There is not much a person can say to a member of Congress hiding behind the speech and debate clause of the Constitution.
I can however respond to a member arrogant enough to repeat defamatory claims on social media.
See below for the $10 million libel lawsuit filed today.

After this, Republicans gave Matt Taibbi time to defend himself.

It’s telling that he didn’t.

The statement and related conversations involve a public dispute over allegations of sexual harassment, a serious societal issue. The tone is defensive and confrontational, with legal action being mentioned. The statement aims to refute allegations and challenge the accuser's claims.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement attempts to defend against harm to reputation, but the confrontational tone may not fully align with striving to do no harm.
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement respects privacy by not disclosing personal details but engages in a public dispute that could affect dignity. [-1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement is confrontational and does not engage in constructive dialogue, focusing instead on legal action. [-1]
