“[Gaetz] used to walk around the cloakroom showing people porno of him and his latest girlfriend,” one former Republican lawmaker told @elainejgodfrey. “He’d show me a video, and I’d say, ‘That’s great, Matt.’ Like, what kind of a reaction do you want?” theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

Jack Smith closing up shop and dropping all charges against Trump is precisely how Merrick Garland intended this to go down. He’s worse than Bill Barr.

Meanwhile on Russian state TV: Another translated clip of Tucker Carlson and Tulsi Gabbard, introduced by state TV host Vladimir Soloviev as "Our girlfriend Tulsi." After the clip plays, one panelist asks: "Is she some sort of a Russian agent?" The host quickly replies: "Yes."

Former AG Kamala Harris enjoyed a glass of wine while playing a game with kids. MAGA: THAT IS DISQUALIFYING WHO DOES THAT!!!! Potentially future AG Matt Gaetz is accused of sex trafficking kids. MAGA: THIS IS EPIC!!! CRY HARDER LIBS!!! But tell me more about those eggs.

NEW: Elise Stefanik, Trump’s UN ambassador pick is now refusing to stand by her past push for Ukraine’s NATO membership — which she said was critical to regional stability. Her office also declined to say whether she still believes Russia committed genocide in Ukraine. cnn.com/2024/11/13/politics/…

Best news ever.
Mike Johnson just said that Matt Gaetz offered up his resignation — effective immediately — from the House.

Republican Senators gobsmacked by Gaetz AG selection - but they've also toed the line for Trump as he's complained about "weaponized DOJ," "Lawfare" and a "deep state" out to get him. Are they really going to oppose the avatar of that anti-DOJ movement now? I wouldn't bet on it.
.@ChuckGrassley was so exasperated by Gaetz questions that he stopped talking to reporters & stood there stomefaced for 30 seconds

Kevin McCarthy on Matt Gaetz: “I'll give you the truth why I'm not speaker. It's because one person, a member of Congress, wanted me to stop an ethics complaint because he slept with a 17-year-old…”

So did the normies who voted for Trump because they think Biden made bacon more expensive realize that Matt Gaetz would be AG, a Putin propagandist would be DNI, and a Fox host would be SecDef? I have a feeling this won’t be the last time we say that we tried to warn you.

Gaetz is actually lucky members of the House don't get a vote on nominations.
Early reaction from GOP members on Trump selecting Matt Gaetz for AG. Rep. Don Bacon: “I’ve got no good comment.”

Matt Gaetz for Attorney General?! The GOP's on a very dangerous path here. It’s like putting the Hamburglar in charge of McDonald's security. Will they sacrifice all remaining integrity to confirm this choice? It's deeply alarming that he could be running justice in our country.

Shot down by who? The Supreme Court that just made him king? Y'all are about to have a real reckoning with the fact that laws now no longer exist for Republicans
For the record... No, you can't just deport people without due process. No, you can't just fire countless government employees without due process. And no, you can't just impose tariffs without due process. He's gonna try, and he's gonna get shot down.

I don’t believe presidential adjournment power has ever been used in US history. Correct me if I’m wrong, historians!
Hope it's wrong, but I'm hearing through the grapevine about this bonkers plan: Trump would adjourn both Houses of Congress under Article II, section 3, and then recess-appoint his Cabinet.
