The gay congressional staffer who is facing an Ethics Committee investigation for “vandalizing” an anti-transgender sign posted by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is finally speaking out about the controversial congresswoman’s crusade against him.

In an interview with The Washington Blade, Tim Hysom, who has worked behind the scenes on Capitol Hill for over two decades, spoke publicly for the first time about the situation, which began in February 2021 when Greene posted an anti-trans sign in the hallway outside her former office in the Longworth House Office Building.

Greene, who vehemently opposes LGBTQ+ rights, posted the sign on a wall facing the office of Rep. Marie Newman (D-IL). Newman, a sponsor of the Equality Act whose daughter is transgender, had posted a trans pride flag outside her own office. Shortly after that, Greene posted her sign that read: “There are TWO genders: MALE & FEMALE. Trust The Science!’”

Hysom was later identified by Capitol Police as the staffer who repeatedly placed stickers featuring Bible verses on Greene’s sign. “Nobody that knows me would consider me a rabble-rouser,” Hysom explained. “Walking by those hateful signs every single day just finally got to me. I couldn’t let it go unanswered.”

Marjorie Taylor Greene rails that DOJ won’t prosecute people who put stickers on her anti-trans sign

“I felt very unsafe. I felt my life was in danger," she said about the sticker put on her sign. She forgot about the time she vandalized Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's office and terrorized her staff during her crusade to paint herself as a victim...

No, not MTG?! I'm utterly shocked she would stoop to attacking someone from the LGBTQ+ community!

Can this woman just go away to...Siberia or something...ugh. Horrible woman.

Someone should really put a portrait of Wm. Tecumseh Sherman outside her office with the words, "I done kicked your ass once back in 1864; do you want a rematch?" plastered on it.

She, and a lot of other right wing folks, really need a strong wake up call. This isn't 50, 75 or 100 years ago, this is 2022(3), we should be passed all of this by now! That they let hatred and bigotry continue to thrive in their ignorance is astounding and disgraceful. I'd say I hope they're ashamed of themselves, but like our right-leaning friend on this site, they view their ignorance as a source of pride. It's sad. Truly.

She knows good and well that there's no room or place for her BS homophobia or anything else.

Fair enough! Maybe she can join everyone else on the next penis rocket with Bezos and the lot of them can get lost in space

Sounds like typical politics. Corrupt politician gets caught and now it's oh poor me! People are being mean but I’m not going to actually show you any proof of it.
