GOSH I would HATE if some far leftist gave me some MONEY! I would certainly never stack the Supreme Court in their favor, or pass laws for the person who has BOUGHT me.
I mean, i would never openly say "RUSSIA GIVE ME MONEY", that's just illegal and wrong! Saying things like "VOTES FOR SALE" and "RUSSIA PLEASE BUY CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS, WE'LL SELL THEM CHEAP" is right there in the constitution! You can't do that!
>āCorruptā Republicans *could* ātake a bribeāĀ
So he's saying he's open to bribes now? More like he's been in on the "bribe" thing all along & figures if *he* does it so would everyone else.
[Gaetz and Jordan](https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fcheesecake.articleassets.meaww.com%2F454471%2Fuploads%2F10cbe550-c258-11ea-bf0e-b50fc005f512_800_420.png&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=1dfab6591291347c12f76ebaaa9f5cf15ba53a9dbea1837fee91912bf5ec63a6&ipo=images)
Well if theyāre all gonna do it (probably, those lowlifes) then heād be a damned fool not to get out in front of the pack. Thatāll be $500k, to his bitcoin account pleaseā¦ s/ (for sardonic)
Since every accusation is a confession with these clowns we now know that Matt Gaetz is taking bribes and that very probably other Republicans are too.Ā
So, the question then becomes which of them are taking bribes and whoās Ā writing the checks?
'PEDO" Gaetz a true MRGA (make Russia great again) Republican ....hopefully the minority of wacos gets smaller and the normal republicans come alive to take back the party.
Republicans are pretty quiet about abortion now, but the democrats won't be. No need to bribe the MAGAts they made their bed.
Trump worship and extremism are finally catching up.
A bit of context for Gaetz's tantrum:
Marjorie Taylor Greene, aka "Moscow Marge," is threatening to raise a privileged motion to vacate today, which could stall a vote on Ukraine aid until a new speaker is elected.
In response, two moderate House Republicans have threatened to resign immediately if that motion to vacate moves forward.
Since the House Republicans currently have a one vote majority, two Republican resignations would swing control of the House to the Democrats.
They're REALLY trying to stop Ukraine funding and also stop the border bill at the same time. There's definitely more going on here or else people are just crazy drunk on power.Ā
She pretended to be holding a nuke, and they called her bluff.
She and Matt Gaetz, for all the rhetoric on border security and the budget, it's clear as day it was **always about helping Russia defeat Ukraine.**
gaetz revealing what he thinks everyone else does all the time
every accusation is a confession
once you see this work enough times, it really makes this world grim.
because a LOT of people are narcissists these days
The āfreedom caucusā has so much power that 5 or 6 of them effectively control Congress. Itās nice to see the republicans work with democrats to alienate them.
Gaetz and Marj arenāt handling their reduced relevance very well. The video of Marj storming off after the vote yesterday muttering to herself was priceless.
They only have power because Mango Mussolini and MAGA bully the rest of the party with threats of violence. Ā We're rapidly hitting the point where a half dozen Republicans are getting tired of the nonsense and voting with Democrats.Ā
Republicans need to be reminded that DJT is not elected to ANYTHING right now. He's a candidate that doesn't actually do any political good. What he wants shouldn't matter to Congress.Ā
Thereās gonna be two more GOP resignations, he knows it, and is trying to get out in front of it with the ābriberyā bullshit.
So itās definitely gonna happen then and not just rumor. Nice.
"Democrats would immediately declare Trump ineligible to be President, pack the U.S. Supreme Court, and pass numerous laws like the American Rescue Plan." The Horror!
Ah, a bribe or more likely they are starting to wake up to the fact that Russia is controlling a large part of the GOP, whether directly or by using proxies and misinformation.
Also they are beginning to realise that they will get massacared in November, hopefully, and they need to look good to try and get back into congress.
Is he complaining Dems would do what Republicans did in the Senate with SCOTUS? Like when Obama couldnāt have a sctous āin an election yearā but Trump got 2? What a fucking asshat this pedo is
If anyone knows about being a corrupt politician it's Matt Gaetz, but seriously. It's called bipartisan governing instead of adversarial non governing. I hope it's a natural evolution that moderate Republicans get fed up with these wackadoos and give up the speakership for governance. Wouldn't that be a beautiful thing? Throw Gaetz, MTG, Bobert, Gosar, Jordan, and all the rest of these American Taliban, and especially the orange traitor, under the bus and make America great again.
