It's Jim Jordan TIME! - Matt Gaetz

Well after the house ousted Kevin McCarthy from Speaker it looks like the house Republicans voted to make Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) the nominee for speaker after an insurmountable wave of detractors forced Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) to withdraw his bid for the post on Thursday.



In a private secret ballot held on Friday, Jordan edged out surprise challenger Rep. Austin Scott, a Georgia Republican who announced Friday morning that he would enter the race as an alternative to the archconservative Ohio Republican.



The final tally was 124 votes for Jordan and 81 for Scott, according to Punchbowl News. It was a disappointing show for Jordan, who had worked for days to rally support, in contrast with Scott who entered the race seemingly on a whim just hours before the vote began.







It was Jim Jordan who initially narrowly lost the first private speaker vote to Scalise which for myself would have been a fine nomination but with his health issues being serious and with everything else he does I think his time left should be spent with what he's got on his cards already and with his family. He doesn't need the added pressure. So while while Jordan may be the party's official speaker designee, it's clear that title means very little if they don't fix the very noticible fractured House GOP.



As Jordan moves toward a speaker vote in the full House of Representatives, he could faces the same fundamental problem that ended Scalise's bid which was not having the votes to win. But I think he is ideal or Matt Gaetz could do well. And yes while I'd love for Donald Trump to become Speaker, and impeech both Biden and Harris and move into the Presidential chair until the next election! Having Jim Jordan there if not Trump helps me sleep better at night.



We saw how some holdouts again rebuked Jordan in a follow-up vote that asked lawmakers if they would support their new nominee on the floor, leaving Jordan with the tough task of bringing virtually all of them to his side in order to keep his bid viable. Bur in Jim Jordan I trust like I said so while some Republicans broke for the weekend without bringing a floor vote on Jordan, extending the unprecedented interregnum between speakers and capping a remarkable week of chaos and infighting among the GOP.



Jordan appeared to lose some backing even after becoming the nominee; Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN) said she voted for him but was prompted to reassess her support after witnessing “behind-the-scenes politics” and “backstabbing” on Friday. “He is a great American with strong conservative values, but I am not sure if he truly is the independent thinker and visionary leader we need to deliver for the American people,” Spartz said in a press release. “I will have to assess on Monday if Jim is the right person who will be held accountable to the same standard as Kevin was, or just another puppet for the swamp with a better bio.”



At least three GOP lawmakers have publicly put themselves in the never-Jordan camp thus far. It's fewer than the two dozen detractors who doomed Scalise’s run, but with 217 votes needed to take the speakership, Jordan can only afford to lose support from four Republicans.



It's also a near-certainty that more lawmakers will voice their opposition to voting for Jordan on the floor—particularly allies of Scalise, who remain furious over how the Ohio Republican maneuvered around him.



Rep. Ann Wagner (R-MO) told CNN that Jordan is a “non-starter,” and Reps. Mike Rogers (R-AL) and John Rutherford (R-FL) told POLITICO they’re also firmly in the no camp.



Rep. Carlos A. Gimenez (R-FL) made it clear that he still wants McCarthy reinstated, writing on X that “he should have never been removed to begin with.



Scott, who ran as a protest candidate to Jordan more than anything else, told reporters earlier in the day that “actually, I don't necessarily want to be Speaker of the House. I want a House that functions correctly.”



“We need to be a House that functions correctly, that means you have to do the right things the right way, what happened with the removal of Kevin McCarthy was the wrong thing the wrong way, not allowing Scalise to move forward was the wrong thing the wrong way,” Scott said.



Scott endorsed Jordan after being bested for the nomination, writing on X that “our conference has spoken, and now we must unite behind Jordan so we can get Congress back to work.” This is something I think in the end most of the people holding out will also come to when they see that spending more time on this would not help the people. So with that said I do think it's time these people get their act together and stand behind Jordan. And to quote MATT Gaetz himself! "It's JIM JORDAN TIME!"

Congress Showed UFO Evidence Previously Hidden From the rest of us!

