Democratic House member's estranged wife accuses him of bullying and intimidation (Horsford - Nevada)

The estranged wife of Rep. Steven Horsford is accusing the Nevada Democrat of bullying and intimidation, including digging through trash to find dirt on her.

Sonya Douglass’s charges against the congressman come a bit over a week before Horsford faces voters in the northern Las Vegas area and rural central Nevada 4th Congressional District. Horsford and two Nevada House Democratic colleagues, Reps. Susie Lee and Dina Titus, each face tough reelection fights in the Silver State, which, along with tight Senate and governor races, has turned into a premier 2022 electoral battleground. Republicans are focused on capturing all three seats in their bid to win a House majority on Nov. 8.

Douglass’s criticisms of Horsford came in an emoji-filled Twitter thread on Sunday.

Douglass, a professor and the director of the Black Education Research Center at Columbia University’s Teachers College in New York City, has for some time been unenthusiastic about Horsford’s reelection bid. On March 24, she implored Horsford not to run for another term, nearly two years after he admitted to having an on-and-off affair with a woman 15 years his junior starting in 2009, when she was a 21-year-old college senior.

Horsford, the first black member of Congress from Nevada, in May 2020 admitted to carrying on a long-standing affair with a former intern for Harry Reid, the late Democratic Senate majority leader. The woman, who goes by the pseudonym “Love Jones,” began sharing her story on the Mistress for Congress podcast. She has also shared screenshots of messages with Horsford dating back to 2018.

Seven months ago, Sonya Douglass asked for privacy for herself and her three children. But now she’s again publicly chastising her husband’s behavior.

If she wants democrats to abandon her husband she should say he is demanding that she take the kids to church.
