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."

[b]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.[/b]"