Congress Showed UFO Evidence Previously Hidden From the rest of us! But anyone who listens or watches my shows know how deep I go with the UFOLOGY or UAP I go... I've been into this since I had my sightings as a kid out in Calirfonia and my story will be in my upcoming book. But this move by Congress is like the one lead by others like Stephen Bassett in the past. I've spoken to many in the subject and it's time this was fully disclosed.

Now did they bring out an Alien? NO! So until I see them walking around I can't say any of this is 100% facts.

So while this is nice to see........ Still doesn't completly show 100% proof. But again it's great to see them finally taking this topic serious. Check out the congress hearing below.

Prosecutors will not recommend charging Matt Gaetz in sex-trafficking investigation, report says 

Finally Prosecutors speak on the case with Matt Gaetz and as it turns out they will not recommend charging GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz in the Justice Department’s investigation into if the Florida congressman violated federal sex-trafficking laws, according to The Washington Post.

Citing anonymous sources, The Post reported that prosecutors were concerned with the credibility of two key witnesses and think they’d be unlikely to secure a conviction if they indicted Gaetz. Justice Department officials typically take the advice of career prosecutors but haven’t made a final decision on the matter yet, the report said.

According to NBC News, prosecutors were examining if the congressman committed three separate crimes: if he sex-trafficked a 17-year-old; if he violated the Mann Act, which prohibits the transportation of “any woman or girl for the purpose of prostitution or debauchery, or for any other immoral purpose” across state lines; and if he obstructed justice.

The existence of the investigation first became public last year, when The New York Times reported that investigators were examining if Gaetz had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old in 2019 and paid for her to travel with him.

One person familiar with the conversations told The Times that Gaetz told some women to say that he paid for dinners and hotel rooms as part of their dates if anyone asked about the nature of their relationships. The FBI executed a search warrant in late 2020 and seized Gaetz’s cell phone, as well as a phone belonging to his former girlfriend, who testified before a federal grand jury earlier this year. Matt Gaetz has denied wrongdoing and said last year that the allegations were part of an “organized criminal extortion” scheme against him. Last month, the Florida businessman Stephen Alford was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to attempting to extort Gaetz and his father for $25 million.

“Those who told lies about Congressman Matt Gaetz are going to prison, and Congressman Matt Gaetz is going back to Congress to continue fighting for America,” a spokesperson for Gaetz’s office told Insider.

Rep. Matt Gaetz will do anything to help Trump!

Gotta love Rep. Matt Gaetz folks this man is a machine! He was born to be a lawyer when you hear him speaks he’s very passionate, and knows what he’s saying. I’ve often found myself wondering how is it nobody on the left debates him? They can’t they know he will eat them alive, and this folks makes for him one day making a heck of a candidte for the highest office in the land. He made it clear on Wednesday he’s willing to stand up for former President Donald Trump in his Senate impeachment trial, even if it means resigning his House seat.

The Florida Republican’s comments came after reports surfaced confirming Trump’s initial legal team had failed to show the same level of commitment.

During a Wednesday interview on the War Room podcast, hosted by Steve Bannon and Raheem Kassam, Gaetz announced he would be willing to resign if Trump asked him to defend him.

“I love my district. I love representing them, but I view this cancellation of the Trump presidency and the Trump movement as one of the major risks to my people, both in my district and all throughout this great country,” Gaetz said.

“If the president called me and wanted me to go defend him on the floor of the Senate, that would be the top priority in my life.”

“I would leave my House seat. I would leave my home. I would do anything I had to do to ensure that the greatest president in my lifetime — one of the greatest presidents our country has ever had, maybe the greatest president our country has ever had — got a full-throated defense that wasn’t crouched down, that wasn’t in fear of losing some moderate Republican senator, but that was worthy of the fight that he gave to the great people of this country for four years.”

In Gaetz’s opinion, when it comes to Trump’s current team, “the president so far has gotten a low-energy defense.”

The news that Trump’s defense has been shaken up recently has left some wondering what’s going on especially because the upcoming impeachment case against the former president is nothing but a complete sham. But I think Trump knows what he’s doing, and I believe he will ride this out, and win this case like the last Impeachment hoax.

