    Hell yeah just lay everybody’s nonsense out. It’s about time these creeps get what’s coming to them.

    Nasty ass rapists

  2. Jesus Christ! So the only thing these men do is exploit young girls! It makes my blood boil thinking about it.

  3. Now you see why Republicans don’t want poor people to have healthcare. Much easier to exploit underage girls.

  4. Matt Gaetz is lower than dogshit.

    I will not say anything else as I do not want to get banned.

    Ah, so they want to limit basic needs so they have more leverage to trade favors for…

  6. This is why the rich and powerful don’t want people to have universal healthcare or any public assistance for that matter. Exploitation is the name of their game!

    This is less an indictment of Gaetz himself (in that it’s nothing we didn’t already know) as it is an indignity* of our system that we have semi-homeless 17 year old girls who need to prostitute themselves for dental care. That part is all of our faults. Well… not *all* but you know what I mean.

    *Edit: I meant indictment and it autocorrected to indignity, but I’m going to leave that as is.

    Mar-a-Lago face

    “Mar-a-Lago face is a plastic surgery and fashion trend among American conservative and Republican individuals described as excessive or uniform plastic surgery interventions such as lip augmentation, Botox, and jaw contouring; coupled with heavy makeup, fake tans, fake eyelashes, dark smoky eyes

    Noted public figures described as having the Mar-a-Lago face include First Lady Melania Trump, **Matt Gaetz**, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Kristi Noem and Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump.

  9. This is why Trump was so desperate to appoint Gaetz as the head of DOJ. He needed someone on a short leash, with kompromat against him.

  10. Trump had access to this information, and about the other underage girls Gaetz trafficked and raped before he nominated him as head of American Justice.

    I’m glad this article highlighted the victim and how she was groomed.

    Gaetz belongs under the jail. Disgusting.

  12. The Trump presidency is so exhausting. With the non-stop news coverage of all the shit going on, I had completely forgotten that Matt Gaetz even existed.

    Seriously, it feels like the Gaetz drama was something that happened many years ago. 1 year of Trump news feels like 3 normal years, which I guess is also by design – so that any big scandals will quickly be buried.

  13. Why is this paywalled? Paywall sports news. Use some common sense as to the journalism that needs to be accessible to all.

  14. I want to emphasize that **JOE BIDEN’s DOJ** dropped this case. I appreciate so much of what Joe Biden did to recover economically from the pandemic, but this shit was indefensible. A perfect example of how Democrats are constantly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory – you were elected to hold Trump accountable and didn’t even bother. But you couldn’t even be assed to prosecute a shitty, reviled Congressman who was caught red-handed fucking underage girls – seriously, how the fuck can you be so fucking bad at your jobs?

    This was the plot of a few Sopranos episodes. Stripper needed money for braces, had to dance and prostitute herself for it.

    Okay- possibly dumb question and may be easily accessible to me , but I try not to read everything on the internet due to the sadness and despair it brings.
    Any reason why everyone uses the world pedophile, as opposed to the “correct” term that seems to correlate to the victim’s age.
    Are any of the vicitms that are involved with Epstein and Trump and everyone else that I don’t have the strength to type out, the actual age of pedophilia (I think maybe it’s prepubescent)?
    I ask this question because I wonder if that use that terminology because it’s the most used or makes people think of their age and vulnerability?
    I think that the number of men who engage with underage girls but somehow think it’s okay because they are close to legal age, appear older, or engaging in risky behaviors make it okay, is grossly underreported.
    Sorry for the tangent .

