A staffer for U.S. Rep. Ryan Mackenzie (R-PA) has been accused of wiping the congressmans Wikipedia page of a paragraph detailing the lawmakers Tinder scandal from last year, according to a Daily Mail report.
While he was running for Congress last June, Mackenzie was found to have lied about his age on a Tinder dating profile by eight years, claiming to be 29 when he was actually 37. Last week, the Daily Mail reported that a section on Mackenzies Wikipedia page had been deleted by a user that may be linked to the congressmans staff.
According to the report, Wikipedia user ATown1516 made the edits and deleted the paragraphs about the scandal. Mackenzies communications director Arnaud Armstrong reportedly used to live in Allentown at a house that included the address 1516.
ATown1516 made numerous edits between May 2024 and last March, making edits like removing Mackenzies support of false 2020 election denial and votes against reproductive rights in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.
