This is deeply disturbing.

8intnosaint.bsky.social•103 days ago

Would this be considered then…a Web of….’Lays’??? Jes’ Sayin’.

westendirish.bsky.social•103 days ago

WTF is the FBI waiting for?

westendirish.bsky.social•103 days ago

Oh wait, Garland supervises and directs the administration and operation of the FBI. He’ll move on it post haste, this I have no doubt.

zzzeek.zzzeek.org•103 days ago

the NYT has the full team painstakingly making the case against Gaetz, as they should, all the while Gabbard, Hegseth, Oz and the rest have no resistance set up, as they're not as "crazy" as this pick. Gaetz will be confirmed anyway. The gang goes right in, with Gaetz being the only "fringe" one

So, rings of trafficking activity. There should be a term for that…

tcishere.bsky.social•103 days ago

Can we reveal one a day til Christmas? Like an advent calendar?

jayleec.bsky.social•103 days ago

Something tells me that Madison Cawthorne was telling the truth when he said Congressmen often had drug fueled orgies and then the GOP primaried him to get him out.

freedomshift.bsky.social•103 days ago

This the Pandora’s box Speaker Johnson referred to being opened if the ethics report is released. It needs to be leaked now.

perrid13.bsky.social•103 days ago

He got primaried because he was an ass, not because he spread rumors (true or not, whatever) about parties.

krampert.bsky.social•103 days ago

hm, interesting. but nothing against the illegal nanny for clinton's AG pick, right? gop is the definition of hypocrisy.

optimistgarden.bsky.social•103 days ago

If we have to resort to [checks notes...] *Analyst Notebook* to track the AG nom's "transactions," we've already lost.

obitala.bsky.social•103 days ago

Oh syphilis, wherefore art thou? Somewhere near the top of this web of deceit, I wonder?

gingerinaz.bsky.social•103 days ago

Meet your new AG, America.

🤢

willardknyc.bsky.social•103 days ago

the Gaetz economy stimulus package.

oc-golden-bear.bsky.social•103 days ago

Gaetz….that asshole should have been in prison years ago. Why we slow walk prosecutions of elected officials is so damn frustrating.

lindainomaha.bsky.social•103 days ago

Ha! Now do the rest of the apps.

spencerwindes.bsky.social•103 days ago

$200 to $500 per encounter seems like both way too little money to have sex with Matt Gaetz and a surprisingly large range of payment.

chillinonbluesky.bsky.social•103 days ago

Nothing is going to change me of this IMO. The country is conditioned to accept that nothing is bad enough to exclude these nut balls from keeping it gaining more power. It's sickening.

elonispsycho24.bsky.social•103 days ago

Trump isn't worried because he heard the report was only about "minor" things ...😏

hlaferrara1.bsky.social•103 days ago

Now we know why he needed the covid loan.

O% then forgiven

mrsaturdaynight.bsky.social•103 days ago

Joel Greenberg is the Chicago O’Hare of sex trafficking.

rogus69.bsky.social•103 days ago

The GOP stance…nothing to see here!

natrlredhd.bsky.social•103 days ago

Right there in black and white..

kimberleelynn.bsky.social•103 days ago

If it happens to a woman? "She asked for it." "She shouldn't have been wearing that." "It's he-said-she-said."

This needs to be stopped in its tracks NOW.

agigijones.bsky.social•103 days ago

One person sits in prison and the other one is possibly going to be AG for the country. Pretty f’d up times we live in.

catznjam.bsky.social•103 days ago

I hear he made some payments through Nestor, his Cuban "house boy", and morphed into his"adopted son" briefly, before disappearing off the radar entirely 🕵🏼‍♀️

wiese2154.bsky.social•103 days ago

Who is Client #3? or was one of the prostitutes a male?

rcopelander.bsky.social•103 days ago

I've never been this disappointed in hookers in my life...

wisfem1.bsky.social•103 days ago

WOW! What a tangled web indeed!

corporatesaltine.bsky.social•103 days ago

Jeezus he’s cooked.

gingerinaz.bsky.social•103 days ago

We've known about this stuff for YEARS. He is protected by the GOP.

bamsbakedbeans.bsky.social•103 days ago

The Dems are also very complicit in this. This is what bipartisanship gets ya

gingerinaz.bsky.social•103 days ago

Is that why they are willing to keep this ish quiet? Do you have more than just opinion?

Having been scorched by Sinema- well I just want proof.

bamsbakedbeans.bsky.social•102 days ago

There are Dems with direct access to the information. It is their choice not to put on blast the findings

It’s not like they don’t have countless news orgs who would kill for a copy of the report. Just have to lose a flash drive, or at the least just speak about the highlights: Silence is violence

gingerinaz.bsky.social•102 days ago

I hope someone has the courage to release it.

aguyinnj.bsky.social•103 days ago

Well thank congress for protecting America from a dangerou... no wait... they didn't.

oh72.bsky.social•103 days ago

It seems like Greenberg committed more kinds of crimes so easier to prosecute at the federal level. Still perplexing as to why nothing happened with Gaetz 😠
