s wife, Nancy Bass Wyden — owner of Manhattan’s famed Strand Bookstore — from June 2022 to September 2024 and was “frequently tasked” with caring for the couple’s young kids, including driving them to school in NYC and watching them during trips to Disneyworld.

The disturbing behavior began in September 2022 when the couple’s then-10-year-old daughter allegedly exposed herself to O’Brien, making “sexually explicit” comments and asking about his “intimate life” during school drop-offs, O’Brien’s husband, Thomas Maltezos, alleged in court papers he filed against Bass Wyden and her company, Bass Real Estate LLC.

But the mom — whose family founded the East Village bookshop nearly a century ago — allegedly did nothing about the behavior, Maltezos contended.

Meanwhile, the Wydens’ teenage son berated O’Brien with homophobic slurs such as “f—-t” and “zest kitten,” and the boy said “his football team ‘would rape him,”‘ the suit claimed.

Oregon has the oldest Vote Fraud by Mail program in the country. He hasn’t lived in Oregon for decades.

While that used to be the common thesis, nowadays with internet and school children gangs, nothing surprises me any more.........


Good point. You are correct. I expect Senator Wyden’s children would go to an exclusive school, though.

The school may be extremely politically correct and woke...

Isn’t there a 3rd (female) Senator who lives in NYC but represents another state?

"Did Wyden personally play a roll in this exploit that caused his assistant to commit suicide. He sounds dirty."

He's a RAT. Would he be anything else but dirty?

Norman Rockwell used to paint wholesome scenes of American families.

This one was much too late in time to agree to a sitting.

File this under “ things that never happened”

When someone accurately describes how the leftist elite live it sounds like fiction because it is so far outside of a decent persons’ experience. Try describing “spirit cooking” to a normal person. I won’t believe these allegations until there is actual proof but I would not dismiss them out of hand either.

I know someone who was picking up school kids every day. You wouldn’t believe what some of these elementary and junior high kids know and do. It wasn’t in a bad neighborhood at all, in fact it was in one of the most affluent towns in the state. She quit it was so bad.

Thexeufe apparently threatened the assistant guy. Hired PIs to get dirt in him, bad mouthed him so he couldn’t find another job and made his life miserable because ge quit because of things like the daughter. I have no idea what is actually true.

Maybe Wyden is not celibate as his wife lives mostly in NYC and he in Oregon or Wash. D.C.
