Gaetz left himself vulnerable by participating in those sex parties with the hookers. I almost think that it was an intentional trap by the powers that be because it’s exactly the same playbook that Epstein used to blackmail people. Bottom line is that you can’t fuck that many hookers as a member of congress and expect all of them to STFU. And if this thing was a honeypot all along, well then Matt played himself.
I thought "sex work is real work", according to the enemy that now wags their finger about how he shouldn't be AG.
Only the right plays these purity games. When it comes to seizing power, the left just does it. Look at Garland, Ketanji Jackson, and all of the other Biden appointees (on behalf of his puppet masters). The lesson here is to not let perfection be the enemy of good.
The reason they can do this is because they have all the institutional power on their side. Its not just our own side shooting itself.
Its them applying the law whenever it suits them, its them discarding the rules when its in their way, its them screaming the story one way and burying the truth for all the people who can't be plugged in 24/7 to have the scoop on everything.
Its beyond a "just don't engage" level problem.
It was exactly that. Joel Greenburg was using DMV record to scout talent and engaging in extortion using those underage prostitutes. When the DOJ went after Greenburg, instead off throwing the book at him, they chose to give him a deal to try and get dirt on Gaetz. The press and the DOJ itself framed it as if Gaetz was involved in Greenburg's sex trafficking. In reality, Gaetz was probably a target and victim.
In short, the FBI tried to use an testimony of a (now convicted) extortionist pimp to get rid of an unpopular Republican. Then Greenburg turned out to be so unreliable they couldn't make anything stick, so they sealed the files.
