This is a real tweet from Gaetz. I'd love to see the decision making process Matty made before posting this;

He is insulting McCarthy. That isn't unusual. Gaetz supports the new wave of professional troll GOP to be the head of thr party.

Matt Gaetz ordered to testify about claim he had sex with underage girl, says report

‘The person doesn’t exist. I have not had a relationship with a 17-year-old, that is totally false,’ Florida Republican said in 2021

www.independent.co.uk

Matt Gaetz has been served with a subpoena to take part in a deposition in a civil lawsuit connected to allegations that he had sex with a 17-year-old girl, ABC News reports.

The subpoena is part of a lawsuit brought by a friend of the Florida Republican representative, targeting the young woman and others.


The subpoena was issued by lawyers representing the young woman who is now in her 20s. The allegations were at the centre of an investigation by the Department of Justice lasting years into the claims that Mr Gaetz had sex with her when she was a minor, according to ABC.

Shades of EJC.

On a superficial level (how else to discuss Matty?), he's always taken a creepy, laser-eyed photo. Lately, he's looking more and more like Jack Nicholson playing Dracula.

So his friend filed a lawsuit that results in him being forced to testify under oath? Maybe he should get some new friends.

Hasn't it been 3 years? Maybe in another 5 years they'll expand the investigation even further.

 

[Angry Floof]

Is he finally toast or is this just GOP threats to keep him in line in some way? He should have been toast years ago.

 

[ideologyhunter]

I'm surprised, because they need to protect that dinky majority they've got -- perhaps there really is some evidence that can't be suppressed, and they want to get on it ahead of the Dems. (Pure spec on my part, but hard for me to figure otherwise.)

Matt Gaetz Was at Sex and Drugs Party With High School Junior: Docs

Filings cite sworn statements from three witnesses.

www.thedailybeast.com

Rep. Matt Gaetz was at a 2017 party with a 17-year-old girl at the heart of an alleged sex trafficking scandal, according to legal documents filed Thursday.

The filings cite affidavits based on three witness testimonies—which remain sealed—which put the Florida congressman at the party, according to Notus. One witness cited by the filings says the girl, a high school junior, was naked and said people were there to “engage in sexual activities” while drugs including cocaine and ecstasy were present.

The documents were filed by lawyers trying to recoup legal fees in a lawsuit filed by Chris Dorworth—a lobbyist friend of Gaetz’s who hosted the alleged party at his Florida home.
