I'm not sure I like this pick. I love Gaetz, and think he would do a great job, but I think we will miss having him in the House. I don't trust the establishment Republicans at all, and Gaetz was one of the few willing to fight them.
I think using the executive to bully congress for 4 years is going to be more effective in the long run then trying to do the reverse.
I hope you are right.
House cleaning is the priority here and I agree with it.
I fucking love this. The DOJ attempted to get a man to blackmail his father into putting up several million dollars to a fake rescue mission for American citizens (who died in prison in Iran), or they'd put out a smear piece that Matt had sex with a 16 year old intern. When Matt found out about the blackmail, he called their bluff, went on Tucker Carlson and publicly stated that he was being blackmailed by the DOJ, and said the story was bullshit.
The story was released by exactly who Matt said was blackmailing his father, the intern was 18 (not 16), and explicitly stated that she never had sex with Matt and had only been on a flight with him and the rest of his staff.
I'm going through all of that to point out that Matt Gaetz is fully fucking aware of the corruption in the DOJ, which means that the Deep Staters are gonna be fucked.
Fantastic choice.
However, I will be very surprised if he is confirmed.
Me too. Trump's team is well aware of it and I expect them to use their clout to push those confirmations. Elon is even threatening to throw lots of money at primarying out all the reps who don't play ball.
These seem like banana republic tactics, but dammit I want my country back.
If Musk is willing to use his money as a spoiler for the Soros money, that sounds a de-bananafication to me.
Fighting fire with fire, that is all.
We're already there anyway, and the first step out of a banana republic is taking control of the supply of bananas.
The only ways back from a corrupt gov to a gov by and for the people are by violence, or by a final act of beneficence by someone who can out hustle the hustlers at their own games.
Interesting to see all the allegedly Republican senators on twatter pretty much saying "over my dead body".
The wicked flee when no man pursueth...
Makes me wonder what skeletons they have rattling around in their closets.
We already know the system is shit because of both sides. They don’t want young upstarts fucking up their portfolio or daring to hold them accountable.
I was holding out for a real firebreather who would go into the DoJ and wield a scythe like the Undertaker to lop off heads and post them on pikes. I don't think Matt Gaetz will do that because Matt has not shown himself to be an outside the box thinker.
He is definitely a guy who enjoys being inside a box, if you catch my drift
Gaetz certainly seems combative enough to fire people
So Trump is continuing his campaign to remove as many non-neocons from the legislature as possible. Yay, self inflicted dem majority. So much winning.
If Gaetz' DoJ will actually prosecute the cheaters then we'll have a lot more Gaetzes elected.
"Fucking idiot lost his rook LOL--"
"Checkmate."
I like this pick but he is going to get cloberred. The tradcucks and the left are going to unite over the muh 17 year old "p3d0" shtick.
I guess we shouldn't even try, then
Despair is poison to action.
Well Idisnt say that. Gaetz and Tulsi are his only good picks. Will be fun to watch the reees before we all get vaporized.
