True, but many Republican senators dislike the choices. North Dakota Sen. Kevin Cramer said, "It will take a lot of political capital to get him confirmed" (AP). Even Sen. Lindsey Graham said that "he’ll have to answer some tough questions in the hearing, and we’ll see how he does" (AP).
Sen. Murkowski said, "I do not see him as a serious candidate" (AP). Sen. Tillis of NC said, "There’s obviously been a lot of disagreements between members of the Senate and Mr. Gaetz" (AP).
I just listened to a podcast explaining what will happen. All Trump has to do is wait until the Senate breaks for recess. At that time he can install anyone we wants without the Senate. That's how it will happen.
toss in Tulsi...............It is easy to keep intel out of trumps hands to hand over to putin it is another kettle of fish if Tulsi becomes head Nat Sec
My biggest concern is the senate allowing recess appointments. Then they can let trump have whatever he wants, while they can say the didn’t vote for it. Then we get every one of these disastrous picks and more…
Gaetz has been appointed to the top law enforcement post in the land and he was under investigation at least twice for sex crimes. Hell yeah we should all see the report!
The DOJ investigated him once and didn't file charges, so that investigation should not be released, but the results of the house investigation should be.
I disagree.
If you were investigated by the cops, and they found no evidence of a crime, that investigation should be sealed.
It shouldn't be able to be used to prejudice an employer one way or another.
We’re talking about the position of US Attorney General. If you were under investigation for committing crimes, then that info needs to see the light of day. It’s wholly relevant.
I might agree, as long as it is made clear that you were cleared, that there were no charges filed by anyone.
But I dont believe that a closed investigation should be used as a weapon against anyone, especially if there were no charges filed of any kind.
Its prejudicial and wrong, IMHO
The reason no charges were filed is that the pimp is an untrustworthy piece of shit and a walking talking criminal enterprise and the sex-trafficked girl also an unreliable witness.
That may be, I'm not familiar enough with the case to know.
I'm just saying that if you are investigated and there are no charges filed, then the investigation should be sealed and the public doesn't have a need to know.
Because they know the correct thing to say out loud but stay alert.
They want to see the report in order to get ahead of it & be able to diffuse & normalize the crimes.
We'll definitely get political theater. They need the case against him so that they can tear it into tiny pieces with misinformation and propaganda. Meanwhile, they will slide him right in. The pervert will pop the cherry as the first known pedophile to run the DOJ.
83% of voters who broke for Trump in the final days think Harris and the Democrats support using taxpayer dollars to pay for transgender surgeries for undocumented immigrants in prison.
77% believe Democrats support allow minors to transition genders without informing parents.
Then we can continue on wanting but we will not be able to see it . This is the new regime - people in power can do whatever they want and there is nothing we can do about this .
And probably (hopefully) some pictures too because curious they are. On the subject matter I wouldn't think they were uninformed, because if they were I'd question their competence in the first place.
I just called Tillis’ office to thank him and beg him to put country over party and suggested voting secret ballot for all of the cabinet meetings like they did to choose their leader of the Senate.
I am sure they are speaking for Thune as well without Thune having to say anything (leaving door open to not pissing trump off too soon) ....They and Thune used to be Mcconells team in the senate
Thom Tillis has been stepping up a little bit lately. I think that he realizes that Governor Roy Cooper NC might just run against him. NC went blue except for Presidential race.
Tillis is one of my senators-he is about as sane as it gets in the GOP. Don’t agree with many of his takes, but the few remaining people like him might help create some guard rails. At least by calling for the report’s release he can make all the suck ups go on record for confirming a pedo.
So do The People. He was investigated on our dime. Don’t we deserve the results we paid for with our hard earned tax dollars? We also deserve to know the character of the people Trump is surrounding himself by and giving power to. Especially the power of the DOJ over all of US.
House Dems need to stop wringing hands about Matt Gaetz' nomination and take action. We need a House Dem with the spine to release the Ethics committee's findings. If the roles were reversed, Republicans wouldn’t hesitate to do it. These are not normal times & the guardrails are gone. Fight back!
But they still support a man who is credibly accused of violently raping a thirteen year old child in Jeffrey Epstein's home. A man who stole and likely sold top secret government documents.

Where is Thule in all this?
NCGOP and their voters will always support the sex trafficking side of things
There is no decency, integrity or honor in the GOP. NONE.

They will bend the knee to their king
Speaker Mike Johnson (has a deal with his son & himself to call each other out if they watch porn)
Both Mike and Jim have said to the Ethics’s Committee to not release the investigation report.
Big Whoop! (unless they truly despise that clown)
