Before Matt Gaetz withdrew from his Attorney General nomination today, Morning Joe was furiously kibitzing over how he could be unraveled over allegations of having sex with a minor and attending drug-fueled parties.
If they couldn't obtain the House Ethics Committee report, the Senate would conduct its own investigation, bringing live witnesses to testify as to Gaetz's activities--something that, Joe Scarborough argued, would be worse for the nominee.
That's when MSNBC Republican Elise Jordan blew the lid off it, by claiming Gaetz was an "addict" twice over. It's not simply an issue of morality:
"Your morality leads you to become compromised. And this is about not wanting a sex addict, not wanting a drug addict, having control of the nation's top secrets at the end of the day."

This thread is pretty stupid when You consider Matt Gaetz has withdrawn his nomination for Attorney General. Also Gaetz resigned from Congress, so his seat is now vacant. Potentially he could run in the special election to return to his seat in the House, but as soon as he could get sworn in, the House Ethics committee could reopen his ethics case and release it. He’s toast! And he has no future in politics in Washington, DC.
He’s a ‘Sex Addict,’ ‘Drug Addict’
With these credentials, Democrats should be falling all over themselves to vote for him.
Sue her for defamation.
I suppose you can believe they are made up but he has already admitted he made payments
Now, in addition to actual receipts I’d asked that you post, do show me where I said this is “made up” or that I believe/don’t believe anything about this claim??
Please provide proof (link to receipts) of BOTH claims you’ve made.
All I’m asking for.
Thx.
You will have to go find them.
She better be able to prove those allegations or she could be facing litigation for every nickel she has.
If this charge was libel Gaetz may have to settle for being a wealthy man.
Yeah, the 1st time I heard the women’s lawyer mention receipts and the plane flights (there would be records too), I figured no way would Gaetz survive...
A LOT of political capital was spent on this AG nomination. I have no idea if this was a screw up or some part of a master plan or if Gaetz didn’t reveal the true nature of the evidence.
Whatever happened, Gaetz has ADMITTED to payments so anyone pretending they didn’t happen isn’t paying attention.
Apparently, Senators demanded that in order to consider voting for Gaetz that he had to agree to not investigate or try and prosecute Fauci, Liz Cheney. MSNBC and others. So Mitch McConnell (who was a hard no) are going to great lengths to protect Dr Fauci, Cheney, et al. Guess they are protecting evil. Disgusting.

😂😂😂
You repeatedly say that, when asked for proof/links/receipts.
At least you’re consistent with your unsourced claims/request for proof replies.
Thx.
Supposedly Epshteyn pushed for Gaetz
I argued that at the time and still hold it potentially true, partially depending on the level of depravity.

I just saw that, on RAV.
Disgusting, indeed, that evil, old crypt keeper McConnell is protecting the above.
Not surprising, though.
I don’t have your evidentiary receipts. I am content to accept the Gaetz admission that he made payments.
If you don’t believe Gaetz then you will have to find your own receipts.
Was Hunter Biden nominated to be Attorney General?
Look, JD was taking Gaetz all over the Hill yesterday. Something happened. Trust Trump and his team. This is for the best.
“ So if this is the standard going forward, let’s make it apply universally to all elected representatives everywhere.”
Or how about just the standard for Attorney General nominees 60 days before inauguration, leading the parade of 30+ other people needing confirmation?
Come on people!
I wonder what the timing was? Payments in advance? Payments shortly after? Payments 6 months later?
Again, where did I say I don’t believe Gaetz?
You’re catfishing.
Just provide the link(s) ... to his receipts and where I have said “I don’t believe what he did/didn’t do?
I can’t say I “Agree” but your instinct makes sense.
