Sir, yes, sir. The left will report to the work camps right away.


The Left works?


I guess we have to work now, sir. Thank you to MAGA for sustaining the country for the past century, sir.

To be fair, Repubs don’t want Gaetz either. I don’t think the Trump DOJ will focus on political revenge. It’s bad for the country. Trump will focus on making America great again and fixing up the mess left by Biden. He doesn’t have time to politically spar. The fact that he met with Biden at the WH after he tried to kill him with intentional Secret service neglect is proof of this.



Please give me whatever drug cocktail you are on!

Gaetz routinely worked with Democrats in the house on legislation. He actually did his job and worked for the country. He wasn’t a partisan hack. That’s why Republicans in the House and Senate dislike him. He’s also against lobbyist and Wall Street money buying Congress. That’s the real issue here and why they don’t want to confirm him. Wall Street was shocked Trump selected him after their celebration over his victory and his first selection of Rubio, who will obviously be an easy breezy confirmation from the Senate

He’s been described as a “Khan-servitive” for his steadfast support of Biden administration Federal Trade Commission boss Lina Khan, even as the Democratic regulator has drawn ire from much of the business community for her aggressive approach to policing corporate mergers and going after monopolies. And he was one of a number of Republicans behind a failed legislative push to constrain Big Tech power early on in President Joe Biden’s term.

At the same time, Gaetz has also been a consistent critic of presidents from both parties when it comes to use of unlimited presidential war powers. He’s been a consistent sponsor of bills to rescind the authorizations for use of military force that have underpinned much of the Global War on Terror, and in early 2020 he was one of only three House Republicans who backed a resolution to limit Trump’s ability to use military force against Iran.

He also teamed up with Democrats in what has thus far been a failed effort to enact stronger limits on stock trading among members of Congress. Indeed, Gaetz was the first House Republican to announce that he would not accept campaign contributions from political action committees. He made the announcement in a speech to the 2020 Conservative Political Action Conference, during which he said “honest capitalism” was “under attack by special interests and political action committees in the swamp of Washington, DC.”

Antitrust enforcement is an area where each party may shift as time goes on. Vance may be more open to Khan's approach as well, for instance.

Nope. No need.

But if the statute of limitations haven't run, the state and federal authorities could take a second look at him.

He actually did work across the aisle on a bunch of things. I know - you wouldn't expect it.

If he weren't such a sh**bag person he might have been an ok politician.
