Every day is a new terror with Congressman Matt Gaetz, who as of this writing has still not resigned from Congress. He’s a MAGA Republican and he perhaps believes that he can wait this out, or get away with just being mildly censured by the House, like Marjorie Taylor Greene. Last week, we heard about the far-reaching FBI investigation into Gaetz and a handful of his pervert associates, all of whom were participating in a human trafficking operation. Gaetz in particular had/has a thing for teenage girls, but he seemingly also hunted for women on sugar-daddy sites. He also took photos of women and girls and he would often show the photos (on his phone) to other Congressman on the floor of the House.
Dozens of stories broke across the holiday weekend about Matt Gaetz. CNN’s Dana Bash said on-air that his former and current Republican colleagues don’t have his back. Bash said they’ve been texting her and “I actually can’t repeat what some of them say on morning television… Again, we’re talking about his fellow Republicans.” Gaetz’s communications director Luke Ball also quit that bitch on Friday. It’s not like Ball is a paragon of conservative principles or anything, he’s just another rat fleeing from the SS Human Trafficker. Gaetz’s perversions and criminal behavior are also not shocking to those who know him – he would often brag about his access to women and girls.
Rep. Matt Gaetz repeatedly boasted to people involved in Florida politics about women he met through a county tax collector who has since been charged by federal authorities with sex trafficking of a minor, according to two people who heard his comments directly.
They said the Republican congressman, first elected in 2016, also showed them videos on his phone of naked or topless women on multiple occasions, including at parties with Joel Greenberg, the former tax collector for Seminole County. The women appeared to be adults, and could be seen dancing, hanging out by a pool and, in one case, using a hula hoop without clothing, the people said.
“Matt was never shy about talking about his relationship to Joel and the access to women that Joel provided him,” said one of these people who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to be candid. “What these videos implied was that there was something of a sexual nature going on with everyone.”
So he was massively indiscreet (at best) and at worst, he was openly bragging about his sexual conquests of paying women to sleep with him, not to mention trafficking children into Florida. Oh, and there are stories about Gaetz’s behavior when he was in the Florida state House – he behaved like a psychotic frat boy. He and other reps created a “game” where they awarded each other points for sleeping with women:
Amid an ongoing federal probe into GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz (Fla.) for potential sex trafficking and other related charges, allegations have resurfaced that the congressman participated in a “game” while serving in the Florida state House in which he allegedly scored his female sexual conquests. ABC News reported Friday that sources said that during his time in the state House, Gaetz and a group of other young male lawmakers participated in the game, in which they would allegedly grant points for different women, including interns, staffers and other female colleagues in the state House.
One source said that a group of women that the male lawmakers believed were “virgins” were also targets of the alleged scoring game. Some women who worked in the state House instead opted to call the younger lawmaker “Creepy Gaetz,” following several alleged uncomfortable encounters with him, the sources said.
Disgusting. Pathetic. Matt Gaetz is a one-man Law & Order: SVU episode.

Urgh. He has that face that my mother always warned me about. Let’s hope this creep and his pals are arrested and removed asap from society.
The girl in the blue shirt at the HS looks like the same girl w Matt
He votes on laws regarding domestic violence against women and health care and abortion access for women.
He doesn’t think women should have agency over their own bodies. It follows that he’s a pedo.
He also votes on human trafficking laws & was the only no vote on a human trafficking bill in 2017.
Now we know why….he needs his underage girls and boys🤮
Oh boy, and now Greenberg is facing 33 charges so close to trial…methinks someone is going to be very tempted to start talking. Strap in Gaetz, times are about to get very bumpy. Couldn’t happen to a better person! Also….that whole Joel Greenberg story is HORRIFYING. Sometimes I wonder if these people go so hard for trump because they’re counting on protection (lindsey graham is the other one, I have several friends who engage in sex work and those stories about him didn’t come from nowhere). Then suddenly they realize they can weaponize their own supporters and think they can do just about anything and simply say, “it’s a setup!” And their supporters will believe it. Luckily those supporters aren’t the ones running these investigations.
I think Greenberg has been talking for a while now. That’s why they’re investigating Gaetz — because Greenberg started singing to save his own ass.
The guy legit stalked girls via the florida ID system to prey on them. And OMG the thread of all the stuff greenberg did was enough to fill a book. There was a insane twitter thread about it.
