I wonder if he kept lists of recipients of his services.

Obviously just reimbursements for all the frozen burritos he and Gaetzy ate while they were binging on coke and ecstacy and consensually having sex with these delightful young ladies, as one does.

Gaetz it seems can still clam he did nothing illegal, and GOP voters have shown us they don’t care about this kind of thing so long as the libs are “owned.” I hope something more solid comes up

‘Love hotel’ emojoi, indeed! What a friggin’ creep.

What was that old song refrain…“Third rate romance. Low rent rendezvous…”?

This is why I read TPM - I learn something new every day. Had no idea that “:love_hotel:” was “love hotel”.

I can only imagine what the recipients of my past text messages thought I was implying…

I’d be happy if the MSM stopped referring to these trysts as “dates.” The women are “turning tricks.” The men are “johns.” There’s no “dating” going on, here.

I don’t know, Roy Moore’s harassment of teen girls decades earlier handed Doug Jones a Senate seat in AL even if it was brief. But it doesn’t matter what GOP voters think. What matters is what everyone else thinks, all the other voters who aren’t hardcore GOPers. For that reason, I hope Gaetz hangs on for as long as possible.

So a man gives a child food, as he clearly noted in the venmo, and everyone’s all whiny about it?!?

Sheesh, they’d crucify Jesus himself if He showed up with a fish.

A shame Repubs were so focused on chasing Hunter laptops and being fauxraged over Dr Seuss books instead of policing this entitled clout chasing perv.

As Politico stated in a really off putting manner DeSantis is winning the pandemic. That picture alone is grounds for quarantine.

I have no idea what prostitutes cost, but $300 seems low to me for an escort. That said, if they were paying, on average $300 per, and Greeberg made 150 of these payments, that would work out to $45,000.

Now where did a tax collector get $45,000 to spend on hookers?

Hey, who among us hasn’t paid for sex with minors using phone apps?

Er, I meant Amazon orders for minor items like sex toys and soap. My bad.

I hope the DOJ is checking the ages of these girls all the way back to their birth certificates. Because Greenberg wasn’t only Gaetz’s pimp. He was his supplier of fake ID’s as well.
