1) Thanks for trying to weassle out again using "if".
2) Field day if a DNC did the same. I have blasted Brandon for his sniffing very often. So try again.
Keep trying to play, nice try. Thanks for posting the DC law AFTER you posted the HI one. My statement is correct.
So, how come Gaetz isn't in handcuffs?
This is a shakedown that caught fire because Matt kicked Kevin McCarthy out of his job.
The things he was accused of were investigated by the DOJ. Since the crimes he was accused of were not supported by the evidence, there were no charges. He may have engaged in unsavory behaviors in some people's moral judgement, but the things he allegedly did are not the kinds of things the FBI charges people for.
The supposed 17 year old testified she never told him her age and he never asked. Even though it's technically a crime under FL statutory rape law, there's no sex trafficking component, and the event was mutually consensual. There was no coercion, no violence and no interstate travel involved as would normally be the case in someone charged with trafficking.
I remember when the President of the United States committed sexual harassment and adultery then lied about it to the American people before a blue dress appeared. He then confessed to everyone. He was impeached for lying to the special counsel while under oath, but not removed from office. The public's majority opinion was "It's just sex. Who wouldn't lie if they are married?" But somehow Gaetz is made out to be criminally guilty without the benefit of a trial.
If it wasn't for double standards, politics would have no standards at all.
