Toxic combination of WP:ATTACKPAGE and WP:NOTNEWS. Congressional staffers are not inherently notable, regardless of how many controversies they were involved in. KidAd •  SPEAK  21:41, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep. "Congressional staffers are not inherently notable", but they're also not inherently not notable: a WP:GNG pass is sufficient to establish notability. The coverage in The Atlantic, Foreign Policy, the Weekly Standard, and POLITICO, just to name a few, is clearly substantial enough, and the stories stem from different events, so WP:BLP1E wouldn't apply. The article is perhaps a somewhat unsympathetic portrayal of Harvey, but that can be dealt with via editing: deletion is not cleanup. And the article provides sufficient encyclopedic context to resolve any WP:NOTNEWS concerns. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 17:43, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