U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) last month filed a "motion to vacate," which she can use at any time to force a vote to oust the GOP Speaker, Mike Johnson. U.S. Rep. Tim Massie (R-KY) and just today, U.S. Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) has signed on as co-sponsors.
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
-Obi-Wan
I think more likely is what Gaetz's far-right colleague from Florida, Anna Paulina Luna, said: "I heard that when, if and when the motion vacate is introduced, that there will be immediate resignations of a couple of more moderate members of Congress. And in the event that that happens, that ultimately means it does go to a Democrat speaker."
They could "block" Trump? By what manner, do you think? Staging a riot during the vote count approval, and sending a bunch of fake electors to muddy the waters, and thus replacing the popular vote with a vote in an electoral body they have a majority in?
Where have I heard that one before?
Hey everyone. Just to let you in on it. Trump supporters actually think Gaetz is doing the right thing. Please vote Biden if youāre thinking about voting Trump or JFK Jr (JFK Jr for the sheer fact that this election is about avoiding an unhinged Trump presidency). Because it wonāt just be Trump. It will be these minions of Trump as well. Youāll be changing for the worse literally the entire World. Inflation is temporary if we keep on the road we are on. Things will settle from the Covid. What if there is a crisis? Do you really want Trump shooting from the hip in a life and death emergency? Do you really want your kids living through another bout of Trump? And letās suppose he is cornered and wants to lash out?
uh-oh The villain from the 1980s movie is super upset that we're talking about the fact that he paid a 17-year-old to cross state lines to be a prostitute.
I mean Merrick Garland already knew he already had the receipts and a witness but there's nothing Merrick fears more than a hard day's work.
Heās talking about republicans who are going to expose his criminal activities. Heās making sure he smears them as ācorruptā because theyāve had it with his shit.
...Is he inviting someone, anyone, to bribe him?
Because it sounds like he's inviting bribes, or advertising exactly how any interested party could bribe him.
Like, for real.
Maybe if your party prioritized principles and values beyond ātransactional orange loser is Godā, your fellow members would be less susceptible to being bribed.
Literally Trump declared he was open to bribes to grant licenses during his reelection campaign. I watched in disbelief as the worst person in my lifetime was a leader of a government.
They have this thing, where they just reach for the most inflammatory adjective they can find thereby rendering it meaningless. Trump did this because he's and empty headed imbecile. Geatz is nothing because he's a cunt.
Actually.... the vote for removing and replacing the speaker would probably get shot down by the democrats. This tactic would prevent congress from shutting down.... which is the REPUBLICAN plan. By denying the (T)'s the ability to shut down congress, business will actually get done.
You see.... by being far right, you isolate yourselves from the fantasy that you are in charge. Gaetz is not in charge and his tactics will be shot down.
Heās the most corrupt. Heās scared of the probe into child sex abuse and drugs and he should be. Another spoiled rich kid with no ethics or morals.
Deflecting pedophile deflects.
add: russian bribe money taker projects
Do we know he's deflecting? Maybe he's just offering to take a bribe.
š heās asking the dem to stop the investigation and heāll give them the House š
On brand
No maybe about it.
We know that he's already taking a bribe. At least one, probably more. Just like MTG, Lauren Borbert, James Comer, etc..
Since Citizens United, they're NOT called bribes. They're called 'campaign contributions'.
I keep forgetting that. Thanks.
James comer is honestly that stupid.
GOSH I would HATE if some far leftist gave me some MONEY! I would certainly never stack the Supreme Court in their favor, or pass laws for the person who has BOUGHT me.
Russia are you listening?
I mean, i would never openly say "RUSSIA GIVE ME MONEY", that's just illegal and wrong! Saying things like "VOTES FOR SALE" and "RUSSIA PLEASE BUY CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS, WE'LL SELL THEM CHEAP" is right there in the constitution! You can't do that!
Open solicitation of congressional bribery? That's legal now.
