She's not even in Congress anymore. On top of that she tried to kill herself, so I thought that would have been enough to satisfy Republicans need for revenge for her daring to "steal" a congressional seat from them, but apparently you all are never satisfied.
And that excuses her abuse of her staff how?

I'm really not going to argue with you, but my point was that hacking her account is really pointless because she's not even in Congress anymore. No need for you to reply.

There’s arguably a point to it a when a film is being planned on her time in Congress. That’s the biggest platform they could get to tell producers that it was not a good idea to minimise her abuse or glorify her.

For what it's worth, Hill claimed this account was hacked. The passwords and so forth were turned over the the House clerk when she resigned, so no ex staffer should legitimately be able to access the account.

Wait...why wouldn't ex staff be able to access the account?  If staff managed the page when she was in Congress, then presumably some of the staff knew the login information.  Did the House clerk disable the account or change the login information?

But yes...Democrats always choose the worst martyrs to rally around.  Hill is an objectively terrible, unprofessional boss who is whining that her personal life drug her out of public office when she blurred what should be very clear lines between the two.

This, at least, is confirmed to not have happened (although it should have). Congressional accounts are supposed to be archived when Reps leave, but hers had been overlooked. It's quite possible any password change(s) was overlooked at the same time.