    DECLARATION IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER
    I, Jane Doe, the Plaintiff in this matter proceeding under a pseudonym, state as follows:
    1. I am a competent adult over 18 years of age able to testify as to personal knowledge. The facts
    in this declaration are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, and I am
    competent to testify to them if called upon to do so.
    2. I was subject to extreme sexual and physical abuse by the Defendants, including forcible rape,
    that took place at several parties of Defendant Epstein during the summer of 1994 in New York City at a
    residence used by Defendant Epstein. During this period, I was 13 years old.
    3. More particularly, I traveled by bus to New York City in June 1994 in the hope of starting a
    modeling career. I went to several modeling agencies but was told that I needed to put together a
    modeling portfolio before I would be considered. I then went to the Port Authority in New York City to
    start to make my way back home. There I met a woman who introduced herself to me as She
    told me about the parties and said that, if I would join her at the parties, I would be introduced to
    people who could get me into the modeling profession, also told me I would be paid for
    attending.
    4. The parties were held at a New York City residence that was being used by Defendant Jeffrey
    Epstein. Each of the parties had other minor females and a number of guests of Mr. Epstein, including
    Defendant Donald Trump at four of the parties I attended. I understood that both Mr. Trump and Mr.
    Epstein knew that I was 13 years old.
    5. Defendant Trump had sexual contact with me at four different parties in the summer of 1994.
    On the fourth and final sexual encounter with Defendant Trump, Defendant Trump tied me to a bed,
    exposed himself to me, and then proceeded to forcibly rape me. During the course of this savage sexual
    attack, I loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to stop but he did not. Defendant Trump responded to
    my pleas by violently striking me in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do
    whatever he wanted.
    6. Immediately following this rape, Defendant Trump threatened me that, were I ever to reveal
    any of the details of Defendant Trump’s sexual and physical abuse of me, my family and I would be
    physically harmed if not killed.
    7. Defendant Epstein had sexual contact with me at two of the parties that summer. On the
    second occasion involving Defendant Epstein, Defendant Epstein forced himself upon me and proceeded
    to rape me anally and vaginally despite my loud pleas to stop. Defendant Epstein then attempted to
    strike me about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at me that he, Defendant
    Epstein, should have been the one who took my virginity, not Defendant Trump, before I finally
    managed to break away from Defendant Epstein.

    8. Immediately following this rape, just like Defendant Trump, Defendant Epstein threatened me
    not to ever reveal any of the details of Defendant Epstein’s sexual and physical abuse of me or else my
    family and I would be physically harmed if not killed.
    9. Both Defendants had let me know that each was a very wealthy, powerful man and indicated
    that they had the power, ability and means to carry out their threats. Indeed, Defendant Trump stated
    that I shouldn’t ever say anything if I didn’t want to disappepr like , a 12-year-old female that was
    forced to be involved in the third incident with Defendant Trump and that I had not seen since that third
    incident, and that he was capable of having my whole family killed.
    10. The duress imposed on me by Defendants not to ever reveal any of the details of the sexual and
    physical abuse caused to me by Defendants has not terminated and the fear it has instilled in me has not
    subsided. Unfortunately, making matters worse for me, I was subjected to daily painful reminders of
    the horrific acts of Defendant Trump via mass media coverage of him starting last summer that, over a
    short period of time, became continuous and unavoidable.
    11. The duress had prevented me from starting litigation before this year. However, as soon as I
    surfaced, I received threats. More specifically, shortly after my first complaint was filed in California on
    April 26, 2016, I started receiving threatening phone calls on a cell phone I then owned. The calls were
    never for more than 20 seconds or so before they hung up and they were always from a blocked or
    unavailable phone number according to my caller ID feature. Since I changed phone numbers, the
    threatening calls have completely stopped.
    12. This litigation involves matters that are highly sensitive and of a personal nature, and I believe
    that identification of me would pose a risk of retaliatory physical harm to me and to others.
    13. I have no reason to believe that the Defendants’ threats have ever been lifted or will ever be
    lifted and so I request that the Court issue an order protecting me and my family from harm and
    harassment by the Defendants.
    I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

  18. Real question, if sex work is work, is it considered that for over 18 only? Because you can be working a PT job at 17 otherwise, except the military which is a commitment. Why does age of consent apply? I’m working these thoughts out

  19. CatsWearingTinyHats on

    I don’t understand why he hasn’t been prosecuted. Surely the victim can ID him and testify.

  20. What Gaetz did isn’t a scandal. Maybe 5 years ago or so it was scandalous. Now it’s just really small change. Not when the Constitution is in tatters, armed mobs are kidnapping Americans off the street without charges and a child molester is knocking down the White House.

    Maybe this was his plan all along? Promote Trump to President. So much heinous shit will go down that nobody even notices a small-time child trafficker any more.

  21. What happened to that ethics committee report that found “there was ‘substantial evidence’ Gaetz violated House rules, state and federal laws, ‘and other standards of conduct prohibiting prostitution, statutory rape, illicit drug use, acceptance of impermissible gifts, the provision of special favors and privileges, and obstruction of Congress'”? No further investigation or consequences after he withdrew his nomination for Attorney General?
