Katie Hill: 'Biphobia' led to resignation from Congress
The Hill ^ | 02 20 2020 | Kaelan Deese

Posted on 02/20/2020 3:04:04 PM PST by yesthatjallen

Former Rep. Katie Hill (D-Calif.) spoke with ABC's George Stephanopoulos on Thursday about biphobic rhetoric playing a part in her resignation.

Stephanopoulos asked Hill on ABC's "Good Morning America" if she regrets not fighting for her position, with Hill affirming that she "made the right call" stepping down from office.

"I did not want to be a liability to my colleagues," she said. "We knew from the people who had obtained the [explicit] photos that there were hundreds more images and text messages out there that I had no idea what they could be, or taken out of context."

The California lawmaker denied the allegation, but admitted she engaged in a relationship with a campaign staffer before being elected to Congress, calling it "inappropriate."

In her interview on Thursday, Hill maintained that the reaction was "sensationalizing" and "biphobic."

"The bisexuality is a huge part of it – there's a fantasy element of it," Hill said. "There's biphobia that is rampant still, and certainly a misunderstanding of what bisexuality is."

'I blame others for their biphobia'

If she didn't take photoss no one would likely care or know.

Taking salacious photos and letting them show up on social media proves her recklessness.

Any opposition or disagreement is now labeled as “____phobic”.

Ah, saw the word “phobic”.

When used by a Dimbulbcrat/progressive/socialist/marshmallow major (synonyms all), the word renders the rest of the article meaningless, because those idiots obviously do not know the meaning of it.

One can be phobic about spiders/flying/snakes, etc.

On the other hand, one naturally feels sorry for and wonders about the mental state of a man pretending to be a woman. Or vise versa.
Period.

Her problem was that she wasn't there long enough to get a slush fund to cover it all up.

What in the Hell is biphobia? Why can’t this woman just admit who and what she is and she messed up?

What a typical leftist nitwit. I think she feared the pics of her with dead animals, “electric appliances” and those with cloven hooves that were soon to surface. Typical. Loser.

Her House of Representatives health insurance doesn’t cover bifocals? I find that hard to believe.

Because the media wouldn’t be at her doorstep anymore

It wasn’t anyone on the Right who forced her out.

She should publicly take it up with Nazi Pelosi, the one who told her she had to go

You’re an elected public figure with seemingly no common sense or self control.

This is not a new thing. It’s been going on for years. You take pictures, you take chances. You did it to yourself. And you screwed the constituents who voted, campaigned, and donated money.
