Matt Gaetz nominated for AG

[yellowstone123]

And he just resigned from the house the day before the investigation into his questionable activity came out.

And I am reading the resignation applies to the current term and not the coming. So it may just be some scheme to avoid the committee report being released?

Yes, thanks for pointing out that his resignation from the House halts its ethics investigation which concludes with their report.

But in a way, it’s an end but also a beginning: that Judiciary Committee that will ask questions has many investigators who will go out and track down anyone who has information on Gaetz.

An investigator can read the House report early in the morning behind Lucky Lou’s Bar N Grill, write down names and addresses, read the FBI reports regarding his friend who was sent to prison, write down names and addresses, shred the reports, and then track those witnesses down and reinterview them. If they say they don’t want to talk, hand them a menu from Lucky Lou’s Bar and Grill and when they open it they are looking at a subpoena.

I would say that Gaetz appearing before the committee would be watched live on TV at almost equal to or better than the Watergate hearings, but then will it actually happen.

I read something yesterday that got me wondering if Trump wasn’t just pulling the troll-and-chief card so he could watch his “enemy” respond. Senator Johh Fetterman said this nomination was just Trump trolling.

So Trump looks at his political chess game, makes a move that sends MSNBC, CNN etc through the roof. Trump, Gaetz, Roger Stone and MAGA and company sit around at Mar-A-Largo sipping champagne, eating caviar watching what they now call the new Saturday Night Live. To them watching Joy Reid is comedy.

I posted a short video from Robert Wright on the center-right and center-left thread where he states Trump is a master at these types of political moves. He says don’t feed the troll and chief by overreacting. It’s what Trump wants. It makes wonder if there is a new type of game in town.

Personally, I hope the hearings occur so we can watch/read the legislative branch check and block a move by the executive branch, something that most people in the world just dreams about for their country.

I like your style.

But, no - I don’t think that I’ll go with you to Lucky Lou’s for lunch today.

There is. Partisan political prosecution of Trump and his supporters by the deep state is going to be put to a stop. Anyone at the DOJ determined to resist the Trump agenda in this manner should go ahead and resign before they get fired.

Or they’ll be subject to partisan political prosecution, perhaps?

Yep. We've got plenty of data and evidence to investigate these partisan political investigations. Either resign or be ready suffer what you've been dishing out. As Dr. Steuss said when Alvin Bragg convicted Trump of a hush money payment that occurred after he was elected president, all decisions to prosecute a crime or not are political. So that's how we're going to play the game with those that insist on playing it this way. Once people who weaponize the justice system to accomplish political objectives are cast out and neutralized, then we can talk about going back to a nonpartisan political justice system where people are not discriminated against based on political party. But the days of a two tiered justice system where Democrats bend the rules and Republicans are too good to hit back are over.

That data and evidence will be interesting to see. You’ll want start manufacturing it now, given how many folks are on ‘the list’.

In your opinion - based on your statement there - Trump committed crimes. You just prefer not to see him face any consequences.

Yours is an interesting standard.

What Bragg did was completely unethical and unequal application of the law. It was done out of purely political motives and it did backfire during this past election for Democrats. Bragg needs to be held accountable for this. Trump's revenge is this election. But he and congress need to make sure that what Bragg, Fanny Willis, Judge Engeron, and Jack Smith did never happens again in this country.

[Doctor Steuss]

[...] Jack Smith did never happens again in this country.

That you would even think of including Smith in this list makes me think you never read the initial indictment, or the revised one.

If even a fraction of the evidence presented is accurate, they had Trump dead-to-rights as an anti-American piece of treasonous trash. His lawyers know this, and he knows this, which is why they never tried to argue his innocence, but instead went the route of "He's immune from the illegal things he did that would have anyone else rotting in a federal prison."

I can always tell when someone didn't look at the indictments by whether they think Smith was just doing a political hatchet job, or if they try to compare what Trump did to Biden or Pence. Smith's indictment was absolutely damning.

OK, then. You and I agree that Trump broke the law.

[Doctor Steuss]

Remember folks, voting for Trump was about protecting children.

A-hem...