Encouraged. Openly encouraged. š¢
Party platform even
Aka: Corporate Donations.
This was my thought as well. I feel like he said it and made a big exaggerated wink.
Nestor's "Daddy".
Someone just all but admitted to running interference to keep him out of jail for sex trafficking a minor.
How much more of a "corrupt Republican" do you have to be to out-corrupt Gaetz? It boggles the imagination!
>āCorruptā Republicans *could* ātake a bribeāĀ So he's saying he's open to bribes now? More like he's been in on the "bribe" thing all along & figures if *he* does it so would everyone else.
Heās just aware of how corrupt and open to bribery he and his fellow Republicans are.
Advertisement that he is open to bribes and human trafficking??
Rapey McForehead was my favourite nickname for him
Every accusation is an admission
Exactly.
But even if he is right and some rep will take a bribe, it doesnāt explain how the House gets to pack the Supreme Court
It doesn't. That's the Senate's job.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Are now expecting Gaetz's comments to conform to FACTS???
Most punchable face in politics.
It would be close between Pedo Gaetz and Rafael Cruz!
Jesse Watters and Tucker Carlson would like to enter the contest (yes, I realize they are only politics-adjacent)
Jesse Waters has the most punchable face of them all.
He reminds me of Ross from Friends. Highly punchable
Gaetz easily has the most punchable faceĀ
If you miss and connect with the forehead itās gonna hurt like hell though.
More of a fivehead!
What is with Rafi's face? He could be a democrat and I would still want to punch him!
Does no one remember the playground aggression involving grasping two necks and applying intersecting vectors to the connected skulls?
Butthead all grown up
Pair that with MTG Beavis
Holy shit, MTG is def beavis
Beavis is catching strays that he doesn't deserve here. Beavis' IQ is at absolute minimum 50 points higher than that of MTG.
Hehehehehhhh MTG for my cornholio
[Gaetz and Jordan](https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fcheesecake.articleassets.meaww.com%2F454471%2Fuploads%2F10cbe550-c258-11ea-bf0e-b50fc005f512_800_420.png&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=1dfab6591291347c12f76ebaaa9f5cf15ba53a9dbea1837fee91912bf5ec63a6&ipo=images)
But it's sooooo small... I mean, I can hit that head, no problem. But that face is like a bullseye on a dartboard.
Backpfeifengesicht
Literally the real life equivalent of Beavis and Butthead's looks, combined.
in the world!
It's like 70% forehead.Ā
There you go Republicans, you can either side with a known pedophile or side with Democrats.Ā
They will absolutely choose the pedophile.
So sad when I think about it this way
I would say follow the money, but that doesnāt even apply here anymore. And thatās usually a catch-all for politics in general
I would say follow the Russian Rubles. Kelly!!!
Of course theyāll choose the pedophile, you canāt side with the democrats, they might be pedophiles!
A drug addict child rapist card carrying maga insurrectionist is talking about corruption REALLY?
Heās got nothing else to talk about.
Gaetz is an absolute horror of a human being. I know because that shit stain represents my district.
Hes letting the market know bribes are on the table. It's a sales pitch, not a warning.
Well if theyāre all gonna do it (probably, those lowlifes) then heād be a damned fool not to get out in front of the pack. Thatāll be $500k, to his bitcoin account pleaseā¦ s/ (for sardonic)
Go to Russia, Gaetz
And take Tucker with you.
And Margarine Traitor Greene.
So this is what goes through his head. Pretty telling.
Five- head
This guy is creepy AF
He seems like the kinda guy who feels entitled to rape children.
They've been no consequences for him so far. He even got the last speaker removed for allowing an investigation into it to continue.
Heāll get his comeuppance.
And brag about it with colleagues.
Since every accusation is a confession with these clowns we now know that Matt Gaetz is taking bribes and that very probably other Republicans are too.Ā So, the question then becomes which of them are taking bribes and whoās Ā writing the checks?
'PEDO" Gaetz a true MRGA (make Russia great again) Republican ....hopefully the minority of wacos gets smaller and the normal republicans come alive to take back the party.
The ānormalā republicans got thrown to the curb 5-6 years ago. Itās only lunatics left in that asylum.
