Videos obtained by the Washington Reporter show staffers of the Democratic Party’s preferred Senate candidates snapping across the country.
In one instance, a woman staffing Angela Alsobrooks, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Maryland, grabbed the phone of someone who asked Alsobrooks “why [she is] lying to voters about [her] soft-on-crime record?”

Alsobrooks’s own Senate campaign has a tracker of its own, who follows Republican Larry Hogan to events ranging from visits at volunteer fire departments to Orioles playoff games, where the tracker was spotted wearing a Nationals jersey.
Another, Dan Osborn, the independent Senate candidate in Nebraska who is heavily funded by the Democratic Party’s infrastructure, had a staffer get up close and personal when an independent journalist asked Osborn “why did you create an Ashley Madison account?” referring to the website on which married individuals seek affairs. “Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, sir, sir, sir, come on,” a staffer says, while the journalist says “don’t touch me, please don’t touch me.”

Osborn told the journalist that he “didn’t” create an Ashley Madison account. His campaign has for months denied reports that Osborn’s Twitter account once liked incredibly graphic porn, and that he had an Ashley Madison account under his email address. The Washington Reporter recently reported that his opponent, Sen. Deb Fischer (R., Neb.) lambasted him for his lack of foreign policy experience.
While Osborn calls himself an independent candidate, the Washington Free Beacon reported that “socialist operatives fueled” his rise.
Beyond the videos of staffers lashing out, current House Democrats have had temper tantrums on camera, as well. Longtime Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D., Ohio) was recently filmed grabbing the phone of someone who asked her about President Joe Biden’s mental aptitude.