Guy literally set a tax office ON FIRE.
Sweet Lord
I don’t care how much he paid them, that had to be the most excruciating 3 minutes of those women’s lives.
I would say that three minutes is generous. He’s probably a one pump and dump guy. Reprehensible in any case and horrifying for those women he used.
So he got engaged to deflect from all this? I wonder if his fiancee thinks they are in a legit relationship or if she agreed to do this?
The guys on Crooked Media have had a nickname for Gaetz for years: Human Frat Paddle Matt Gaetz. Perfect. He is truly vile. But so are so, so many others. This world, sigh.
He totally got engaged to deflect. His so-called affianced is a “Ginger Luckey”. Her brother is a billionaire and donated big time to Trump’s campaign. Google Palmer Luckey and ZeniMax lawsuit as well as “firing and political controversy”, he’s pretty shady. I hope she’s flushed the ring down the toilet and run far, far away.
Men did this all the time. The fact he thinks he can still do it and get away with it is nothing but ignorant hubris. When I worked at an international Finnish oil company, the trading department, all the traders worked within this glass enclosure we called the fish bowl. All but one were married with children. And every day was the same. Whenever a new female entered the bowl, hands went on the desk to rate. As employees always walking in and out, and sometimes conducting work within the bowl, we wouldn’t be rated daily, only if we knocked it out of the park on any given day, which we had to do if home office was visiting. And every Friday when the market closed, the men would gather at the local high-end strip club for super expensive “steak dinners” which we’d all hear about Monday morning. I have stories. Lots and lots of disgusting stories. This was, after all, the oil industry. In Texas. I’ve been fighting for women for a very long time.
Jesus that’s awful.
It was. And they hated it when I would steer females directly into the conference room for meetings instead of parading them in front of the glass, or God forbid, inside. I remember that becoming the essence of my existence during those years. Forget mainframe management, I was the usher of women both young and old.
i have a similiar story working with a LARGE humanitarian organization, sounds like schmunited schmations – legal interns rating other interns on a 1-10 scale and passing a list around – they were found out and not even one of them went home; stories of men from all walks of life exploiting vulnerable woman of all ages and life experiences and all walks of life, of men touching women inappropriately and nothing is done or the complainants are marginalized. The story that went around last summer about an employee in a car in the middle east is in fact a very realistic story on every deployment, and i know who that person was, and know it to be true. The horror stories that would come out and be heard now would peel your skin off. 336 [exploitation] allegations were lodged against civilian personnel working under that organizations umbrella in 2020 and NOTHING was done. I wish more women would stand up and speak, the internet has changed the way the world listens now, because previously we were all quashed in what would be heard.
Exactly. Nothing was ever done. EVER. And the more horrifying the story was, the higher the fives were they gave each other.
Yeah, my friend who used to work for the US military has similar stories about women being rated in the military (which was kind of like… duh). I don’t know her ranking in the military because I’m a total ignoramus about those things but she worked in intelligence and was deployed to Afghanistan. I’m really NOT surprised about the US military, but some of the crude stories she told me were really shocking.
Now for all I know, behind my back the guys at my previous job in my department were probably doing the same thing. I wouldn’t be surprised at all.
I worked in film, and I have similar stories. Men playing “guess her bra size” and then coming up to grab breasts to “see who won.”
The whole “make a sandwich !” Gross sexual abuse of having two women who work for them on either side of them, when we all knew and heard about how he was having sex with both of them (and then would dump them and move on).
Obvious attempt to pit women against each other to be chosen by men as “most f*ckab,e” which lets be honest, some of us found repulsive because guess what, we didn’t want to have sex with any of them.
So many stories, so much proof, nothing ever done.
Same experience, law firm.
I have a lot of stories like this about my former NYC office workplace or WORSE.
Yep every law firm I’ve ever worked for. Once had a partner tell me I was too pretty to work there and should have had a “dumb hot girl career” like a pre-k teacher.
Holy Crap that is horrific
My ex was a lawyer. The reason he became my ex was because the law firm he worked for as a partner was a total cesspool of affairs with both staff and clients. The shlt that went on there was unbelievable and they too had a rating system. His secretary was VERY pretty and flirtatious, and it was evident to everyone that he thought he stood a chance with her. Well, turns out she was having an affair with the very married senior partner who was twice her age and broke up his marriage. I left him shortly thereafter.
