If the report was exonerating, they’d release. Therefore, drawing the adverse inference: holy shit, trump nominated a child rapist to the justice department.
I saw a comment earlier I thought was interesting, this may be a way of forcing everyone to bend the knee, make them complicit
We all knows Gaetz is a kiddy diddler
Trump knew when we nominated him
Now everyone in congress knows. And they’ll allow it, because otherwise trump will turn on them
If he’s representing me, then I have a right to see it. Period.
I swear, these conservatives now lack any kind of moral standard.
“Now”
If you’re looking for the most morally reprehensible person in the room, just seek out the one who can’t stop injecting their religion into every unrelated conversation.
Except thats bullshit because house reports have been released after members resigned in the past.
Blatant disregard for anything in the way of violently grabbing power. This guy is gross.
removed please
Next time I’m in legal trouble I’ll just tell people that they can’t look at the evidence because I"m a private citizen
Those checks and balances are just a myth at this point.
Not at all. Political enemies of the Trump clan will be checked and balanced at every turn.
Rules for thee but not for me.
People in power should learn that these social contracts and norms are a peacekeeping measure and violating every single one isn’t a good way to keep the population peaceful.
Exactly. America was born as a nation because last time someone tried some bullshit like this we shot them all dead and moved out.
We’ve seen an awful lot of history repeating itself these days.
If they’re smart they’ll take the hint. But we all know how likely that is.
An extremely fragile democracy to say the least.
I can’t believe that this whole time it was just “please play by the rules” and that it was basically only enforced via tradition.
Literally the only thing required to take down the American Empire: some orange turd saying “nuh uh”
Always have been.
They wouldn’t show restraint for a Democrat. These are empty words
They literally showed pictures of hunter bidens Wang on Cspan and he was a private citizen. So spare me the theater.
Yeah, pretty sure the report about Al Franken still got released despite him resigning months earlier.
That’s DIFFERENT! That was a Private Citizens PENIS NOT Underage Sex Trafficking and Rape Testimonies! THOSE things are PRIVATE!
-Republicans who believe Pizzagate!
Gaetz was a congressperson when it all took place. That report is government property, AKA it belongs to all Americans.
It’s funny and a bit ironic how far Mr. Jesus (Johnson) has fallen since he took office. Going out of his way to protect pedophiles and rapists like Gaetz and Trump and doing nothing but looking after the interests of how much money his boss is going to be making.
_Matthew 6:24
No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money._
This may be a hot take but PEDOPHILES ARE NOT ENTITLED TO PRIVACY
I disagree with that as a general principle but this report should be released
General principle - they use that excuse to spy on everyone
Who is applying for a different government job.
As an alternative argument, that report almost certainly shows evidence of criminal wrongdoing, and it’d be weird to shield private citizens like that.
Either:
- The report incriminates him, and Johnson is defending a paedophile.
- The report exonerates him, and Johnson is actively preventing Gaetz’ exoneration.
Both options make Johnson a shitstain.
Nothing can make him a shitstain, as he already is. All we can do is increase size and smell.
Did I miss something? Are private citizens who rape children immune to prosecution?
No see… he was a public representative, which means he’s only accountable to the house ethics pannel and not local law enforcement.
It feels like watching those old Bonnie and Clyde and other famous historical criminals in the US that would say rob a bank, cops would be chasing them… and Oops they crossed state lines, I guess they get away this time.
Depends… mostly on party affiliation and bank account.
Guy defends the pedo that got him his job. What’s new with the Republican party?