House Democratic impeachment managers filed a pre-trial brief with the U.S. Senate on Tuesday claiming Trump “summoned a mob to Washington, exhorted them to a frenzy, and aimed them like a loaded cannon down Pennsylvania Avenue,” referring to the Jan. 6 Capitol incursion. Which folks we all know now is total bullshit, and the Dems bath in bullshit let’s not forget this fact Trump repeatedly called for peace and asked the rioters to go home.

Even if Trump’s words on election fraud did contribute to heating tensions at the Capitol, his complicity pales in comparison to Democrat’s own culpability in heating up tensions with anti-police rhetoric over the course of the last year, which undeniably led to a countless number of riots and looting sprees that raged across the country for months on end especially during the “Summer of Love” and or “The Chop Zone!” Which sounds like a broke auto parts store… lol

Shortly after the Capitol incursion took place, Gaetz made that point quite clear during a fiery speech on the House floor in which he called his Democratic colleagues out for their hypocritical condemnation of then-President Trump.

“Another important point for the country is that this morning President Trump explicitly called for demonstrations and protests to be peaceful,” Gaetz said. “You can moan and groan, but he was far more explicit about his calls for peace than some of the BLM and left-wing rioters were this summer when we saw violence sweep across this nation.”

Leftists’ lust for power and domination wasn’t satiated by winning the presidency and Senate. They’ll only be satisfied when they completely destroy the one president that showed the world who they really are.

Thankfully, men like Matt Gaetz are willing to do what is right and fight back, even at a great personal cost.

If only more Republicans had the courage to speak out like Gaetz has throughout this entire process.

HYPOCRITICAL MUCH?

So while I have enjoy the videos of a fired up REP. MATT GAETZ, R-Fla., representing Team Trump in the whole impeachment fraud, and for the most part he’s done a fantastic job in fighting the democRATS during the impeachment scam against Trump one must say that while it’s the right move for him, and others who have decided to self-quarantine this week after coming in contact with an individual who tested positive for a novel coronavirus, which causes the disease Covid-19, at the Conservative Political Action Conference late last month. What’s not right is for someone like Gaetz’s to take time away from his job at Congress with paid leave considering that he did vote against us here in Florida from doing the same. While he can do it whiout the fear of losing pay or being fired? While this is a right few Americans share the fact that Gaetz voted to prohibit Florida residents from sharing that right, and than using it himiself is well a tad on the hypocritical side. I Call them how I see them folks, and I can like someones or what have done, and still find fault with other things they do.

Now look I know he’s pro Trump, and while he also voted against Trump on restrictions against IRAN after we got Qasem Soleimani. While I think Matt means well sometimes he makes boneheaded moves, and decides things which well leaves even the most supporter of his scratching their heads. He’s on a tight rope as it is, and should really consider taking his pay, and giving it back, and not taking a “paid sick leave” as showing unity with his own policy for Florida. Oh while I think paid sick leave is something all places should approve he voted against it, and now looks like a hypocrite for not following by his own vote. With that said
Gaetz’s office did not respond to a request for comment. The lawmaker has since tested negative for the SARS-CoV-2 virus but is continuing to self-quarantine “in an abundance of caution.” Members of Congress get paid a salary of $174,000 or more no matter what. They do not have to vote or be present in D.C., and Gaetz has missed votes all week.

Members of Congress can take unlimited paid sick leave, missing votes and social distancing, while collecting a $174k salary. They do so while carrying water for business lobbyists and voting down even minimum paid sick leave rights for Americans https://t.co/7bqvrSEnUp

Gaetz initially sought medical treatment from the Capitol’s Office of Attending Physician, the in-house government health clinic for high-level federal officials, alongside two other lawmakers, Reps. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., and Doug Collins, R-Ga., who also attended CPAC. Despite the national push for Americans to practice social distancing to curb spread of the coronavirus, many workers do not have the option to take paid sick leave or work remotely, and must continue to travel to work. Workers in many industrialized countries have paid sick leave, a right that has been opposed by business interests in the U.S. for decades. Over the last 10 years, many Americans have in fact lost the right for paid sick leave as corporate interests groups have pushed to roll back the right of local governments to enact paid sick leave policies.

