Actually, I've changed my mind and now find the entire situation not only politically expedient, but very concerning for this teen: "Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz said on Thursday that he lives with a Cuban immigrant named Nestor whom he calls his son. "For all those wondering, this is my son Nestor," Gaetz tweeted along with a photo of him and the man he identified as Nestor. "We share no blood but he is my life. He came from Cuba (legally, of course) six years ago and lives with me in Florida. I am so proud of him and raising him has been the best, most rewarding thing I've done in my life." The Florida congressman's tweets came after he got into a shouting match with Louisiana Rep. Cedric Richmond at a House hearing this week on police reform. After Richmond discussed the injustice that Black people like him and his son face, Gaetz interjected and asked, "Are you suggesting that you're certain none of us have nonwhite children? Because you reflect on your Black son, and you said none of us could understand." Gaetz has previously posted photos and videos featuring Nestor in which he described him as a "local student" and a "helper." But Thursday was the first time he publicly referred to Nestor as his son." - Business Insider |

The kid’s mom — or someone pretending to be — was alive and posting on Instagram in May.
This is the dumbest lie ever. Now his ‘son’ is his ex-girlfriend’s brother? |
Gaetz said he adopted him. Not that he was his mentor. |
By far her not the headline here, but the fact that he and Katie Hill are friends is also very weird. |
Where are these Instagram posts? |
| On instagram. not hard to find |
| JHC! Who on earth believes this creep? We all know what this is. How is he not arrested? |
You are making stuff up about Gaetz and expanding on it in sick ways. Start thinking of people in terms of individuals, not groups, if you are capable of it. |
When people ask me who they are, I say, my nieces and nephews. Gaetz sees him as a son |
Why does the dog get a name but not the son? |
But he doesn’t have an adopted son, and he has never claimed him until now? His “son,” while being Latinx, is not black, so he used him as a prop to score a point in a debate. He trotted out his hidden “black” “son” to prove that he isn’t a racist. Gross. And the whole story is really bizarre. Don’t worry though, Twitter is on it. Optics fail. |
For the same reason my friends and family will not name their children when posting on Facebook and other social media. |

Wow. Someone has anger issues here. Might want to see someone about that. |
