Context:

U.S. Congressman Matt Gaetz is currently under investigation for possible involvement in sex trafficking of a 17-year-old girl.

I forgot about this thread and was a little alarmed by what looked like a very aggressive request in my inbox

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

An aggressive request for what, tho... ;)

Two fucks and a speedy departure, if I read you right

Greenberg told investigators that Gaetz and others participated in the same sex crimes that led him to be sent to federal prison, cooperation that initially delayed his sentencing and reduced the number of charges he was facing, but U.S. District Judge Gregory Presnell ultimately said Greenberg was among the most corrupt public officials he had ever encountered.

Mr. Gaetz invited a right-wing Holocaust denier to the State of the Union address in 2018, and attended an event last year where he said the Proud Boys had provided security, though he has distanced himself from the group on his podcast. When Democrats moved in 2019 to impeach Mr. Trump for the first time, Mr. Gaetz and a phalanx of Republicans following him barged past Capitol Police into the secure rooms of the House Intelligence Committee to briefly break up the investigation into the president.

February, a potential witness came forward alleging that she had had sex with the lawmaker at a drug-fueled party in 2021, when she was older than 21 years of age. The woman said she was paid to attend the event and has texts to prove her claims.

This. This is how you get factual information in front of the eyes of those who would otherwise prefer to stare at the sun.

Of course he also has “the dreaded X” on his suit jacket. For the unaware, having an “X” shape on the chest of your jacket is a sign of a bad fit.

He has a funny looking little face too

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

His little face is offset by his sixhead.

Its Max Payne

So what explains the X on his face?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I think he just looks like that 🤷

It's all part of God's plan 🙏

What is this style of joke called?

It's not really that important, but I love the execution of the "google this" meme.

It's inherently meant to target people who like the person in question right?

You might scoff at "he trafficked kids" if you like him (lol..), however by doing this you put them into research mode almost against their will 😂

the subreddit for it was "coolamericafacts"

Hows his "son" these days?

Someone should put "Where's Nestor?" billboards up in his district.
