Matt #Gaetz is a sexual predator of girls, user of illegal drugs, and recipient of illegal bribes, and every single Republican on the House Ethics committee voted to hide that information from us when Trump wanted this criminal to be our Attorney General.
Here's the full report.

Good morning. It's 6AM, Friday, 22nd November. The headlines: #Russia has initiated another missile attack on #Ukraine, with President #Putin acknowledging ballistic missiles were deployed. The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for #Israel's Benjamin #Netanyahu over alleged crimes against humanity. In the US, Matt #Gaetz has retracted his bid for Attorney General, with Pam Bondi being the new nominee. #BBC #News

I detest Matt Gaetz, and he is a creep for sleeping with a 17 year old at his age, but the age of consent is 16 or 17 in most states, so we really need to concentrate on more important stuff, like the two batshit crazy billionaires in charge of the totally made up, extragovernment agency called the Department of Government Efficiency. Don't let Trump distract you from the two men behind the curtain.

I think Senate #Republicans hate Matt #Gaetz more than facing Trump’s wrath for not confirming his nomination for Attorney General.

Via Kyle Griffin:

New from NBC News: More than half of Senate Republicans, including some in senior leadership positions, are privately saying they don't see a path for Matt #Gaetz to be confirmed as Attorney General and would not support him to lead the Department of Justice.

I thought I’d feel a bit better since the election, but a kind of sadness, anger and disbelief has settled over me. The thought of #Gaetz as AG is horrifying, SCOTUS situation and other nominees have me paralyzed. Trying to slow down on social media, because I get myself sick.

Question: How will appointing #RFK Jr. to Health and Human Services & Matt #Gaetz as #AttorneyGeneral help bring down the price of eggs?

Answer:
HA! It was never about the price of eggs! It was about not voting for a woman and sticking it to the libs.

"Trump's choice of Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard for top roles signals darkness and chaos ahead. … This shows right off the bat that MAGA chaos is going to reign."

Several of them tell me that getting their parents, other elders, friends of that generation, to acknowledge that they made a colossal mistake in colluding with the Nazis was never possible. Their parents and elders could not and would not admit that they had made horrible choices even when the error of their ways was glaringly obvious in the destroyed nation all around them.

Helping to usher in a fascist regime, as many Germans did in the Nazi period, inevitably leads to chaos, rubble, destruction — including for the very people who made the decision to help the process.

But getting people to see the folly of their very stupid, blind choices even when everything is in rubble around them: that's not easy.

I have German friends who were children during WWII.

Let's hope. Let's hope that the chaos Trump is inducing, his attempt to break the government and expose it to ridicule — serving Putin's wildest dreams — shows many of us including some Republicans who a clown show he runs.

I have my doubts, though, that his supporters will see any of this anytime soon. I doubt, frankly, that the chaos they've willingly helped set in motion, which will immiserate them along with their "enemies," will open their eyes.

"Yes. It’s horrible. Everything is horrible. But this Gaetz nomination (along with the other two) may finally convince people that Trump really is the menace to America that Democrats and never-Trumpers have been warning he was. There may be no better person than Gaetz to convince the Republicans who hate him how poor Trump’s judgment is."
