2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

I have a feeling that Gaetz knew this was going to be the case long before the public did. It would explain his complete departure from politics to become a disinformation kiosk host for Mr. Trump.

Hey guys, I just want to get this out there.

I often pay women I date. And if the women are under 18, I only pay them, and absolutely have never dated them.

Thanks,

MGMT of your country.

Matt Gaetz is definitely not already preparing to declare it all lies from his new OANN show.