In 2013, then-Gov. Rick Scott signed Gaetz-backed preemption legislation that barred every city and county in Florida from enacting paid sick leave legislation. Disney World, Darden Restaurants, and the Florida Chamber of Commerce promoted the Florida preemption effort. The Florida law was part of a national drive by industry that began as a reaction to an ordinance in San Francisco. In 2006, voters in San Francisco passed a referendum that required employers to provide paid medical leave for workers, a decision that sparked a movement across the country as other cities developed similar policies. The counterassault from the business lobby came a few years later, as Republicans began making electoral gains after the 2010 midterms. In 2011, then-Gov. Scott Walker signed a preemption bill into law in Wisconsin designed to override the 2008 Milwaukee ordinance providing paid sick days to workers. Later that year, the American Legislative Exchange Council, a lobbyist-run group that develops template legislation, championed the Walker legislation as a key policy that other states should emulate.

The ALEC committee tasked with leading the charge on banning local paid sick leave was headed by a lobbyist from Yum! Brands, the company that owns Kentucky Fried Chicken and Taco Bell. In states across the country, the ALEC legislation spread, with Republican-controlled legislative chambers rapidly passing laws to preempt paid sick leave. All told, business lobbying groups have pushed 22 states to enact preemption laws to make local city and county paid sick ordinances illegal. Although some large American employers have announced plans to voluntarily extend some paid sick leave policies to workers, the crisis around the novel coronavirus has forced the issue back into the national spotlight. Earlier this week, congressional Democrats unveiled federal legislation to combat the spread of the virus. The bill includes expanded food assistance, free lab testing for the coronavirus, extended unemployment benefits, and paid sick leave. This morning, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., vigorously pushed back, highlighting paid sick leave as a key provision his caucus would oppose. The bill, McCarthy said at a press conference, “forces permanent paid sick leave for all business without exemptions and no sunsets.” The GOP stance, notably, reflects the demands of the most powerful business lobby in Washington, D.C.: the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which represents the largest employers in America. “We believe this crisis should not be used as an opportunity to try to pass legislation that is poorly tailored to the situation and will not be signed into law,” Neil Bradley, the executive vice president of the Chamber wrote in a letter to Congress today. “This emergency bill should not create a federal, one-size-fits-all, permanent leave mandate on employers,” he added.

Ironically This afternoon, Florida Republican Senator Rick Scott announced that he is under a self-imposed quarantine after potentially making contact with a Brazilian delegate who has tested positive for the coronavirus.

“My office was alerted today by the Brazilian Embassy that a member of President Bolsonaro’s delegation tested positive for Coronavirus. On Monday, I met with the President in Miami, and while I do not believe I interacted with the infected person, that individual was in the same room as me. The Embassy said the person had no symptoms leading up to or the day of the conference. After consulting with the Senate’s attending physician and my personal doctor, I have been told that my risk is low, and I don’t need to take a test or quarantine. However, the health and safety of the American people is my focus and I have made the decision to self-quarantine in an abundance of caution. I am feeling healthy and not experiencing any symptoms at this time. I will still be working on my plan to combat Coronavirus and protect American families, and my offices in D.C. and throughout the state will still be fully operational to help Floridians.”

According to the Washington Post, the Brazilian official, who has been identified as Fabio Wajngarten, communications secretary to Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, also met with Sen. Marco Rubio, President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence while visiting Mar-A-Lago in Florida. The president has since said he “isn’t concerned.”

Earlier this week, a photo circulated showing Wajngarten alongside President Trump and Pence during his visit to Florida so if anything happens to the President, VP or anyone else we know who to blame. One guy could single handedly take down the entire administration had they become sick with the Coronavirus, and Wajngarten was reportedly in the United States as part of a presidential delegation to meet with U.S. officials, which apparently included Rick Scott.

The senator has since canceled a Thursday press conference, where he planned to outline plans to deal with the coronavirus outbreak. So think about that this one guy could be the man who ends up getting all of the white house, and washington sick with the “CoronaVirus.”
