The Washington Examiner ^ | October 24 | Madison Dibble

Posted on 10/29/2019 9:48:18 PM PDT by PghBaldy

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz called the ethics investigation into Rep. Katie Hill “absurd” amid claims she had multiple affairs with members of her staff.

Last week, allegations that Hill had two separate affairs with staff members surfaced. The first allegation claimed Hill has a romantic relationship with Graham Kelly, her current legislative director.

This is just absurd. The only person who seems to have a gripe is @RepKatieHill’s soon-to-be ex.

Who among us would look perfect if every ex leaked every photo/text?

Katie isn’t being investigated by Ethics or maligned because she hurt anyone - it is because she is different.

Little Mattie Gaetz seems to be a little sad about this. Poor baby.

Congress is quite interesting. They can F the country, F the people, F the Constitution, F news reporters, F little boys, F children at Epstein island, etc... but apparently you cannot F a person who works in your office.

But if you do, you can use taxpayer dollars to pay them off and it remains secret.

I’m sure one of the Federalist Papers addresses this...

Yep, literally no one else in the country cares about Hill's sexual escapades with underlings. It must be some strange computer virus that is responsible for all the apparent anger and outrage in the Internet - couldn't be actual outraged voters.

OTOH Gaetz is one of Pres. Trump’s staunchest defenders.

Gaetz is as strong a Trump man as there is

He is though quite loud and colorful and doesn’t mind mixing it up publicly with whomever

You can do that when you represent maybe the most conservative voting district in America if you are Trumps biggest cheerleader and at times imitator

Is there much anger and outrage? Contempt, disgust, prurient curiosity, ridicule, pity, and the usual attacks from one side of the political divide against the other, sure, but anger and outrage?

People on the Internet are geared up to be "angry" and "outraged" at politicians they disagree with, but are they really angry and outraged, or just going after the target that presents itself?

Sounds like a joke I heard.

A Muslim, A Communist, and an illegal alien walk into a bar. Bartender says “What can I get you, Mr President?”

Gaetz just got dragged HARD today by the Twitter Lefties (#MattGaetzIsATool).

He just laughed at them.

Gaetz was with Trump and Melania at the ball game when Trump got booed. Gaetz is a mensch, and he's got game.

Gaetz is usually good, but he’s dead wrong on this.

Try sleeping with a staff member in the private sector and see what happens. Congress shouldn’t have special rules.

So he thinks kinky sex with multiple strangers with your spouse watching is now perfectly ok for congresspeople? He also thinks it’s ok to screw your staff members? Maybe she had equal sex with each person who worked in the office, so there was no appearance of impropriety??
