Matt Gaetz's Sex Trafficking Allegation Is No Surprise

preview

&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;As someone who has covered the issues of sex trafficking and drug abuse for years, there is no surprise in looking at Matt Gaetz's behaviors.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Florida lawmaker Anna Eskamani recently released an unsolicited voice message from Gaetz, along with his friend Joel Greenberg (currently in jail for identity theft, sex trafficking, and numerous other felony charges) that displayed the two apparently high on PCP, backing up previous claims of drug abuse. Other lawmakers are apparently in possession of evidence that Gaetz showed images of nude women on his phone to lawmakers on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Gaetz is part of a Florida political dynasty, a close friend and ally of Former President Donald Trump, and a 2021 CPAC speaker. No politician on the national level aside from Republican Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio (who covered up the sexual abuse of teenage boys as a wrestling coach) has stepped up to defend him, and Kevin McCarthy, the House Minority Leader, has announced that he will accept Matt Gaetz's resignation if the allegations are proven true.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Gaetz has apparently tried to suggest that the investigation is an extortion attempt against him, even though it was one that began under Trump Attorney General William Barr BEFORE any extortion attempts were allegedly made. His communications director has resigned after an odd interview on Tucker Carlson's show in which Gaetz apparently tried to get Carlson as an alibi. Carlson, visibly confused, refused the "generous offer." The official Gaetz claimed is extorting him, Dave McGee, it is worth noting, left the Justice Department 25 years ago. McGee's attorneys have announced defamation claims against Gaetz.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The sex trafficking charges are not difficult to prove: for everything Jared Fogle did, he was only ever convicted of crossing state lines to sleep with a 17-year-old prostitute (Fogle received a 15-year prison sentence). If he is convicted, Gaetz faces 20 years in prison with lifetime sex offender registration. Gaetz could also be charged with conspiracy if he is found to be involved in any of Greenberg's criminal activities: the latter is looking down the barrel of a life sentence.&nbsp; &nbsp; In 2017, Matt was the only U.S. Representative to vote "no" on a piece of legislation to combat human trafficking (it passed 418-1), which only deepens suspicion against Gaetz.Warrior.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The Russian government and Russian army is filled with murderers, war criminals, rapists, and all the other forms of scum that walk the Earth. Every Russian soldier killed, every Russian family ripped to shreds is a small victory for the rule of law, for democracy, for prosperity, and for humanity. We've already seen their actions contrasted against the compassion of the Ukrainian people, military, and legal system in a court of law. Within the past 10 days, one man pleaded guilty to war crimes for shooting a 62-year-old man riding his bike in a Russian-occupied city and was sentenced to life in prison while two more pleaded guilty to shelling Ukraine from Russia and face up to 12 years in prison when sentenced. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Since the war began, Russia has had an estimated 30,000 troops killed and 30,000 more injured, deserted, or captured, effectively taking 60,000 troops off of the battlefield out of their initial invasion force of roughly 175,000. This represents approximately 34 p&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Republicans have a history of helping causes they're trying to hurt with overblown, hyperbolic, theatric rhetoric. A prime example was during the confirmation hearings of Ketanji Brown Jackson, when Ted Cruz tried to paint her as racist toward white people (Rafael Cruz is not even white) by holding up children's books teaching something he apparently sees as controversial: racism is bad. When he read those books, sales exploded to the tune of millions of dollars, all of which went toward progressive authors. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The master of this craft, however, is Matt Gaetz. He made a remark on Twitter about "overeducated women" being a threat to society after the leak draft of the SCOTUS decision overturning Roe v. Wade &nbsp;was released in May of 2022. In response to these abhorrent remarks, activists started a website called overeducatedwomen.com &nbsp;that has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for six different women's rights groups. That wouldn't be the last time M&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;On March 7th, 2022, Guy Reffitt, the first Capitol insurrectionist to go to trial, was convicted of five felonies that could and should send him to prison for up to 60 years. Less than 24 hours later, Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was charged with conspiracy for his involvement in orchestrating the attack on the U.S. Capitol, just a week after Alabama Oath Keepers leader Joshua James became the first person to plead guilty to seditious conspiracy and Capitol rioter and convicted felon Matthew Perna offed himself. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The conviction of Reffitt is not the last Capitol riot case that will go to trial in March 2022 alone. Otero County County commissioner Couy Griffin, who has also been charged for illegally failing to register his New Mexico-based organization Cowboys for Trump and who had previously threatened to bring a gun to the inauguration of Joe Biden, illegally taken sand from a local national park, and more, will go on trial for trespassing in the U.S. Capitol on January
