But Mr. Gaetz, who was just re-elected to a fifth term, remains under ethics investigation for his conduct, which includes allegations of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use; sharing inappropriate images or videos on the House floor; misusing state identification records; converting campaign funds to personal use; and accepting impermissible gifts under House rules. Mr. Gaetz has denied the allegations as political payback and said they are built on lies.

Every liberal, everywhere should be looking over their shoulder. The Jan 6th hearings should look like a cake walk after Trump is done.
Anyone that said Nazi should be sent to jail. Every one of them.

I hope you're right. This dude should be no where near the AG's office.Osodecentx said:Porteroso said:
He won't be confirmed. It is a message that Trump will continue the DOJ's politicization, and it will make the next look more moderate.
Senate Republicans reacted with alarm and dismay to President-elect Donald J. Trump's decision to nominate Representative Matt Gaetz, Republican of Florida, for attorney general, and several said they were skeptical that he would be able to secure enough votes for confirmation.
"He's got his work really cut out for him," Senator Joni Ernst, Republican of Iowa, said, chuckling as she spoke.

Now we are talking!
FBI dropped the case in 2023 due to lack of evidence.Mitch Blood Green said:Adriacus Peratuun said:
1) gets him out of Speaker Johnson's hair and will make the HOR run much more smoothly,
2) insure that the housecleaning at Justice will be done with a flamethrower and a chainsaw instead of with a scalpel,
3) provide a useful scapegoat if the public thinks the gutting has gone too far, and
4) make certain that even a hint of bureaucratic resistance is met with heads on spikes.
Quits before house ethics committee report on him with underaged girls gets released.
While I am not a Gaetz fan, I also know the nonsense of FBI's claims without evidence leading to a HOR investigation smacks of Lawfare.

You are talking nonsense if you think the investigation simply disappears. The Ds will run wild with it.
A fair minded person will want to see what evidence exists before rendering any judgment.
You are simply throwing bombs without any proof. Baylor people should be better than that type of nonsense.

At the end of the day, Gaetz nomination only gets withdrawn in a deal with Senate R's to guarantee his 2nd pick is approved.
Alternatively, Gaetz gets a Recess appointment and spends two years dismantling Justice at a feverish pace.
Trump made one huge error his first time, he populated his team with "proven" Rs from prior R admins which meant Bush people which meant permanent insiders. He clearly means to clean house in a big way as every targeted part of the executive branch will be lead by populist outsiders. The reality of that happening has the R insiders in full panic. Military. Intelligence. Justice. FBI. DHS. HHS
The insiders see the broom approaching and it is huge.
2024 is very much not 2016. The populists are no longer simply happy to have a place at the table.

How is anyone afraid of the Establishment Wing of the Republican Party.
They are dinosaurs. Dead. Buried. Starting to rot.
Did folks not watch the R primary?
The battle is over. The Establishment Wing lost. Badly. Really badly.
Play ball with the Populist Wing or get the bat shoved up your ass.

Any chance this is 4D chess to get rid of Gaetz ... he resigned from Congress, Senate does not confirm. Gaetz cancer gone for good?
I am excited to work with my friend @mattgaetz. There are few people I trust more to take on the deep state and end the weaponization of the justice department.

They corrupt the entire Congress
A little bigger deal than the DOJ
Admittedly havent been following politics much since covid racket went away.
But my general rule of thumb is 'whoever the dems hate most' is who I want appointed. Sounding like Gaetz may be a great move! (If establishment Rs and all Ds hate him... oh baby dis gone be guud!)

It is concerning that you zealots want Donald Trump to "dismantle justice." And you are wanting Trump to fire everyone in the "military, intelligence, justice, FBI, DHS, HHS," and replace them with yes men and women.

genius choice. Printers at DOJ are on overload getting resume's ready for jobs at Democrat law firms.KaiBear said:
Bizarre choice, unless Trump plans to go scorched earth.
Guess what comes around, goes around.
After what Garland did, total reset is in order. Let him do the dirty work, then let someone else come in & rebuild it properly.

Let's meet and the middle and just agree to fire them and not replace them with anyone for a while…
But of course you would be against that.
Because at the end of the day you don't want to down size the Federal Super State.
You are more scared of DC losing power than you are of a "Trump controlled" DC

Like most of your posts
That does not make a lot of sense
But ok
Guys, guys, please calm down. We are finally getting some normalacy back in the USA today and we should all be ecstatic. We are about to cut our national debt by a couple of trillion dollars. We are getting the boys out of the girls bathrooms. We are eliminating transgenders from the military. We are unweaponizing the DOJ. We are... well the list just keep going on.
There is nothing for either side to be upset about. So relax. Enjoy the ride!

Gaetz is a terrible pick and the fact that Ken Paxton approves only makes it worse.
