Another Republican gets another mulligan. Must be America.
Yikes, it’s never the people you want to see pantsless, is it?
How is this shapeless adipose abomination in any position to interfere sexually with anyone?
They’re in Marnie’s house. The pants will be returned publicly and embarrassingly.
grange display, soup, or wearing them yourself?
I never liked putting them in the soup, cause the soup was the best way to get everyone maxed quickly.
I honestly don’t understand why these people can’t just wait til they get home, behind closed doors, to do their pervy shit.
What is the appeal of doing this in a public place? It can’t be that thrilling that it’s worth ruining your whole life over.
Bruh some people get their best thrills by doing risky sex.
Oh I know.
I just don’t understand THIS level of risk.
You should have seen Lemmy NSFW lol
Probably fair. :)
wait til they get home to do their pervy shit
What was pervy about this, apart from being in public?
Are we at the “sex isnt inherently sexual” part of society already???
Are we at “sex is pervy” now?
If he has to pay then she’s a prozzie not a journo

This is a very serious situation and the law must be given time to run its course.
“It never goes away,” Dingler said. “It’s distracting.”
If it doesn’t go away after 4 hours, consult your physician.
I rarely wear pants at work. Same with my partner.
Why are these fucking prudes making a big deal about this, but not about his polices?
Why can’t we force people who support fascist polices to resign?
As the mayor, he should issue a municipal fine to himself for the crime of “being awesome”, and then the journalist can publish the story of him ‘paying’ for his infraction.
Just meme into it hard.
So let’s just assume his excuse is false and he was actually there having sex with the journalist. Let’s be honest, he almost certainly was. If you lose respect for the guy over the act or the lying to excuse it and don’t want to vote for him to represent you, I get that. If you’re his wife and want a divorce, absolutely. If you’re his child or family and embarrassed by his behavior and don’t want to be around him, fine.
Short of that, like… who gives a shit? “He’s got to pay” “It’s an insult to the city.” Really? Because he had casual sex with another consenting adult that isn’t his subordinate? Because he did that in a (closed) government building? Why does that matter? Why does that need to be punished? Why does he need to lose his career over it? Of all of the less than righteous things someone in a leadership position could do with their power, the thing I care the absolute least about is consenting adult sex in a government building after hours. Hell I’m not even an adventurous person and I’ve had sex parked in a dark parking lot and in a closed store. Should I “have to pay” for those dalliances, and lose my career over it?
Reading the article, I think it’s because the dude tried to use his mayoral power to delete the video. There’s two lawsuits about it. That’s probably why people still give a shit.
Also it’s a small town, not much going on there
Ah I didn’t see that part. That does move beyond lying to cover up embarrassing sexual event to destruction of public property.
I’m sure also people see it as paying money to help organize benefits for their area, and then when they asked what happened with their money they see dude getting shit faced drunk without pants on and using the excuse he vomited on himself off their money, in the building they paid to build… They think resigning is the respectable thing to do. Government jobs are supposed to be civil servants, not night clubs.
Well that’s a stupid take too. I do my job and my employer pays me. That money is now mine. What I do with that money within the bonds of the law is no one’s fucking business. That goes for elected officials too. I don’t care if the an official spends every spare dime of his money getting drunk on nights and weekends if he’s still competently doing his job. Idk if he is competently doing his job, but I don’t think this necessarily indicates that he’s not either. And if getting drunk once is enough to indicate someone shouldn’t hold office, that’s bad news for nearly every American politician.
If the line is drawn at the door of any goverment building especially one that’s isn’t currently open and doing business, that’s strange too. They’re not hollowed ground or holy sites. They’re administrative buildings. People working there are people. They piss and shit in those buildings. They microwave fish. They spread their shitty fucking colds. If the very idea that someone may have had consenting sex in one of the rooms disturbs you, I would suggest you not go into any building ever. Someone has almost certainly been fucking there at some point.
Your view is that him getting shit faced drunk and all damages and injuries that occur should be covered by the public. We aren’t his servants. If you want to do whatever you want, dont do it on the property where we will held liable. Also I agree it shouldn’t matter who you fuck, but if it’s a journalist/reporter, all subject matter pertaining to your position is now null and void. It’s like fucking the health inspector, someone else needs to be doing the inspection then.
