I bet I could count the number of ethical/moral politicians on one or two hands and I don't think that's an exaggeration. Gaetz seems to be one of the very, very few good ones.
Really enjoyed this piece, and a little surprised too. I have been skeptical of Gaetz. But you’re right. He may not be perfect, but it’s hard to know who really knows what he’s up to. So far he’s been one of the few to really raise some hell about what is happening in this country. And I think a lot of people support that battle.
Bc of what Rep Gaetz said in the House Floor today (boo all you want), I will send my hard-earned money to support him and those like him. Rep Matt effing Gaetz!!!!
Again, that used to be the way it was....they are elected to bring the money we send to the FEDS back to be used in our own states, so our state politicians can fritter it away.
Time for a major change. I think Taxes need to go back to the state in the exact amount they were collected. Puts Congress back into the job they were paid for ..PROTECTING OUR RIGHTS, not bringing home the bacon fat.
I have no idea what we can do for the states to keep them from lining their own pockets....but states are easier to have an electronic referendum on every proposed law....
The problem is they are lawmakers. And we need to stop them from making more laws.
Yep, chaos it is and I love it. Your "around 97% of Democrats and 85% of Republicans are slavishly devoted to the Uniparty" is absolutely true and needs to change.
The key is to foresee the response. In 2020/21 they actively pushed Trump out... Is Lawfare the primary attack mechanism?
Among the R's, Sometimes Sen. Ron Johnson is good. Sometimes Rand Paul is good. Even the ones who seem good are often bad on some issues. Hard to find good D's
And has been railing against the WEF by name, exposing the agenda. Tom Cotton, Elise Stefanik, Nikki Haley,Ivanka Trump, Scott Gottlieb, Bloomberg,Bill Gates, Zuck,Bancel, Bourla, Kadlec, Faustus,Woodward, Volker,Jerome Adams, Birx, McMaster, Crenshaw, Gavin Newsom are all WEF He had no problem with them. Loves Schwab. He didn’t go batshit crazy on Elon until he came out AGAINST the WEF! Has yet to utter a peep about the Great Reset.
Chaos may not be pretty. But neither are Democrats.
The main thing I hope for is that the Uniparty sees some resolve to break their grip on the national political mood. And while I don't know what will happen regarding the actions that are taken with future bills from the House, I think this was the start of something. Not necessarily something big. Just something.
I'm not surprised by any of these. Victoria Nuland was on the path to be Hillary Clinton's Secretary of State, except Donald Trump put the kibosh on that. Instead, the woman who engineered the Maidan Square coup became a simple Undersecretary of State within the Biden regime. But the world would have been better off if she would have been turned over to Putin for her actions.
So sad the poor uniparty/media are screaming “chaos”. Welcome to our world where chaos is everywhere in America from the border to the schools and our pocket books.
Gaetz is no hero. All he did today was to enable a united Democrat caucus to depose a Republican Speaker. If you think that’s a defeat for the UniParty you are sadly mistaken.
Yeah. He is a hero. The Democrats win anyway. The RInos always fold, even when they have leverage. The GOP is worse than useless for its voters. Toothless and crooked establishment republicans are no barrier to the Dems. This whole thing is unraveling. It’s going to collapse. At this point, we either do heroic moves like this or let the inevitable happen. You want more status quo?
You better off now than under Trump? You’re in the minority if that’s the case.
If when you ask "Better now than under Trump", what do you mean? Trump, "the businessman" who shut the country down in the first ever Executive Overthrow of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights! His choices of cabinet members were abysmal and didn't help at all! Pompeo and Barr are known CIA agents, Pence was half baked and half assed and the list goes on. He came in promising to "drain the swamp" but only succeeded in drowning not only himself but the entire country in it. There is a Universal Law which no one, including the President of the United States, can circumvent and it is "whatever you sow you will reap ten fold.." Sadly Mr Trump thought it didn't apply to him and when leading calls for jailing Hillary Clinton, lying about Barack Obama's birthplace and bad mouthing other powerful people he didnt realize how vulnerable he was himself. Politics is ALL ABOUT finding others to help and making friends and alliances. He is practically alone now because, though he has millions of devoted followers, he alienated even his own Party.
I do not expect anything meaningful to come from this at all. I guess I might give Gaetz and Co. a decent grade for shaking things up temporarily but if history is any indicator this will end up just pissing the general public off and enforcing the idea that the Rs are unable to get anything done. Most aren’t into the “inside baseball “ ideas that you articulate and the media will beat them relentlessly.
I’d like to believe people will say “enough” but I thought that in 2022. People couldn’t buy a car, toilet paper and other things. All incumbents were pretty much returned. The Rs should have gotten bigger majorities. Since then there have been 30 Special Elections throughout the country. The Ds have over performed in all of them winning most. Get outside these forums. Most people don’t pay attention to this stuff outside of what they get on their browsers, Facebook or even Fox News. Life doesn’t really suck that much for a lot of people as long as they get their NFL games or whatever the distraction of choice might be. I guess we’re going to see but for now I remain unconvinced.
Matt Freaking Gaetz. He is one of the few real ones. That’s why they tried to take him down last year with the fake human trafficking crap.
🎯🎯🎯
I’d like to see Mitch McConnell collapse down to the ground in front of TV camera because his dirty crimes finally crush him.
I bet I could count the number of ethical/moral politicians on one or two hands and I don't think that's an exaggeration. Gaetz seems to be one of the very, very few good ones.
You could cut off a few fingers and still have some not committed.

You go Gaetz !!! Thank you for doing your job. My children’s children will thank you as well. 🤩

Yep. I lost respect for MTG when she supported McCarthy for Speaker. Too bad. I had thought she was anti-RINO.
Again, that used to be the way it was....they are elected to bring the money we send to the FEDS back to be used in our own states, so our state politicians can fritter it away.

I'm Canadian, but do follow American politics.
Boo all you want, I really like Matt...
Thankful to Matt Gaetz❣️
It’s disgusting how many RINOs we have in the Republican Party.
If we didn’t have massive election fraud in states as well as presidential then we would have many more like Gaetz in office.
Most of the Uniparty are WEF puppets who only care about their own wealth & power & not about America or Americans.
God bless Matt Gaetz & let’s hope this is only the beginning of the purge of the DC swamp!
Yep, chaos it is and I love it. Your "around 97% of Democrats and 85% of Republicans are slavishly devoted to the Uniparty" is absolutely true and needs to change.

I’m very lukewarm on her. She Did Not vote against impeaching Trump -a ridiculous and vicious impeachment! So, there’s that!
Amen!

Thanks; I wasn't aware of all those details.
Finally someone in Washington DC with the cajones to put their money where their mouth is!!

Trump didn't shut anything down, that was the blue state governors and mayors.
Cry harder.
Yes, I agree with you. I am holding my breath. Scared.
I’m going to reserve judgment until I see some tangible results.
talk is CHEAP
Yes but certainly not in short supply.

Exactly! Well said Daniel.

Good point!
