On a related fantasy: Matt Gaetz resigned his House seat. I would love to see the Senate reject his AG nomination – and America being rid of him for the foreseeable future. A better fit for Matt and his skill set might be ambassador to Tuvalu, Palau or North Macedonia.

“I can’t understand any situation under which we would deny ourselves access to full and complete information [in the House Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz]. Part of this is not only to determine fitness for the nominee, it’s also to protect the president. Because there may be information that the investigation would find forthcoming that would ultimately be an embarrassment to the president. So this is for all of the above reasons, we need to get access to everything.”
I mentioned this in yesterday's thread but strangely enough, there's one issue not mentioned which Gaetz has divided the GOP on: Marijuana.
Gaetz has argued for a pro-cannabis agenda since he originally got elected to the House back in 2016. If he's pissing off Republicans across the board in Congress, this issue happens to be one of them. Kevin McCarthy is certainly no exception.
But aside from this, Gaetz's agenda has been clear - Disruption.
exactly; his father was actually a formidable power in state politics; the son is an entitled frat boy clown with real power that he's got no clue as to how to wield
Oh yes. I read the story about Gaetz' history. Like Trump, he brags about money a lot. Apparently in high school he wouldn't stop doing this in front of classmates.

He's running for governor if he's rejected by the Senate (his father will fund him)
Right. If the 2024 election proved anything, it's that the most awful people in the world never go away.
these folks are indeed vampires hunting for another 'meal'
Staaaawwwppp! 🤣🤣🤣 If only the rest of us had their level of confidence. Imagine what we could do.

He is really the perfect person to be governor of Florida. I can't think of a better match.
not to me

It’s a non-issue. The GOP tried clutching their pearls to no avail bc weed is chill and fun and voters agree. The real issue is how much coke he does.
Agreed. Not praising Gaetz for doing this but he happens to have a better record on it than many Republicans in the House.
No he does not; he's into weed for his personal fortune only(oh, and probably his personal usage)
According to this article, Gaetz has a history in being pro-marijuana reform with his agenda. Such advocates and the industry see an ally in Gaetz.
Personally benefitting or not, his record is his record.

he's in it for his money and his personal stash
I sense that. Gaetz' ego really overrules everything that he is supposed to do in the House.