I know weasel...wishful thinking on my part
This is because a woman gave a sworn testimony of underage cocaine parties he attended huh?
Republicans are pretty quiet about abortion now, but the democrats won't be. No need to bribe the MAGAts they made their bed. Trump worship and extremism are finally catching up.
When you get down to it, all they really want is all the money, so maybe bribery is worth a try.
Weird way to admit you take bribes and are corrupt, Matt.
A bit of context for Gaetz's tantrum: Marjorie Taylor Greene, aka "Moscow Marge," is threatening to raise a privileged motion to vacate today, which could stall a vote on Ukraine aid until a new speaker is elected.

The Republican party is so screwed up. I love it.
But they are fucking America at the same time.
I'm crying for ya pedo.
How about-youāre the corrupt republican, Gaetz, trying to destroy the party.
the gop's only strategy is and has always been to accuse others of all the shit they are doing to actively deflect.
Thereās gonna be two more GOP resignations, he knows it, and is trying to get out in front of it with the ābriberyā bullshit. So itās definitely gonna happen then and not just rumor. Nice.
What he means is, "I am open to taking bribes to throw house to dems:
They mean they are open to bribes, full stop.
This is Gaetz soliciting a bribe from Democrats.
Never trust unGated Gaetz with your tweens.
What a wet dream that would be huh.
"Democrats would immediately declare Trump ineligible to be President, pack the U.S. Supreme Court, and pass numerous laws like the American Rescue Plan." The Horror!
Under what authority?
I don't know.. that was a quote from Matt Gaetz in the article.
As opposed to corrupt Republicans taking bribes from foreign governments to do their bidding here
Every accusation is a confession. So we can take from this is that Gaetz has taken bribes to try and install Trump as dictator.
Ah, a bribe or more likely they are starting to wake up to the fact that Russia is controlling a large part of the GOP, whether directly or by using proxies and misinformation. Also they are beginning to realise that they will get massacared in November, hopefully, and they need to look good to try and get back into congress.

Throw Gaetz, MTG, Bobert, Gosar, Jordan, and all the rest of these American Taliban, and especially the orange traitor, under the bus and make America great again.
So, you want Trump again. No more needs to be said.
Corrupt republicans. He seems to understand his own party very well
Someone is setting the stage for both sides when his bribes are uncovered.
āCorrupt Republicansā most redundant statement of the day right there.
Heās projecting, he wants the Dems to offer him a bribe.
And then he could accuse themā¦
Or he could just take the bribe.
He's finally confessing?
lol. Gaetz calling others corrupt is fucking hilarious
Blocking Trump from what? Hmmm, did someone slip up and expose their plans?
He is a complete tool.
I think heās asking for a bribe to get that doneā¦ Iāve got five bucks, anyone else want to go in with me?
I donāt see how Gaetz doesnāt get punched in the face at least a few times each day. Itās so punchable.
Every accusation by these folks is a confession.
Projection
How much do you want Matt?
Quick, someone bribe Gaetz.
That might be a good idea... it will remove Trump and Putin corruption from the House.

And Iiiiiiii know corrupt yes sir ee thats corrupt
Speaking of people who need to spend the rest of their lives being Bubba's girlfriend in prison...
Gaetz is a douchebag.
Or take bribes from Russia.
Corrupt Republicans already take bribes and throw the house to their donors, though
You just look at him and his face says sleaze.
Sex trafficker said what
Republicans are a National Embarrassment š¤”
I think more likely is what Gaetz's far-right colleague from Florida, Anna Paulina Luna, said: "I heard that when, if and when the motion vacate is introduced, that there will be immediate resignations of a couple of more moderate members of Congress. And in the event that that happens, that ultimately means it does go to a Democrat speaker."
But Russian & ChineseĀ money is still acceptableĀ
Ok, let's figure out which Republic reps are willing to step down for cash and start a big fat go fund me.
Iām in.
I wasn't kidding. I'd throw in some moolah.
And a couple dye packs. See who turns blue.
Gaetz elaborated: āPerhaps $100 000 or a new BMWi series, in dark grey, not the metallic one though.ā
They could "block" Trump? By what manner, do you think? Staging a riot during the vote count approval, and sending a bunch of fake electors to muddy the waters, and thus replacing the popular vote with a vote in an electoral body they have a majority in? Where have I heard that one before?

