May he fade away into obscurity forever. Amen.
Nah. He was my Congressman. I want him nailed to the wall with whatever they got. Statutory rape if he was dumb enough to fuck a 17-yo in Florida. Paying for minor sex across state lines? Probably even better.
I want the report fucking yesterday.
That would be awesome.
It's not going to happen though. I'd love to told i was wrong.
I'm just glad he resigned, this could easily have been another Kavanaugh situation where no investigation is launched, and Trump just says "He was proven innocent."
That alone means sadly more justice has already been done than what precedent says.
Right? I'm glad you specified in Florida, because what bothers me is that there are states where 17 is actually within the age of consent. Meaning this motherfucker was a dumbass.
Look I'm not saying I approve of 40 year olds doing it with people half their age, or that I approve of Republicans having sex with anybody for any reason ever...
But he was already engaging in sexual harrassment, sexual assault, and attempt to solicit prostitution (by offering to pay for it)
Hasn't he ever heard the phrase "Never do a misdemeanor in the middle of your felony?"
Sorry I'm autistic, it's the small details that stick out in my mind. Or... perhaps I should say the "minor" details.
I repeat, I'm not defending his actions or his crimes. I mean it'd still be wrong no matter what state he did this in, but... for fuck's sake at least be somewhat competent at being a sex pest.
Just to be back in 2 months.
He can be! I've followed this man closely.
After his buddy was sentenced, the buddy who was presumably going to squeal, Gaetz shut the fuck up. If you remember, he was on a tear. Always stirring shit up, always in the headlines. Then... silence.
After that died down, the Mouth from the South was in action again, just a tad more subdued. House report coming up? Sure got real quiet around here, again.
He resigned this Congress and was voted in for the next. Probably sweating balls trying to figure out his next play.
Oh gosh! Remember yesterday's headlines that a "hacker" had got the House report? And he instantly dropped the Attorney General bid? Huh. I won't state my opinion, because lemmy will, no matter what, think I'm defending him.
EDIT: Ah, fuck it, I need the downvotes. For those of y'all pissing and moaning about him fucking a 17-yo "child", does the name "Nestor" ring any bells? Might want to look into that.
I don't understand what the Nestor edit means? Its obvious he is obsessed with raping children. I don't think that the gender of the child matters to him. He seems to be an equal opportunity child rapist.
I really fucking hope not.
