Washington’s rumor mill is in overdrive with whispers of a steamy cross-aisle romance between two sitting members of Congress from different parties.
Apparently, the unconfirmed story has been quietly circulating for months in political circles, especially in Michigan, where it’s reportedly been weaponized as opposition research in a GOP primary battle. Names are starting to surface in the usual places, and the usual suspects are already trying to shut it down.
Sorta.
It's everywhere already so it's not like they can actually shut it down ... just sayin'.
In a town where leaks are currency and scandals are entertainment, this one has all the ingredients: power, secrecy, and that delicious bipartisan flavor that makes the chattering class lose their minds.
Stay tuned—these things rarely stay buried for long.
There are unconfirmed rumors circulating that two members of Congress from different political parties are engaged in a romantic affair.

I can't disclose anymore information than that.
But of course, it's X, so they disclosed more and more ... as one does on social media.

Ahem a third time.
Fascinating watching a rumor float around only to be solved in real-time because it's on X, don't you think?