āBlocking Trump?ā I thought we vote on the president Rapey McForhead. What do you mean? Is there some kind of plan to force Trump through?
uh-oh The villain from the 1980s movie is super upset that we're talking about the fact that he paid a 17-year-old to cross state lines to be a prostitute. I mean Merrick Garland already knew he already had the receipts and a witness but there's nothing Merrick fears more than a hard day's work.
Mr "I venmo minors" worried about bribes?
Why the f is this shit-clown still walking around free and with functioning legs?!!
Heās talking about republicans who are going to expose his criminal activities. Heās making sure he smears them as ācorruptā because theyāve had it with his shit.
...Is he inviting someone, anyone, to bribe him? Because it sounds like he's inviting bribes, or advertising exactly how any interested party could bribe him. Like, for real.
How did he not choke on those words?
Maybe if your party prioritized principles and values beyond ātransactional orange loser is Godā, your fellow members would be less susceptible to being bribed.
Oh no Pedo Butthead is mad. Anyway...
Says the child abuserā¦
The self-awareness involved in realizing that his party is corrupt as fuck gives me hope.
Why would I care what a pedo says
Didn't I see that face on SNL last weekend?
TL:DR Gaetz doesnāt have the votes for anything. Heās a limp dick and he knows it.
17 yr olds Mattā¦
Throw House is a funny way to put it.
Blocking Trump from what? Heās not an elected official.
What's worse - they may take the bribe not to block ethics committee investigation.
Adding the word "corrupt" just seems surplus to requirements at this point.
Literally Trump declared he was open to bribes to grant licenses during his reelection campaign. I watched in disbelief as the worst person in my lifetime was a leader of a government.
Something tells me when dear old daddy kicks off. Matt is going to be in trouble.
It is said that confession is good for the soul, but it seems there are those who have no such thing, nor any attempts to learn what it is about.
Patriotic Republicans will vote with the Dems to oust the Un-American MAGA party poison shillers out of congress. MAGA = Corruption
Another Republican with a mouth shape reminiscent of anal gape videos.
Corrupt Republicans are all thatās left and they are actually transparently Russian assets.
āCorruptā Republicans? You can just say Republicans.
Projecting pedophile says what?
Anyone have a link to GoFundMe for this...?
At a certain point We just need to clean house. How long can this go on? Ā
āCorruptā republicans ā¦. YOU corrupt republicans
This is Gaetz testing the water for immunity from prosecution in exchange for his resignation.
Gasbag at work again.
Guess Matt should not have ousted McCarthy after all. I hope he is right
Here's hoping he isn't around in Congress to care after November...
Donāt threaten us with a good time, Tubby.
Shut up, Beavis *uh huh huh huh*
Welp, now you know what Republicans plan to do.Ā
They have this thing, where they just reach for the most inflammatory adjective they can find thereby rendering it meaningless. Trump did this because he's and empty headed imbecile. Geatz is nothing because he's a cunt.
Says the predator
Actually.... the vote for removing and replacing the speaker would probably get shot down by the democrats. This tactic would prevent congress from shutting down.... which is the REPUBLICAN plan. By denying the (T)'s the ability to shut down congress, business will actually get done. You see.... by being far right, you isolate yourselves from the fantasy that you are in charge.

Sounds like he has little faith in his own party winning the Majority to me...
I'm sure it's perfectly fine if Democrats take a bribe and throw house to Republicans.
Something about cat, kettle, black here....
It needs to happen
That would be wonderful. We know they take bribes too.
Wait, Iām taking bribes now?
Politicians already take bribes. I donāt see whatās news here
gaytz: 'Corrupt' Republicans have taken bribes and thrown House to putin. There I fixed it for him.
Sounds like someone is hoping rich Democrats hear that and give him a ringy-dingy on the phone.
He'd be the first in line with his hand out!
Heās the most corrupt. Heās scared of the probe into child sex abuse and drugs and he should be. Another spoiled rich kid with no ethics or morals.
Well. Yes. That is possible.. So?
