I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:

  1. Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.

  2. Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.

  3. Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

And absolutely nothing will be done about it. Well, something bad may happen to that woman now. This is the new world order.

Gaetz is too powerful and in the party of power so I agree nothing will be done. I do hope the House Ethics Committee releases or leaks all the evidence they've collected during the investigation though.

While this case has certainly been weird in many ways--including due to how it was all revealed to the public in the first place (this is by far the strangest cable news interviews I've ever seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQzLCHLle-g)--the committee's persistence on someone who is more or less a nobody unless you're on the right makes me feel like there's got to be some truth to the accusations. Something had to have happened, and at the very least, we deserve to know the details.
