Minor violations...
he certainly violated a few minors
That's the joke
He's looking more and more like Jack Nicholson's Joker without the makeup every year.
They only got Hunter Biden because they were frivolously investigating him.
The party of small govt used big brother to investigate a man because his father was president.
At this point we should just be constantly investigating every member of congress/the white house/the scotus.
Cause fuck due process right? You clearly don't need any more evidence than a hunch.
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
In other news, Rep. Gaetz is introducing a federal bill to provide vouchers for daycare. When asked about it, Rep. Gaetz said "Inflation is hitting us all. I can haven't been able to find a date in months. Putting your child in day care should be a universal requirement." According to our sources, Former President Trump is fully supporting the bill and asking other members to support it as well.
Has anyone seen Nestor recently?
He's MIA for being too old.
Not enough kids in daycare to decide which one to date, gaetz?
If you supported abortions Matt then your 15 yo dates wouldn't have a kid in the first place.
He likes to drop off and pick up at the same place. One stop shop
Who gives a shit what the perp thinks? Report on the investigation itself, not some fuckwad's reaction to it.
This bullshit is just a way for Newsweek to inject spin without making it seem like an editorial.
He needs to be locked up behind many, many gatez
Frivolous would be a great name for a 16-year-old girl you fly around and pay for sex.
Ok so based on him being a republican that means he did exactly what they’re accusing him of and more.
Get his ass.
I don't see why this has to take so long either
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Since 2021, when the House was controlled by Democrats, the ethics panel has been investigating allegations that Gaetz had "engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use."
Gaetz was also previously investigated by the Department of Justice over allegations that he trafficked and engaged in sex with a minor, although charges against the congressman were later dropped and he has continued to maintain his innocence.
Gaetz on Monday suggested that the Republican-controlled committee had launched new investigations against him in a post to X, formerly Twitter, while predicting that the matter would end in his "exoneration."
Newsweek reached out for comment to the offices of Ethics Committee Chair Michael Guest and the panel's ranking Democrat, Representative Susan Wild, via email on Monday evening.
McCarthy has claimed that Gaetz's motion to vacate the speakership, which resulted in his October 2023 removal, was a "personal thing" motivated by his refusal to end the ethics committee investigation.
Gaetz has been a highly divisive figure in the House, including among his GOP colleagues, some of whom reportedly floated the idea of expelling him from the chamber at the time that he moved to oust McCarthy.
The original article contains 447 words, the summary contains 191 words. Saved 57%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
"rips" "drags" "slams"
What is with the weird word choice for modern news articles?
Lets whip out the thesaurus, use some flowery language! It can still be easy to understand but let's expand past the weird 3 verbs we've been limited to!
"Senator Matt Gaetz forgot that investigations prove innocence too, and lashes out with his comments about a new investigation into his alleged intimate relationships with high schoolers."
Really, if somebody wanted to investigate me about something I knew I was innocent about, I'd say "do your worst" not "ugh why would you investigate me" in a whiny voice.
