    So what you're saying is he should be arrested and then at that point we can talk about if you should be pardoned or not. Am I correct?

    Why is it so hard for you to say what he did was wrong? The slush fun and what he did are not binary issues. They're both bad

    The odd thing is Rick normally pretends to be outraged by groomers.

    He did not get convicted of a crime. I want you to remember that logic next time you reference Joe Biden and the Biden "Crime Family"

    At this point Rick should feel that Joe Biden's work as VP is clean since he was never convicted of a crime

    evidence consisted primarily of data from paypal, etc and notes in payments corroborated by participants. many hesitant or refusing to testify

    US House panel finds Matt Gaetz paid for sex and drugs, obstructed Congress

    The report found that Gaetz paid $90,000 to 12 women, a substantial portion of which the panel found was likely for either sexual activity or drug use. It also determined there was "substantial evidence" Gaetz had sex with a 17-year-old girl while serving in the House.
    ..................................
    However, someone identified as "Victim A" told the panel of twice having sex with Gaetz at a party in 2017 while she was underage, receiving a $400 cash payment that she understood to be for sex.

    At the time, the victim had just completed her junior year of high school. She testified that she did not inform Gaetz that she was under 18 at the time, nor did he ask her age. The committee did not receive any evidence indicating that Gaetz was aware that she was a minor when he had sex with her.

    The report concluded that the encounter likely violated Florida state law on statutory rape because Gaetz was 35 years old at the time. Gaetz denied in a written submission to the panel that he had sex with anyone under the age of 18, but did not address the specific allegations related to "Victim A," according to the report.

    Well once he asked for a freebie.

    Because he was in a pinch, I guess.

    “Customer appreciation.”

    No pay!

    Although they also threw some “molly” into the mix.

    Also, “customer.”

    And, he literally looks like a guy trolling the parking lot after the prom.

    So conflicting!

    Why do I get the feeling you would be singing a different tune if we were talking about Hunter Biden committing these acts instead?

    LOL Rick. Gullible much? Let me see, take the word of a bipartisan Congressional committee or the not even under oath word of the accused? Tough choice.

    The DOJ has not commented on the case. In fact, if you read the report, you would know that they didn't even participate in this investigation as a matter of department policy.

    Also, if you had read the report, you would know that the most serious accusations are of state crimes, like statutory rape, not federal charges. In fact, the report specifically stated that they couldn't provide sufficient evidence of sex trafficking, which would require him bringing the 17 year old across state lines for sex. Instead, the report states that they have "substantial" evidence of him having sex with a 17 year old Florida resident in Florida. That is statutory rape, given his age at the time, but that isn't a federal issue. It is a state issue.

    Gaetz did no insider trading

    Gaetz tool no money from lobbyists

    Gaetz took no money from PACs

    Gaetz was the one exposing the corruption in Congress. He named names.

    So they turned on him. Where are the reports on the true corrupt members of Congress? Buried.

    The charges against Gaetz are preposterous. Let them be presented in a forum where he can call and cross-examine witnesses. Until then I give little to no credibility to these BS charges
