Clearly an absolutely pedo
Payments for 'travel' appear to align with a September 2018 trip to the Bahamas, which was reportedly part of the Justice Department’s investigation into Gaetz.
Another “travel” transaction in early January 2019 appears to sync with Gaetz’s alleged arrangements for both women to fly to New York for sex and to accompany him to an appearance on Fox News, according to the women’s attorney Joel Leppard.
In 2021, Gaetz said during an interview that he believes “someone is trying to recategorize my generosity to ex-girlfriends as something more untoward.”
According to a lawyer representing the women, one of his clients testified that she witnessed Gaetz having sex with a girl when she was 17 years old. The attorney representing that woman, who is now in her 20s, has also said that she was a high school student at the time “and there were witnesses.”

Gonna start randomly sending venmo requests for money to members of Congress.
I am awesome, after all.
I've thought about this before. Just put like "dinner" in the notes to random campaigning politicians

Someone is trying to mischaracterize my GROUND AND POUND SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP with my beautiful TEENAGE EXes!!!!
The WOKE media mob is CANCELLING me for my UNDER-AGED SEX PARTIES!
For some reason the Disco Elysium quote, “Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin” mentions “child-murdering billionaires” and I always thinking it’s talking about pedophilic billionaires. Guess in my head they’re doing that too regardless?
I mean, they literally are, they just murder brown (Arab) children and SA brown (Hispanic) children.
I bet there will be no consequences for it either.
Fucking evil rich assholes rule this world
I remember like 13+ years ago, when my crypto reactionary friends would talk for hours about the occult and how liberal Hollywood was abusing kids. Now their heroes are doing it, and it's fine.
seeing that "+ xtra 4 u" bit gave me big "where my hug at?" vibes. he's so desperate and pathetic.
the Justice Department’s investigation into Gaetz
The Ethics Committee has limited powers but the DOJ has immense powers. Garland effectively killed any DOJ investigation into Gaetz. I really want to know how much evidence and what evidence Garland had. It's so weird to me that the DOJ never filed charges.
He wanted to save his successor the embarrassment of closing the investigation himself.
Is there anyone in USAmerican politics who isn't a pedophile?
i stand by my crank belief that all the Q shit was a psyop to distract from this real life Eyes Wide Shut web that stretches throughout the ruling class
This doesn't seem that crank to me. There is a stark difference between the ghouls that started the Q shit and the rubes that follow it.
i know. i just feel i have to label any conspiracy i belief in as such. even if it's legit
sometimes i think the only thing separating real life conspiracy vs the fake kind is the real stuff is typically perpetrated by bumbling, uncoordinated, often oppositional groups with cores of true believers/operators manipulating assorted rubes and power players.
vs the fake kind where it's just 10 guys, often of a specific ethnic group, meeting and coordinating in a dark room and doing perfectly executed plans
Yeah, I feel that, it makes me feel a bit unhinged just elaborating the way I did, lol.

100% agree, this isn't the movies where its some well thought our plan to oust some evil government official. This is the real world where normally its just some self centered idiot posting too much.
exactly
it does seem like modern social media/tech allows more careful coordination between the big power players. instead of the smoky room you get the billionaire group chat
but then you get a court ordered release of billionaire text logs and reality is so much more stupid
and the smokey right wing conspiracy group chat looks like a bunch of facebook chuds roleplaying
There was also a $420 payment in the screenshots but not called out in the article. Is the funny weed number not well-known across the pond?
Meanwhile I'm over here using the alien emoji whenever I pay my guy for weed... I should start telling him we are great friends, it might keep them off my trail.

I don't understand why people even put notes on bank transfers. The bank don't need to know. The cops don't need to know.
If you're ever investigated for anything, they are the only people that notes benefit.
I usually just write "For terroism" or "Donation to ISIS". I got a call from my banker once asking me to stop
no, but i did expand to other things like "for drugs" and "illegal money laundering", "tax fraud" and so on
bit idea: putting stuff in the negative like reason "NOT FOR TERRORISM" or "DEFINITELY NOT A BLACKMAIL PAYMENT"
it is useful if you ever have to go back and reconcile it you can jog your memory
But that marginal utility is outweighed by the downsides, especially when you're doing questionably legal things lol
Was McCarthy a creep?
Edit: Never mind, I just learned what you're talking about. 42 and 16, Jesus Christ. That's nearly as bad as my own father.
Matt Gaetz really thought he was playing 4 dimensional chess when he was like "Hey let's do that thing where we imply the Venmo transaction is illegal. It will be so funny!" Meanwhile the 17 year olds he's hanging out with were "no wtf dude" be normal.
