Thomas Massie is the only Congressman who actually represents what I believe.
However, Matt Gaetz would be the second closest.
Having two Congressmen who maybe sort of represent the America people is not actually a threat to the government (and if anything, it makes it seem more legitimate than it actually is), but the Jews are obsessed with having zero legitimate Congressmen.
So, you get rape hoaxed.
A bipartisan Capitol Hill committee is investigating Matt Gaetz, the far-right Republican congressman and vocal Donald Trump supporter, over longstanding allegations of sexual misconduct, illicit drug use and other alleged ethical breaches, it said on Tuesday.
The announcement by the House ethics committee – which contains an equal number of Democrats and Republicans – reignited a swirl of scandal surrounding the outspoken Trump ally that had abated somewhat after an earlier criminal investigation into allegations against him was dropped.
In a statement, the committee said it had spoken to dozens of witnesses, issued 25 subpoenas, and reviewed thousands of pages of documents as part of its long-running investigation into Gaetz’s conduct, which was initially opened in April 2021.
As a result of that review, the committee said, certain allegations deserved further examination.
“The committee is reviewing allegations … that Representative Gaetz may have: engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use, accepted improper gifts, dispensed special privileges and favours to individuals with whom he had a personal relationship, and sought to obstruct government investigations of his conduct,” it said.
The committee said other allegations made against Gaetz – specifically those of sharing inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, misusing state identification records, improper personal use of campaign funds and accepting a bribe – were no longer being investigated.
The committee’s statement came a day after Gaetz issued what appeared to be a pre-emptive post on X in which he accused it of pursuing “frivolous investigations” into him and compared its tactics to the Soviet Union.
This whole concept of “House ethics” is dumb and illegal.
If Gaetz committed crimes, he should be charged with crimes. Instead, there are no criminal charges, but an “ethics investigation.”
People voted for him. He’s an elected government official. Even if his ethics are very low, that is not relevant to anything.
The House Ethics Committee has closed four probes into me, which emerged from lies intended solely to smear me. Instead of working with me to ban Congressional stock trading, the Ethics Committee is now opening new frivolous investigations. They are doing this to avoid the…
