GOP Ethics chair: We don't take orders from Speaker Johnson on the Gaetz report https://www.rawstory.com/michael-guest-matt-gaetz/ House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) does not get to dictate what the House Ethics Committee does, said the bipartisan committee's Republican chair on Monday, per Politico. The committee has to decide whether to release a potentially explosive report into former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who faces an investigation into alleged child sex trafficking, illicit drug use, and acceptance of improper gifts, among other transgressions. Gaetz, who was tapped by Donald Trump to serve as his attorney general last week, resigned from Congress shortly after the nomination was announced. Johnson has argued that because Gaetz is no longer a member of Congress, he is outside the jurisdiction of the Ethics Committee and it is no longer appropriate to release the report. However some experts have noted that this is not precedent, and several former Ethics Committees chose to release reports on scandal-plagued members of Congress who had already resigned. And there is mounting pressure from Senate Republicans who themselves want to see the report before the nomination can be put to a vote. Regardless, Ethics Committee chair Michael Guest (R-MS) has not tipped his own hand about whether he'll actually vote to release the report — but told Politico that the pressure from Johnson will not be a factor. “We did talk this weekend. I appreciate Mike reaching out,” said Guest. “I don't see it having an impact on what we as a committee ultimately decide.” He added that the Trump transition team has not been in touch with him. The Ethics Committee was originally supposed to vote on whether to release the report last Friday, but that vote was canceled at the last minute. A new vote is currently scheduled for Wednesday.
I feel its hard for supporters of the Left to be taken seriously after being silent about transgenderism being foisted upon children in and outside on school at the objection of mothers. There are biological men in woman's sports at the objection of woman athletes. Biological men in woman's locker rooms over the objection of woman that use those restrooms. Is not the Left more associated with sexual violence against women than men? Perhaps there are income and or racial components to this. It seem likely, based upon apparent country of origin, the supply chains that provides prostitutes, including child prostitutes, to the wealthy, are made up of Leftists. I vaguely recall a media report on sex trafficking for the enjoyment of wealthy Middle Easterners. The mentioned story was too narrow in scope, from what I understand. All of the above sounds to me like a war on women by Leftists. What father can tolerate the idea of young, or any woman being forced into doing something against her will, either through coercion, induced drug dependence, or some other sort of economic imperative? Especially when those who are aware and have the means to do something about it? For the billions wasted on various US elections trying to convince voters that up is down, etc., what if this money went towards for female gender friendly policy and combating the sex trade? Hell, there might be more favorable outcomes in future elections for Democrats that pursue said policies. Now let's discuss Trump. The reporter you mentioned in regards to Trump was E. Jean Carroll? Wink. There was behind the scenes going on with Stormy, right? Who arranges the parties and procures the girls? Again, consider the entire supply chain. Were the guests aware or should have been aware of any underage girls at the parties? While Trump did not drink, could have intoxication affected judgement and impulse control of others? Situational familiarity reduced self restraint of certain individuals over time? Not offering a pass for partakers, rather lobbying for increased scrutiny over those who set things up. Epstein Island had flight logs of what, hundreds of pages long, with twenty plus entries per page? It was not just Republicans on those flight logs, right? Was not Trump a Democrat when the Epstein parties took place? Epstein was a former intelligence officer, correct? Were the Epstein parties a way for an entity to gain leverage over US politicians, members of the US legal system, Members of the media, and more? Is it not disingenuous to only target Trump when there are thousands of other entries that have not been challenged? Presumably, you have to be pretty important, worth influencing, to be at an Epstein party? Am I making sense here? It seems to me you are left dancing around trying to lay fault, plausibly justified, while trying to sweep your own people's actions under the rug. I heard that names were released, but apparently published in the mainstream media. That would be in of itself, interesting. These sex parties were a setup, at least on some level. Tempting human nature, perhaps? Peer pressure abounded? A setup with a goal to change the direction of the United States policy, if not culture, presumably to the worse, for the benefit of another? If trump knowingly had sex with a minor, he should have been held accountable along with the others, including those involved in DC Prostitution Ring One and DC Prostitution Ring Two. Notably, all key witnesses in each of the three aforementioned scandals "Committed suicide". This suggests the US government, likely including all three branches, including agencies, such as three letter agencies, and departments, such as the justice department, currently have individuals in high places that are compromised. No wonder the US Government does not seem responsive to voters interests. The US Government has been effectively hijacked, it seems. While Trump is far from perfect, and may even be bad, he is our only chance for reform over the next four years. If Trump is sincere at putting the effort in delivering the reforms, we will end up with a better functioning Government that could enhance geopolitical and even economic stability. Most importantly of all, restore faith of citizens in the US Government again. Nobody has to go to jail. Great emphasis should be placed upon discovering each detail of how this happened; understanding the processes involved in the subordination of our Government. We also need to understand in detail the thought patterns of the compromised in order to create safeguards and ways of detecting compromise early to avoid future hijackings. Would you like to see the US Government become responsive to the people again?
That's way too long. Look, it's very simple, don't let things you think are harmful be foisted on your kids. Simple. I don't know about the left you speak of but I am not helpless and harmless masquerading as a good person. Violence and conflict is a skill you learn and practice. Only narcissists have tried to casually fuck with me and only because they live in the delusion that they are main characters in life. They get stomped. It's a thing about such men, hurt them the right way, enough, and there is no blowback, no police, no nothing. You have to not a need a referee in life when it comes to protecting your children.