The army is terrible. If my daughter wanted to join, I would be worried for her safety around some of those men. I spent 10 years in between active, ROTC, and reserves, and it was constant grossness. When someone says ‘support our troops” all I can think of is how awful many of the men are. They aren’t all like that, but enough that it left a very bad impression.
No free girl school cookies for you, Sir.
So was Nestor’s job to procure girls for Gaetz and his disgusting friends?
I absolutely think he used Nestor to have access to young girls. He groomed him to help groom them.
Also as someone mentioned yesterday, I think Trump called him “Rick” on purpose because he already knew that he’d distance himself from him in the future.
It occurred to me that if he was showing photos around and bragging in the statehouse and Congress he probably did so in the White House as well. Utterly vile
But Trump wanted to defend him, according to reporting. He had to be stopped from defending this POS. Which makes sense, because Trump is the same as Gaetz.
I really have contempt for how the media is handling this. First of all, they never followed up on the story about his sex game. I believe I read about it last year, or two years ago. Then, the Nestor thing. Why is he calling this kid his son? He never adopted him. Nestor’s father is ALIVE. HE’S NOT HIS SON. Two huge red flags that should have brought on deep journalistic investigations.
Then you get Dana Bash and her “reporting”. If some Republican congressman called me to Gossip Girl Gaetz, I’d only want to know this: Did he show you the pictures? If yes, why didn’t you report him? Didn’t you think his victims had the right to know what he was doing with their nude pics?
Can we also talk about Gaetz visiting high schools? The rare time we had politicians visiting our high school, their time was very tight. They came, they spoke, they left. There was no cruising lunch tables. I don’t understand how the leadership at these schools just let him roam, it almost looks like?
I spent more time than I would like to admit examining his face to figure out what I have always found repulsive about it (even before I knew anything about him). As I work in a sexual assault agency, I know full well that most offenders don’t have a “look” at all – they look like every day, trusted people. But Gaetz….all I can think of is the smugness in his eyes and the sneer in his smile maybe? Most offenders try to hide…he’s clearly proud of himself. Double dangerous.
THIS!!! You cannot tell and it’s not always who you would think.
interesting that the only students gathered around him for that selfie at Pace HS are female
Yes. It’s just gross to think about the things he must have said when showing that picture around to his perv friends.
He’s so vile. At least two of those girls have braces! They’re children!!
The girl in the white top with the gray beads in the middle looks like she’s got his number, she’s cringing and hunching away from him. I can’t fathom administration just giving this predator free range to access the children at that school. Gross, gross, gross.
AMA1977 I was just noticing that. her body language is like “dude’s creepy”.
Once Gaetz is out of the way, Ivanka will have a clear path to the Senate.
All of that stunt-queening & dramatics this doofus was doing must have made him believed he would be the Orange Menace 2.0…but in reality it just highlighted his criminality.
I really hope that the identities of these trafficked children and women can be kept confidential (if the survivors choose it). I feel gross even looking at the photo of him with those smiling children.
I went to the high school he’s pictured at near the bottom, this human frat paddle is my congressman. I’d apologize, but I didn’t vote for him. He gets elected because the people here are single issue voters.
Roger Stone, who was photographed with many of the people who attacked the Capital, is advising Matt. So Matt probably won’t face any consequences for his actions, seeing as how Roger Stone still hasn’t faced any consequences for the role he played in the insurrection and helping Russia attack our elections. I don’t understand why the Democrats always leave it up to Kevin, who also played a role in the insurrection, to do the “right thing”. The republicans have learned that they can do and say whatever they want and there won’t be any consequences for their actions. There has to be more oversight because the republicans are getting bolder and meaner. Matt was at work when he was showing those photos of women and girls, at any other job he would have been fired on the spot.
It’s being reported that DeSantis, who still hasn’t faced any consequences for using his friendship with a judge to get a former employee who challenged his handling of the pandemic arrested and was exposed at least 3 times for purposely under-reporting Covid cases and deaths(ever month the press acts like this is a new story), hung out with Matt and his friend. This doesn’t surprise me. What surprises is how these republican governors can do whatever they want and won’t ever be held accountable.
