Matt Gaetz is sick and tired of the double standards that are currently playing out in Washington.
The over-dramatic arrest of Roger Stone, which was primarily the result of lying to Congress, appears to be the final straw for Gaetz. So now, he is about unleash a plan, that at the minimum, puts biased swamp tactics and double standards front and center.
In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Gaetz ripped Mueller’s indictment of Roger Stone and slammed him for becoming more of a “hall monitor” than an investigator.
On Stone’s arrest, Gaetz said, “I thought Robert Mueller was supposed to be investigating Russia collusion, but instead he has become a glorified hall monitor, enforcing the provisions of lying to Congress.”
But what is most troubling to Gaetz is that Mueller is enforcing the provisions “unequally.” He used this notion as a backdrop for his plan on how to combat it.
Gaetz told Tucker he is introducing the Justice For All Act, which he said “will create criminal referrals for the other people that we know have lied to Congress.”
He laid out his case and point for how he knows people like, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Andrew McCabe and James Clapper lied without retribution. The “Justice For All Act” will hold everyone who commits the same crime of lying to Congress equally accountable.
Gaetz then concluded this all is evidence that Robert Mueller isn’t in search of the truth and is purely “out to get Trump and the people close to Trump.” And if he wasn’t biased, there would have been action taken on others who committed the same crime as Stone. Video Below

Nancy will round file the bill. The Dems know how to use the majority much better than the Republicans did.
that was because Ryan was siding with the RATs.
It would be easier if President Trump issued an Executive Order Mandating All Congressional Referrals for Perjury be Prosecuted without Exception.
I don’t believe a Democrat has EVER been convicted of lying to Congress.
Make it retroactive as well.

The donkeys colluded with their masters on Wall Street because they did not intend to lie, just offer a different point of view. /s
“”Gaetz told Tucker he is introducing the Justice For All Act, which he said “will create criminal referrals for the other people that we know have lied to Congress.””
Best move by anyone in Congress in a long, long time. At least he’s putting his brain to use. He is pretty darned impressive whenever he appears on TV - I like him and I DO NOT WANT to be disappointed down the line..as so often happens.
Uh, Matt, where was this legislation the last two years? Call me a cynic but why do I feel I’m being used?
Typical - Congress critters boldly lie to the public daily,
but woe to the public if they return the favor.
If anyone needs to be held accountable it should be Congress. Where are the fact checkers / lie detectors when these people open their mouth?
Why isn’t there a list of all their promises showing what was kept and broken?
“Is the NSA intercepting and storing phone calls of Americans..?”
“No.”
Seems clear as hell to me, but he got off SCOTT FREE.
Meanwhile the FBI can simply say YOU LIED, and it’s an automatic crime:
If you’re important, you don’t have to obey the law, apparently.
