The pedophilia is coming from inside the party?!
Also I love how every conservative is sprinting backwards with the goalposts here.
Paragon of conservative virtues and former leading figure of elected government officials, everyone.
Arrest him like the criminal he is.
Sorry, you must have missed the meeting, we do not do repercussions for anyone worth more than $1 million and a light skin tone. As punishment, we will just give him a high-paying political pundit job on OAN. Thank you for your concerns and please get fucked. Sincerely, United States Judicial System.
Edit: I can’t spell
Breaking News: Thing we all knew. In other news, GoP says facts presented are fake and they don’t believe them. Nothing changes.
So he is qualified. Only Rapists are allowed in.
Seriously, it wasn’t even as lite as the titile makes it out to be.
“Gaetz did drugs while paying a child who hadnt even made it to her final year of high school while serving as a GOP representative and the GOP covered for him” would be more accurate
“Matt Gaetz does Republican shit.” would’ve been accurate.
Ok so now put him in jail wtf?
And bitches wonder why we’re cheering Luigi, when shit like this doesn’t even matter?
You can be against this kind of behavior while also not celebrating murder, you know?
I think many people are celebrating the karma. If anyone had it coming, he sure did.
You know?
Not the one you responded to, but the evidence is quite damning, so yes I’d go stop far as to say its very reasonable to say that we know.
I was trying to reference the commenter above. :(
Luigi didn’t commit murder. It was community self defense.
A CEO is a position, not a person. Killing him isn’t any sort of defense when he isn’t actively endangering others.
It’s murder, even if it’s justified. Stop these idiotic word games. They only weaken your position.
He is mass murderer. Would you clutch pearls if someone assassinated a warlord?
Pointing out your wanton violation of language isn’t pearl clutching.
If your use of the word warlord is equivocated to all hell like your other vocab choices our warlord might be a janitor or some shit, so it’s hard to say.
Edit: also, merry christmas. I hope the holiday season has been well :)
Thanks, but I’m 100% cool with vigilante justice for a man who profited at the death and misery of countless others. I’ll take Luigi’s justice when there is no alternative. And there is none, truly. Otherwise the rapists Gaetz and Trump would be rotting in prison.
But hey: enjoy your moral high ground.
You can be, but the world will be a better place in 50 years if 7 billion people were murdered today ,so you also dont have to.
Uh what?
Knowing Matt I am not shocked.
The correct phrasing is raped. He raped a child.
No, he is influential and rich. So the most damning phrase can be „had sex with“. The alternatives were „seduced“ or „was seduced by“.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they even go with “was raped by”, that she did it just to get him in trouble and he had no choice.
Engaged in amorous behavior with a woman some years younger than him.
“had relations with a young woman”
… had sex with an underage girl…
So, rape? Underage people can’t consent, it’s rape. He’s a pedophile.
inb4 the weirdos come saying “well she was 17, so he’s acktually a hebo whatever blah blah” as if it matters
That would matter in New York, just ask Jerry Seinfeld
It matters only in that it gives cover to the extra extra sick ones that go after young children.
Yup. The report specifically found he violated FL statutory rape law, among other laws, but headlines continue to not call it what it is.
America’s willingness to elect pedophiles/rapists to the highest positions in their country is… baffling. To then have their news not even use those words just makes me worry so much for women in the US. Like seriously, ‘sex with underage girl,’ we have specific words for that. Embarrassing.
It’s not baffling. Sad and terrible, but not baffling at all.
Yup. It’s a big club, and we ain’t in it.
As a non-American (Canadian), it’s baffling to me. Our Conservatives have been quite horrific in many decisions (like refusing to admit climate change exists, for example), but I do actually think they would turn on one of their own who was a pedophile. Maybe not in a year or so, but for now, I do believe they would. To see people celebrate these monstrous things in their leaders is terrifying.
It is baffling, especially since this is the same country where people have been arrested for CP because they had photos of themselves.
It’s the double standards in these laws that get me.
Just look at religion for answers to that puzzle. The entire schtick is a manual for giving yourself and your friends easy outs from your constant and consistent bad behaviour

I guess that could be why; up here in Canada it’s political suicide to be openly religious (though I think the Cons will change their tune on that next election.)
Stranger things have happened
These are the people the modern Republican party puts forth. These are the “values” we are told we need.
How could he possibly not? How could people look at him and think he wouldn’t? The dude FUCKING looks like some sort of evil villain. That or a Dollar Tree Beavis.
I knew about this years ago. You knew about it. Our neighbors knew about. But still we gotta go through this wishy washy bullshit from those who are supposed to be leaders saying that this is all suddenly “coming to light”. Fuck no it isn’t.
Fetal Alcohol syndrome evil Elvis is who I see but Dollar Tree Beavis is pretty spot on too

Why are lashing out at an obvious troll.
Read their posts. Guy is as anti Muslim as you can get. Like, it’s his mission to be the most hateful, racist, bigoted person on earth. While breathing their own farts as absolute truth.
They’re worse than a troll.
They’re an angry fucking moron.

I wasn’t talking about you. I was talking to you.
Buy thanks for playing.
I was talking about the guy with the username Allah. The guy you think supports Islam.
You’re so hateful you can’t even see you attacked your own hatebuddy.
Huh? No? Do you not know how Lemmy works? That link at the top is to an article written by a journalist. That is where this information comes from.
I dunno, maybe the fact that he sent money to a guy on several occasions, who then sent that exact amount to multiple different young girls, and the that guy also got convicted for sex trafficking? Like fuckin years ago??
I came from your mom’s house but she seemed over 17.
What?
Someone forgot to take their meds again.
You mean the evidence collected by the bipartisan congressional committee investigating the credible and substantiated rape allegations against Matt Gaetz?
Assuming
/sI think the secret to enjoying the Internet is s just always assuming /s when you are unsure
So the guy who doesn’t think [Matt Gaetz] is a pedophile is wrong?
But I was told by someone here on lemmy that there wasn’t possibly time to lay charges, since we only learned about last month!!
matt gaetz, confirmed pedophile
Where are all the pizzagate dipshits now?
About to take elected office.
