Married MAGA Rep’s Suicide Staffer Made Bombshell Affair Claim

A Republican congressman had an affair with one of his aides who later died after setting herself on fire outside her Texas home, according to a report.

Rep. Tony Gonzales, who is up for re-election in Texas’ 23rd District, had an affair with his district director, Regina Ann “Regi” Santos-Aviles, the San Antonio Express-News reported, citing text messages sent by Santos-Aviles.

The congressional staffer went into a deep depression when her husband found out about the affair, and then Gonzales ended the relationship. Santos-Aviles, a mother of an 8-year-old boy, died after setting herself alight in the garden of her Uvalde home last September.
