Gaetz’s main fear in all this seems to be that people will believe he needs to pay in order to have sex with someone.

I guess part of the plea deal is that he comes clean about everything. Including info about any of his co-conspirators. With a proviso that if he leaves anything out, the deal is then null and void.

Happy Thursday, Matt!

I hope all this Gaetz news won’t cause us to lose sight of what an awful human being Josh Hawley is.

Gaetz is about to find out that the only a$$hole that can take, take, take, and can say fuck you to everyone else (and get away with it) is tRump.

If he knows that Greenberg has anything to pin on him, then he knows that Greenberg will do so in order to reduce the sentence. This puts the pressure on Gaetz to cop a deal first and pin it all back on Greenberg. And that, my friends, would be worth the price of admission.

It looks tough for Gaetz. He’s a dangerous loudmouth but I think if he has information of value on the various Trump scams and the insurrection (he certainly had access to the pipeline of information) then I think cutting a deal with Gaetz for such info, if truly valuable and actionable, would be worth more than seeing him prosecuted and convicted.

I’m not about to forget. Is there anyone here who is going to forget?

This seems kind of like flipping the head of the crime family and getting him to rat out all the underlings. Greenberg has so many very serious charges against him, and we don’t know of any potential crimes by Gaetz other than the one sex trafficking investigation.

Guess we’ll know more sooner than expected.
