Originally published at: House Ethics Members Dither On Gaetz Report As Senate Gears Up For ‘Kavanaugh On Steroids’
After a closed-door meeting that lasted almost two and half hours, House Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guest (R-MS) on Wednesday said that the members did not come to an agreement to release the report on its investigation of now-former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL). “There was not an agreement by the committee to release the report,”…
Mango Mussolini isn’t even in the Oval Office yet and chaos reigns.
Chaos is normality for trump
He prefers it over actual reality
Ferrous the Grey takes refuge in his box…
The ethics committee needs to refer the ethics committee to the ethics committee.
…arrghhhhh…
Yes, because a contentious confirmation process completely derailed Boof’s Supine Court nomination. /s
The Gaetz one will be just as impactful. That is, make no difference whatsoever. I’m sure Collins won’t get fooled again.
It’s too bad the “ethics” committee members aren’t investigated to determine if they’re ethical or not.
So a Dem administration could indict Diddy for sex trafficking but not Gaetz?
Wasn’t it Hawley that said the representatives were engaged in drug laced orgies?
There used to be a different standard of ethical behavior for an Attorney General nominee. As an example google ‘Zoe Baird’
Folks, it’s only gonna get worse. I eagerly await the nation going full Idiocracy.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Pretty sure you’re thinking of Madison Cawthorn.

This lack of report release for the much hated Gaetz (by Repubs) is not surprising. It will Rinse and Repeat.
This is a pretty accurate representation (except for Voldemort driving the garbage truck):
So the GOP has no ethics.
Not surprising.
The GOP has been the leader in corruption for decades. Yes, there are corrupt Dems too, but the confluence of corporate greed and public policy is in excess of anything they do. And the stupids swallow it.
But if a Democrat gets a blow job from an adult intern, and it’s impeachment time.
Someone bring me my winnings, as I’m shocked, shocked that Republicans refused to release the Gaetz ethics report. Maybe MTG scared them by threatening to release all the secrets if they let the Gaetz report out, or maybe they are just that afraid of Trump and will roll over and do whatever he says.
I would bet on a leak of the report at some point, it’s just too much in demand to remain secret. We already know a lot of information from it, but having the whole report really is necessary…especially since it will show that Republicans were willing to keep Gaetz around despite odious behavior.
The confirmation hearings are going to be awesome…Gaetz will use the Kavanaugh method to attack every single person that asks him a hard question, and Republicans will mostly play nice despite how completely unqualified he is. They probably fear having the DoJ aimed at them, they know that true believers take out their sometimes allies before going after the opposition.
It’s going to leak. It HAS to leak.
The amount of buyer’s remorse Trump voters are going to have in 2025 is off the charts. The only question is will they ever be willing to admit it.
