BREAKING: Matt Gaetz Pulls Out Of AG Nomination

  • 10 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

UPDATE: The plot thickens as CNN alleges Matt Gaetz’s pullout came just ahead of new revelations of even more sexual misconduct:


As Tweeted by former Rep. Matt “Giggity” Gaetz moments ago, the congressman best known for being investigated by the Justice Department for sex trafficking will not be the nation’s top law enforcement officer after all:

After abruptly resigning his seat in Congress to dodge the release of the Ethics Committee’s report into his conduct, Matt Gaetz is suddenly out of a job–at least for now, since it’s entirely possible Gaetz will get a job somewhere in the Trump administration that doesn’t require the Senate confirmation Gaetz appears to have been informed was hopelessly out of reach. We’ll update with reactions to this significant early loss for Trump from Gaetz’s close friend Rep. Lauren Boebert and others as they come in.

    1. If it wasn't so obscene, these puns and sexual innuendo would be funny. As it is, the guy is a pervert preying on young women. At least he won't be our top law enforcement official.

  1. Aw, man!  Gaetz was going to eliminate almost all crime(s)!  The only thing left to prosecute was being a member of the Democratic Party!  As for any other former illegal acts, he was going to take his lead from Trump and “Go Wild!”

     

  2. You can’t fix (Trump) stupid.  True, Matt Gaetz’s appointment is delayed, but it’s still an eventuality down the road in this misadministration, and Gaetz’s proclivities will someday give new meaning to the term “playground recess appointment.”

    Next criminal at bat — Ken Paxton.

    Thump’s America: The home of the free (felons).

  3. Get him on a tax charge!

    I want to know if he had an under-the-table (NO pun intended) nanny for whom he failed to pay taxes. How many Democratic appointments were cancelled due to stupid peccadillos (again, NO pun intended).

    For that matter, did Gaetz pay taxes for the sexual favors he was purchasing?

  4. I would've loved to have seen Kevin McCarthy's face when he read Matt Gaetz saying, "There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle…"

  5. Lest we soon forget in all out delight, just how much of a turd filling in a platter of footlong turd sandwiches is House Speaker Mike Johnson and the Republican House “Ethics” Committe???

    They had the report(s) and they all knew the crimes.
