These are adults in their 20s. They can make choices. And having a consensual relationship with one’s boss and her husband is a choice. We do not assume coercion until proven otherwise. We assume a consensual relationship until proven otherwise.
(Insert every sneering comment Mencken offered about the remnant Puritan sensibilities in American society here.)

Apparently there's a "new" house ethics rule that strictly forbids relationships with staffers, although I haven't followed it closely enough to know if she actually had one. I thought she contested that point.
Otherwise, yeah, I don't know why she can't have whatever consensual relationships she wants, take whatever pics she wants and not expect that her ex could successfully attack her as he apparently has.
Hank's right about the tat, though. What's the deal with that?
