It seems to be the best surefire way to avoid federal charges of any kind is to just take on a high position in the government. Problem solved.

beachjon.bsky.social•106 days ago

As we’ve known for years, Trump is not a serious person and every decision he makes is transactional and decided by what benefits HIM most.

🤯

karijohn.bsky.social•106 days ago

I know they want to "own the libs" but wtf...😡🤢

alinasopinion36.bsky.social•106 days ago

Corruption at it's finest!

stricksarcasm.bsky.social•106 days ago

just plain disgusting

sophiafhc.bsky.social•106 days ago

I honestly thought he would go for Cruz for AG.

hugheshart43.bsky.social•106 days ago

Nah. Remember Trump thinks Cruz's dad killed Kennedy. He will make him Marjorie Taylor Greene's assistant.

blickman.bsky.social•106 days ago

If I’m former Speaker McCarthy I would make plans to move out of the country that doesn’t have extradition treaty w the US. Gaetz in charge of the DOJ is going to move heaven & earth to cross off names on his & Trumps enemies list

radpackclub.bsky.social•106 days ago

I really didn't think Trump was going to be able to top putting his family in charge in 2016. Well, I honestly didn't see this coming, absolutely no one appointed has ANY experience for their new roles. This is all a game for Trump and Musk, at the cost of Americans

bigjonny.bsky.social•106 days ago

I am without words. This is off the charts crazy.

toddcorley.bsky.social•106 days ago

What happens when they aren't held accountable

mattgreenfield.bsky.social•106 days ago

The best people.

Even though I Never watched "the purge" & refuse to ever watch after understanding the "storyline", FEELS that WE are going to be Living it. 🙏

webrant.bsky.social•106 days ago

The purpose of fascism to protect corruption has never been more clear.

Along with the rule of privilege over law.

worldcitizen1994.bsky.social•106 days ago

He's a good whore for trump, so this is why. This nation cannot survive four years of this. I'm sorry, but it can't.

anafirefly.bsky.social•106 days ago

💯 it absolutely cannot survive this

worldcitizen1994.bsky.social•106 days ago

And that's exactly what these un-American traitors want. The saying "America will never be destroyed by forces outside of it -- it will only be destroyed by those from within" seems to be a painful reality now, barring a major political pushback or a miracle.

jeremiahmross.bsky.social•106 days ago

Thanks Merrick Garland

WTAF?!!

missnikki.bsky.social•106 days ago

Another fine choice by Velveeta Voldemort.

rotter7.bsky.social•106 days ago

I am actually disgusted by who we are as a country. Truly, the UGLY AMERICAN is back in full force.

k000.bsky.social•106 days ago

Ah, it's good to see that swamp drained so effectively!
😒

haligunner.bsky.social•106 days ago

tonywelly.bsky.social•106 days ago

Oh America we love you but your politicians are just weird.

amythyst1105.bsky.social•106 days ago

Makes me want to vomit…we are so F’d

uncarvedblock.bsky.social•106 days ago

What in the sphincter of clown shows is his government going to be? 🙄

imhiding.bsky.social•106 days ago

See what happens when you let rich white men get away with stuff?

Had any and all of these people had to actually face justice, imagine where the country would be now?

But, “imagine how bad that would have looked”

oddmanout.bsky.social•106 days ago

Holy SHIT!!!!

asskickerleague.bsky.social•106 days ago

Astonishing

He's a fucking criminal. This is appalling.

michaleschi.bsky.social•106 days ago

l0stsole.bsky.social•106 days ago

Most corrupt regime the US has ever assembled.

metrochimp.bsky.social•106 days ago

Matt Gaetz is what happens when a tube of hair gel gets its wish to become a real boy.

highly-dubious.bsky.social•106 days ago

That's Attorney General Butthead to you sir

thinkyparts.bsky.social•106 days ago

Knowing him… this was probably some revenge move against one guy who pissed him off.

chappgal.bsky.social•106 days ago

How is this real life???
Even his GOP colleagues hate him. It’s time to make all the evidence against him public.

paynemaker.bsky.social•106 days ago

Jesus christ the fox is on the hen house

drewharwell.com•106 days ago

"Several House Republican lawmakers and aides joked that Gaetz’s appointment to attorney general is one way for him to no longer be investigated by the House Ethics Committee regarding allegations of sexual misconduct" https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/11/13/trump-administration-transition/#link-CRPMCIHTAFFYBNQSX5G5ZDQRF4

erictjohnson.bsky.social•106 days ago

Why ask for a pardon if you're not guilty. The republican party is nothing but a criminal protection racket

rotter7.bsky.social•106 days ago

He is really poking at the libs. He is looking for the greatest anti Trump reaction.

lizzyvoice.bsky.social•106 days ago

Pedophiles and felons, oh my.🙄

bjgt.bsky.social•106 days ago

I don’t think that’s a joke

olivia10.bsky.social•106 days ago

That's not funny to me. Whatever Trump has on Gaetz will keep Gaetz in line, doing his duty to Trump---not to the Constitution.

craigdanz.bsky.social•106 days ago

It would be like beating a charge for public urination and as an award you are made chief of police.

hugheshart43.bsky.social•106 days ago

Is Marjorie Taylor Greene gonna run the department of education until Trump ends it? And Boebert .... well we know where she will be assigned. Under Donny.

hugheshart43.bsky.social•106 days ago

Next he will name a serial killer head of the FBI.

utbr2.bsky.social•106 days ago

This must be wrong.

aliceyoung.bsky.social•106 days ago

Ugh.

0ronson0.bsky.social•106 days ago

yeah

Diddy is definitely not going to jail now

hugheshart43.bsky.social•106 days ago

He will be head of the DOJ

thefabulousone.bsky.social•106 days ago

What in the fuck??? They love pedophiles.

authorthomascurran.bsky.social•106 days ago

This one fucking floored me. I called my realtor. Young women are totally fucked for the next 4 years. They'll get raped and pregnant. Way to go, MAGA.

technicallyowen.bsky.social•106 days ago

Well it's one way to increase the domestic supply of infants

authorthomascurran.bsky.social•106 days ago

but do we really need to?

technicallyowen.bsky.social•106 days ago

No but the Republicans have a breeding kink

The lesson here is to get ahead in this world you just have to do bad shit with impunity

acbabe.bsky.social•106 days ago

Guess Merrick Garland will see what it means to get shit done in DOJ.
In a very bad way. He let us down and now we'll pay for his ignorance.

dumbbeezie.bsky.social•106 days ago

What a joke. At least the fall of America will be stupid af

bshep.bsky.social•106 days ago

to be fair, Trump went from convicted felon and alleged national security documents thief to POTUS, so this is pretty on point for the country right now
