Summary
The House Ethics Committee found “substantial evidence” that former GOP congressman Matt Gaetz engaged in statutory rape, prostitution, drug use, and obstruction of Congress.
The report alleges Gaetz paid a 17-year-old for sex in 2017. Gaetz denies the claims, citing no criminal charges from a prior DOJ investigation.
He filed for a restraining order to block the report’s release, calling it “unprecedented overreach.”
Despite GOP resistance, the bipartisan committee voted to publish the findings after a four-year probe into alleged misconduct, including payments tied to drug-fueled sex parties.
Wow, with a glowing record like that, it’s no wonder Trump wanted him for the Attorney General.
you might think of course they’re so similar but apparently he was actually not entirely sure about the pick at first because gaetz wasn’t trying to fuck his own daughter, but then he thought close enough.
Him? Seems like any AG will sweep shit under the table.
Exactly, that’s what I’ve been saying too! All of this will just make his base more enamored with him.
This isn’t news to anybody that’s been paying attention. I want to hear comments from every single one of his associates in Congress that either denied the allegations on his behalf, defended him against the allegations, or voted against releasing this report. I want to know why they were ‘in the dark’ when people across the country outside Congress knew he was guilty.
On a side note, I’d also like to hear from Google as to why their shitty AI pops up on every single internet search, except when I ask for a list of people that have defended Matt Gaetz over the years. It doesn’t even give up Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Matt Gaetz ethics report finds ‘substantial evidence’ he participated in statutory rape, prostitution
And drugs and witness tampering and obstruction of Congress and being gross and skeezy
It would be weirder for a Republican politician to not be raping people
He’s just a murder shy of being the perfect GOP candidate.
Why not just out law prosecuting white, rich, powerful, protestant, Anglo-Saxon men who are registered GOP?
Seems like an easy way to avoid this headache if they are going to do whatever the fuck they want anyway
MFr looks like a live action dr seuss villain and plays the part.
I suspect some MAGA voters view raping kids as just a manly thing to do.
The word some is doing a lot of work here.
And nothing will be done to give this junkie rapist kiddie-fucker the justice he deserves.
Even if he doesn’t serve time, I’d like to think he’ll never hold an elected office ever again now at least
I think sexual misconduct with a minor is a prerequisite for a GOP cantidate, especially in FL. I am sure some have been grandfathered into the GOP prior to this unwritten rule being implemented.
Trump ran and got elected. Similar charges.
Plus a metric fuck ton more
The Republicans named their favorite house rule after a pedophilic former speaker of the house. They just re elected a convinced rapist and con man. I don’t have your confidence.
Trump just got reelected after 4 years to think about it. I wouldn’t be too sure that Gaetz is done.
Teflon Gaetz doesn’t have the same ring to it.
No, but Matt Raepz does.
Trump just got elected to the highest position in the country. There is no standard anymore.
There was a time when I would believe that could happen.
These days, being a criminal (and personally loyal to Trump) seems to be a pre-requisite for being appointed to a cabinet position.
I do not consider him making several million dollars a year at GOP speaking engagements and hosting Fox News to be considered “justice“.
Ahahahahahah
I’d like to think that, too. But I don’t.
Still not a drag queen.
Just another Republican.
“Shocking,” said no one.
Great. Let’s make him president then!
/s
Sssshhhhuuuuutuuuuuuup
[audible but clearly sarcastic gasp]
So IOW they just released this to allow him to favorably pad his cv for his new job at OANN.
