Matt Gaetz to speak at Women for America First summit amid trafficking probe

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz has been tapped as a “special guest” at the upcoming Women for America First summit in Miami — as he battles accusations that he paid for sex with women, including an underage girl.

The embattled Republican congressman was announced as a headline speaker at the pro-Trump group’s four-day “Save America Summit” beginning Thursday.

“Rep Matt Gaetz has been a fearless leader in DC. Few members of Congress have been more willing than Matt to stand up & fight on behalf of President Trump & his America First Agenda,” Women for America First tweeted Tuesday. “We are honored to have @RepMattGaetz speak at the #SaveAmericaSummit!”

Gaetz — a staunch ally of former President Donald Trump — will give a speech Friday night at the summit, which is being held at Trump National Doral golf course in Miami, Fox News reported.

It will likely mark the first time the three-term congressman will speak in front of a live audience since it emerged that he’s under federal investigation

Hopefully their faith in Gaetz is justified and this doesn't come back to bite them. The timing is not great.

This means that Women for America First has vetted the allegations against Matt and found those allegations to be 100 percent false.

Any proof

Haven't seen any yet. But the fact that people thought they had enough on Gaetz to blackmail him for $25 million is not a good sign.

Why? Remember innocent until you have proof.

Of course - and so far, there have only been insinuations against Gaetz. No accusers, no charges. And with guys like Andrew Cuomo refusing to resign in the face of multiple accusations by women who've come forth, there's no way Gaetz should do anything except stand tough right now.

That's why I said "hopefully" - there's no proof of anything. But the fact that a couple of guys with government backgrounds thought they could shake down Gaetz and his father for millions is worrying. Again, hopefully the Women for American First folks don't get bitten.

The blackmail was just a second try to have him be found guilty of doing something illegal.
