Aidan Maese Czeropski, a legislative aide for Democratic Maryland Senator Ben Cardin, was recently accused of filming a pornographic video inside a Senate hearing room.
A video obtained by the Daily Caller on Friday, December 15, showed an alleged congressional staffer having sexual relations with an unknown man in the Senate hearing room. According to the Daily Caller, a source confirmed that the room where the explicit video was recorded was Senate Room Hart 216, the Judiciary Room.
The identity of the men in the video was not immediately confirmed by the outlet. However, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), Mike Collins, the U.S. representative for Georgia’s 10th congressional district, claimed the individual was a staffer for Senator Ben Cardin.
Who is Aidan Maese-Czeropski?
Aidan Maese-Czeropski, the staffer, reportedly confronted Jewish Republican Ohio Rep. Max Miller this week about his support for Israel.
Aidan Maese Czeropski, according to his LinkedIn profile, works as a legislative aide for Democratic Maryland Senator Ben Cardin. Czeropski began working for Cardin as a staff assistant in 2021, quickly rising through the ranks to become a Foreign Policy Legislative Correspondent in 2022. For the past two months, Czeropski has been Sen. Cardin’s legislative aide.
Czeropski graduated from Palo Alto High School in 2017 before attending Johns Hopkins University and earning a degree in International Studies in 2019. In July 2020, he will also receive a B.S. in Society and Environment from the University of California, Berkeley.
While the video from the Senate hearing room does not show the men’s faces, Representative Mike Collins claimed that Aidan Maese Czeropski was involved in shooting the explicit content with another man in the Senate hearing room.
Mike Collins also revealed that Aidan Maese Czeropski was the staffer who confronted Jewish Republican Ohio Rep. Max Miller about his support for Israel on Wednesday, December 13, 2023, yelling “free Palestine” in the halls of the Cannon Office Building.
On Friday, Ohio Rep. Max Miller confirmed to the Daily Wire that during a Wednesday interview with NBC News’ Ali Vitali, Sen. Ben Cardin’s staffer, Aidan Maese Czeropski, confronted him and said, ‘Free Palestine.’
While Sen. Ben Cardin’s office has yet to respond to the recent allegations against his staffer, Cardin’s office denied Czeropski was involved in a fight with Ohio Rep. Miller on Friday.
When the Daily Caller contacted Cardin’s office, they allegedly responded:
“Are you sure you have the correct person? Having seen press reports, I understood this was a House staffer. Also, the person you mention is much more junior than an LD, so perhaps there was a mix-up in identification as well? Additional information would be of help.”
Meanwhile, Czeropski has denied the accusations leveled against him in an official LinkedIn statement, stating that he loves his job and would never disrespect his workplace. Czeropski admitted that, while some of his previous actions exhibited poor judgment, he was not involved in the filming of the indecent video at the Senate Building.
