GOP Leader McCarthy Defends Inaction On Rep. Gaetz | The Last Word | MSNBC
You know you’re in TROUBLE Matt, when you need to check their I D, for proof of adulthood. OMFG 🤮
They were making fake ID’s for the teen girls lmao… fking idiots!
Lmfao
Cuomo ?
musicians and movie personalities have been having ladies sign wavers of consent for years now. surprised that hasn’t caught on in washington.
Beavis defends Butt-Head.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Matt Gaetz is under investigation by the Justice Dept, and Matt Gaetz is on the House JUDICIARY Committee.
The House Judiciary Committee is charged with overseeing the administration of justice within the federal courts, administrative agencies and FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT ENTITIES.
This is a huge CONFLICT OF INTEREST. Matt Gaetz should be immediately removed from the Judiciary Committee until the investigation has been completed.
@hank hill just because it’s good tv doesn’t mean it’s not true. He could sue… He won’t.
@hank hill Sleeps?
@hank hill She was a spy, not him. How would he ever know.
@BigSteelThrill doesn’t matter still puts us in danger clearly he shouldn’t be on intel if he can’t sniff out a CCP spy
@hank hill Of course it matters. Facts matter. It was not on him to find a spy. Its not his job. It doesn’t get him removed.
Are we supposed to believe McCarthy? 😂
he said he will make judgement when FACTS are released and said if its true action will be taking what else is he suppose to say
Right that part
@hank hill
Watch Sean Hannity.
He knows how to paint houses.
The same McCarthy who said “QANONON, never heard of them” , when he’d been seen multiple times before pronouncing the word correctly and obviously aware of them.
The same McCarthy who had an adulterous affair with a married colleague?
We are watching a clown now as we speak
These two “reporters” I AGREE!!!
Yup. O’Donell or whatever he goes by is an activist hack.
…so he gave her money when she was 17 years and 364 days old, and on the stroke of midnight, it was “Come to Daddy”? Yeeeah…
Sick fool
Whatever those girls got paid it wasn’t enough 🤭
Lmfao
😆
Menedez? Is that what you speak of?
McCarthyism is back.
In what way?. To whom is the Witch-hunt focused, and on which subject?.
Gaetz is a first-termer in Congress and he’s on a Justice committee?
The orange turd got him on there.
Why do you think they are all sweating bullets? He has secrets…
Daddy has been pulling strings and calling in favors for him his whole life.
He just so happened to get on the judicial committee, so that means he’s getting a deal!!! Whered the standards, wheres the line??
You mean like the pass all the threats to lives from the left? Like the pass Hunter Biden is given? SMH
Anyone seen Kevin’s spine? No? Been missing alongside his brain it would seem.
His brain is up Individual 1’s behind, can’t speak on the spine. Don’t believe he ever had one tbh 😏
Family values and personal responsibility
‘Nuff said
gop values put kids in kennels
K-Mac made many trips to Florida… Check his nose.
He told you he was innocent? Well stop the investigation, we’re done here.
You talking about Cuomo
@Brandon Duarte both… you can condemn both of them for their actions
Pretty sure the girls got paid for school supplies and yearbook expenses.
Sounds like you did this before
Corrupt politicians have been around from the start. And we just allow it to continue.
You mean corrupt MSM.
Mainstream media is not corrupt.
@James Smith lol ok, tell me about the russia collusion that was being peddled for 3 years. What was the outcome?
This just in; Matt Gaetz wants to declare war on France for raising the age of consent to 15.
True
We should have let Germany take France 120 years ago…
Steve you can speak the truth. The Dems are not going to take your food stamps away .Be a man not a mouse
DOJ should continue to InvestiGaetz the PizzaGaetz and then CastiGaetz with PrisonGaetz before Matt SubjuGaetz another minor.
“Fortune makes stupid him who she wishes to destroy.” [in Latin: ‘Stultum facit Fortuna quem vult perdere.’ – Publilius Syrus in ‘Senteniae 612 written in the 1st century BC. ] Matt Gaetz qualifies! 😉
The gop would defend john wayne gacy as long as he was a member.
yet cuomo is still in office. haven’t heard much about him lately. successfully swept under the rug i suppose.