Your view is that him getting shit faced drunk and all damages and injuries that occur should be covered by the public.
What damages? What injuries? What the hell are you talking about? If there were any, then of course those would be his responsibility. I saw no mention of anyone being hurt by him at all though.
We aren’t his servants.
No shit? Who said otherwise?
If you want to do whatever you want, dont do it on the property where we will held liable.
Again, what are you talking about? Held liable for what?
Also I agree it shouldn’t matter who you fuck, but if it’s a journalist/reporter, all subject matter pertaining to your position is now null and void.
I’m really not sure what you mean by “subject matter pertaining to your position” or “null and void”. Those words don’t seem to mean anything at all in this context. But if your concern is that an elected official is having sex with a journalist, there’s literally nothing wrong with that so long as it’s not coercive (like to get/stop a story, for example). Elected officials are allowed to fuck and even marry journalists, my guy.
It’s like fucking the health inspector, someone else needs to be doing the inspection then.
You’re suggesting that this creates a conflict of interest, and it very well may. But that conflict is the journalist’s who writes the stories, not the official’s who is the subject of them. So I still don’t see how this matters for his job at all.
Yes, if I had sex at my workplace and got caught literally in public with my pants down, I’d expect (and deserve) to be fired. Come on. It is such a low bar to clear. Society has basic expectations
That’s not what I said. If the city council wants to fire him, I’m sure that’s in their power. But for some random dude they interviewed to feel like this guy needs to be taken down, it’s ridiculous.
Why wouldn’t a random dude want someone like this out of office? I do too.
If you care more about this dude having sex in his off hours at an inappropriate location than literally any other detail of his performance as an elected official, then you’re as ridiculous as that guy, yes. Actually you’re probably way more ridiculous because they are at least one of his constituents, and I’m guessing you are not. If that is the case, you need to majorly sort out your priorities. This purity test shit, is nonsense.
Yes, I am unapologetic about demanding politicians nationwide of either party clearing this very low bar of wearing clothes, and not having sex in their office and/or vomiting on themselves without explanation.
Good for you. Lets hope your standards for conduct that actually matters for their job are as high.
So what? They are consenting adults, maybe dumb. What does it matters where they fuck?
Top tier excuse here
“He has publicly apologized for what he called an innocent visit to town hall, spurred by a bad reaction he had to alcohol and medication that eventually made him vomit. He has told people he took off his pants to clean them,” according to The Journal.
Ohhh, okay, he was just drunk and high, well okay then
I’m a little curious how he managed to get vomit on his pants and not his suit coat or shirt.
Also it was the middle of the day. What was he doing with alcohol… and how come he didn’t know his medication reacted with alcohol?
Right, this clearly is not Mom’s spaghetti
I think the secret clues are in what he’s not saying. First, he never said it was a prescribed medicine. My bet, since we already know he was day drinking, is that it was a recreational substance.
Second, he never actually says he got vomit on his pants. He just says that the mix “eventually” made him vomit. It’s likely that he was so messed up from his booze and pharmaceutical cocktail that he shit himself and he’s leaving that part out.
That or he just ditched his pants to rub one out, which is where I’d put my money.
He ditched his pants to fuck a journalist
Unlucky he didn’t just teleport to a Waffle House instead
Yeah, vomiting out of his dick, maybe.
The incident involving Mooresville Mayor Chris Carney and has outraged — and also amused — people in the town nicknamed Race City USA after its long history with NASCAR.
“The episode occurred in 2024 but is now bubbling up on multiple fronts,” The Journal reported. “Three former town employees are suing Mooresville officials, alleging retaliation for their efforts to preserve the footage or investigate. Town commissioners passed a no-confidence vote this month urging Carney to quit. And a judge last week ordered the town to release video of the incident, a move the town forestalled by appealing Wednesday.”
I couldn’t find the video footage. Can someone link it?
the town nicknamed Race City USA
😳
after its long history with NASCAR.
😮💨
Still pretty racist, I’ve been there plenty of times
Well there was the noose thing in the black guy’s garage that time.
NASCAR not Race City isn’t the relief, but I might have missed the sarcasm too.
But it comes with a free frogurt!
I had the same first thought
Dude needed a pit crew
Sounds like it hasn’t been released yet on account of that appeal by the town.
