    It's a moot point now that Gaez stepped down.

    I don't think this story should be buried. We have information that sex crimes from politicians are being concealed from the public with payoffs involving tax payer dollars

    This is a huge scandal.

    It's not about winning or losing. It's about draining the DC swamp of sex fiends.

    Matt Gaetz is *still* a Representative-elect. Matt Gaetz only resigned his seat from the 118th Congress But he was just elected to serve in the 119th Congress, which begins in January.

    Doesn't appear Greene's threat worked in helping Gaetz get the AG job.

    Former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) is withdrawing his name from consideration to be the next U.S. attorney general amid allegations that he attended sex parties with minors.

    He announced his decision on social media Thursday after holding meetings with some of the senators whose support he would have needed to be confirmed.

    It did work in the sense that sex crimes by elected officials will continue to buried.

    True in that sense. So disgusting our elected officials are hiding such behavior. And since the claim was made about Repubs I wonder if Repubs on this forum will demand there be an investigation into the sexual harassment claims.

    What?!?!? I thought the sexual harassment done by the US elected representatives must me the best US guarded secrets, the same as nuclear weapon codes!
    Voters don't have the right to know!

    It isn't? How long has that been so?
    How is that remotely acceptable to the people?

    The more I learn about the government in the USA the more I am convinced it is the opposite of what it claims to be. Land of the free? No. Home of the brave? Not so much. Shiny beacon of Democracy for the world to follow? Not even close.

    Somebody should run on a platform of complete transparency and accountability to the public, to get rid of all of these ridiculous things, like this, and presidential pardons needing no explanation, presidents not being subject to the law, etc. That and getting money out of politics. Make that the core of a campaign.

    I don't think you should hyper fixate on sex crimes. Demand that public money not be used to settle or cover up any crimes no matter what their nature.

    Those are serious crimes of violence.

    What's up? Are you worried that Trump may be held to the same standard as Gaetz.

    Shes just pissed that Trump hasn’t given her a big job in his administration.

    I give her 2 months before she starts making a fool of herself again becasue Trump wont give her a more high profile in his administration

    I would bet good money that she has a meltdown in public for not getting a higher profile position.

    She is a VERY loose cannon that Trump need to pacify or she will loose her mind.

    All of them should be held to the same high standard. I don't care what the crimes are. If they are actual crimes and public money is being used to settle or cover them up, the public should know about it. They should not be allowed to do it secretly. This shouldn't be exclusive to sex crimes.

    But why should anyone care if she does lose her mind? Unless of course she really does know about the covering up of crimes. If she does, she should come forward with it regardless.

    ?? These sex crimes are mostly violent crimes against women.

    They should be allowed to be in jail. But, our version of Christianity doesn't see it that way.

    So, Trump gets away with it, and then picks multiple members of his prospective cabinet that are ALSO guilty of sex crimes.

    Also, the idea of REPUBLICANS chastising Dems seems totally over the top.

    If Republicans cared, they would chose those who have NOT been found guilty of sex crimes. I'm pretty sure you agree with this part.

    She’s a fame whore who is only in congress because she is in a +17 district.

    Wouldn’t be surprised at all if when he doesn't give her a high profile position, she will turn on other republicans and start the infighting that we all know is comming ;)

    Congratulations, you came to the same conclusion I did about 4 decades ago.



    The pretend US government has now evolved into a complete sh!t show stocked with sexual predators and other criminals, including war criminals. Welcome to Project 2025, the brand spanking new US policy designed to enrich and empower the wealthiest while destroying the rest of the planet. Only these morons don't seem to have a clue that they won't be enjoying their wealth and power for too long because they'll eventually suffer the same fate as the rest of the peons.

    Republicans are so corrupt, this is what MAGA is using against them and why they can't speak out against it?

    Because they are enablers. Meanwhile, they play lip service of protecting people against sex criminals.

    The guy in charge is a sex criminal loading up his administration with sex predators. The sex criminal is going to protect women's rights whether they like it or not. And MAGA women (and their men) eat up this insanity like he's giving candy to a baby.

    I’m curious who in their right mind is rooting for MTG to get her way here

    Outcome 1: the ethics report on Gaetz is never released, and Marge agrees to stay quiet about the other ethics reports

    Outcome 2: the ethics report on Gaetz is released, and in retaliation Marge does what she can to release the other ethics reports that are being kept hidden from the public

    So… what kind of person is hoping for outcome 1?
