- Rep. Brandon Williams alleges that two former aides are threatening him.
- The New York Republican says the aides threatened to expose his daughter's OnlyFans account.
- Williams was previously video taped giving a profanity-laced tirade to one of the aides.
Republican Rep. Brandon Williams told Politico that two former aides threatened to retaliate over their dismissal by revealing that his 27-year-old daughter is on OnlyFans.
Williams, who is expected to face a tough reelection, was under fire after a student journalist posted a video of the lawmaker confronting Michael Gordon, one of the two former staffers, outside of a holiday party.
"Hey, f–k you! Guess what, bitch? All I have to do is pay $7 to watch your daughter shove her phone up her p—y!" Williams told Politico the other former aide, Ryan Sweeney, told him about the confrontation.
OnlyFans is the most popular subscription site for adult content, though not all of it is pornographic.
Former Rep. George Santos, who Williams voted to expel from Congress, repeatedly called attention to the video and to Williams' conduct generally. Santos, when he is not selling Cameos, has made it clear that he intends to torch many of his now-former colleagues that he believes crossed him.
In the video, Williams gets up in Gordon's face as he tells him, "You fuck with my family, I'll end every relationship that you have. Every single friend. Do you understand me?"
At the end of the video, which Politico says Sweeney filmed, Williams goes to knock the phone out of someone's hand. Luke Radel, a student journalist at Syracuse, first posted the video.
Gordon and Sweeney strongly denied that they threatened their former boss.
Gordon told Politico, "the allegations Congressman Williams has levied against me are categorically false." Business Insider was unable to reach Gordon for comment. Sweeney did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A spokesperson for Williams' office declined further comment.
