Rep. Matt Gaetz Sought Preemptive Trump Pardon on Sex Trafficking Probe


Donald Trump’s former bodyguard and later Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office John McEntee - told the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection that Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz told him he wanted a preemptive blanket pardon in the investigation into his friend Joel Greenberg’s hiring of underage sex workers.  McEntee added Gaetz further claimed that while "he did not do anything wrong, but they are trying to make his life hell, and you know if the president could give him a pardon, that would be great.”

Exactly, because nothing says you are innocent of a crime, like asking for a “preemptive blanket pardon!”  Gee, funny how Matt Gaetz seemed to feel secure in the fact Trump would be just fine with the idea of pardoning someone being investigated for “sex trafficking minors.”  Hell, I’m old enough to remember way back to before the year 2015, when things like allegations of sex trafficking minors would mean the end of one’s political career.  Of course, in today’s MAGA World, it’s a badge of honor - not to mention a really cool way to “Own the Libs.”


Anyway, so US Representative Matt Gaetz asked the president’s assistant for a “blanket pardon,” and honestly, I’d be perfectly fine with that.  That is, just as long as they only pardoned the “blanket,” and not Matt Gaetz.  Now, in Gaetz’s defense, not everyone believes what he did should be a crime.  Why Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert doesn’t believe there’s anything wrong with being a “sex offender.”  In fact, she likes them so much, that she even married one.  Hell, Catholic priests don’t even go that far.  Of course, priests aren’t allowed to marry, so there’s that.


Ah, well!  What’s the big deal?  I mean, it isn’t as if Matt Gaetz sits on the House Judiciary Committee, which has oversight over the US Department of Justice, which just happens to be investigating him for sex crimes.  Oh, wait…!  Can anyone say “conflict of interest?” That said, Matt Gaetz isn’t seriously worried about silly legal mumble jumble like “sex trafficking.”  Besides, even if the DOJ ever does finally get around to charging him with something, he’ll just get a Trump judge like Judge Aileen Cannon to simply appoint one of those nifty “Special Masters” to resolve the issue out of court.  Problem solved!

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
