'Unfit for office': Rep Victoria Spartz called out over 'manic' behavior of throwing furniture at staff

WASHINGTON, DC: Rep Victoria Spartz (R-In) has been reportedly named the 'worst boss' on Capitol Hill as former staffers opened up about the abuses they faced in her office, according to the Daily Mail.

The Ukrainian-born Congresswoman, who is known to be hot-tempered, is presently facing an ethics complaint over her conduct. Being described as "manic" and abusive," Spartz stands accused of throwing furniture at her aides in the office.

Complaints against Rep Victoria Spartz

According to the publication, aides of the Congresswoman are quick to quit their jobs because of the hostile work environment. An insider source shared that Spartz had "thrown shoes" at her district staff, and "blew up" at them in front of constituents on multiple occasions.

The report of Spartz being probed by the House Ethics Committee was first published by Politico, which noted that "preliminary complaints" were made into complaints surrounding her behavior. While the committee usually notifies a member of being under formal investigation, Spartz denies receiving any such communication.

Two former aides have revealed to the Daily Mail that Spartz was known to "throw furniture" at her staff, and remained "unfazed by whether people were watching" when she got enraged at public events. They further claimed to get called at "one, two, three in the morning" for the lawmaker to blame them for decisions that she had approved hours earlier.

Back in 2021, Spartz reportedly got involved in a screaming match with her chief-of-staff which led to the other aides fleeing the premises. The sources claimed that her treatment of lower staff, such as interns, volunteers, and caseworkers, was even worse, as they had to often face her profanity-laden tirades.

"They don't make a lot of money, to treat them like that was wholly uncalled for and inappropriate," shared the source.

While the Ethics Committee has officially declined to comment on the probe, Dan Hazelwood, Spartz's campaign advisor, claimed that there was none, stating, "The congresswoman has long been critical that too many in Washington want power, pay, and privilege then turn around and do nothing. When the system is held to account, we get anonymous rumors and exaggerated stories."

Internet slams Victoria Spartz

"Unfit. Unfit for public office," a user wrote over the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) responding to the news.

"Indiana doesn’t send their best," jibed another.

"She has to go," stated a third.

"She definitely gives bat shit crazy vibes," commented a fourth user.

"This chick is gonna end up in either the nut ward or jail," chided a fifth.
