Axios:  Matt Gaetz says he's under federal investigation for sexual misconduct

Quote

"Sounding shaken, Gaetz said that for weeks, he and his father been working with the FBI in the Northern District of Florida on the extortion case. Gaetz said his lawyers were informed by the Justice Department that "I was not a target but a subject of an investigation regarding sexual conduct with women." "

Is anyone surprised? 

Now if this was the Dems they would be immediately baying for his resignation and incarceration without allowing the investigation to conclude. The republicans will band together and support him, even after he's convicted and also give him a high paying job on Fox etc. 

I have no doubts whatsoever that he's guilty. Despite the fact that I despise the man he deserves his day in court if only to provide entertainment. 

I only hope that since Epstein didn't bring Trump down, his pedophilia will be revealed in this investigation. These guys are straight out of Sicily or Napoli.

Fixed NY Times link.

It's reported that Gaetz has had numerous girlfriends over the past few years. At some point, he  supposedly dated a 17yo, that accompanied him out of state., some of her expenses paid by him. In hot water due to the out of state travel and payment which is considered illegal when underage.

I'm not the least bit surprised. He's just repulsive any way you look at him. You would think he of all people would avoid reckless, attention-seeking antics and clownish political stunts.

It's hard to take his extortion plot accusations seriously when he has shown no qualms, and no remorse in the wake of his own very sketchy behavior on the eve of former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's appearance before Congress in 2019, whe he sent this tweet to Mr. Cohen:

“Do your wife & father-in-law know about your girlfriends? Maybe tonight would be a good time for that chat. I wonder if she’ll remain faithful when you’re in prison. She’s about to learn a lot...”

He got real contrite all of a sudden when he discovered the Florida Bar had opened an investigation for witness tampering.

Matt Gaetz behaves a bit like someone who has had little personal experience with accountability to mediate his privilege.

'Subject but not a target' eh? Sort of like how Nestor is his 'son' but not biologically or legally?

So is Tucker Carlson now going to be investigated since Gaetz essentially has implicated him in the child sex scandal? He has to be, since Gaetz also said that Tucker Carlson is an alibi with some dinner their wives were at together. The justice Dept has to corroborate that story. 

Again I won't be surprised if that past rape of Tucker Carlson that Gaetz mentioned isn't going to surface again! 

I bet Tucker Carlson is really sorry that he invited him on. 

Also, can Gaetz be able to get a forehead reduction surgery in prison? I mean that is kind of unfair for his cellmate to have to see such a big forehead daily!

For some reason, I don't think that "sorry" is something that either of these two fellows have ever experienced much.

Tucker might be if he gets caught up in this? Fox has removed a few people for sex scandals fiascos.

This incident reported to occur 2 years ago.  But Gaetz is SINGLE, never married. to my knowledge

---but claiming a "son"Nestor from Cuban friend who died of breast cancer.. "He moved to the United States to live with his older sister, who was dating and living with Gaetz at the time"

Matt just got engaged  12/30/20 (at Mar a Largo, of course!) to 26-year-old Ginger Luckey, a Harvard business school student who lives in California.

Lots of stories here-- I'm starting the next great romance novel, sure to be a blockbuster seller.  -

I think this man has exhibited reprehensible behaviors in the past, but I for one, am not a fan of body-shaming.

This fellow should be investigated for what appear to be very serious offenses.
