GREAT article Daniel... I believe you said what I and millions of others have been thinking! I was truly happy that President Trump had picked him for AG... And now, I'm upset at Gaetz backing out. Just yesterday, I had posted this from Elon Musk, and it says exactly what we need at the DOJ!
"Matt Gaetz has 3 critical assets that are needed for the AG role: a big brain, a spine of steel, and an axe to grind.
He is the Judge Dredd America needs to clean up a corrupt system and put powerful bad actors in prison.
Gaetz will be our Hammer of Justice." ... oh well.....
With a sadness that’s difficult to explain, one of my Horsemen has taken one for the team. It would have been great, great fun with Matt as Attorney General. There goes the farm. Oh well, someone once said you can't take it with you. Guess my dream has exploded. However, consolation may be DeSantis appoints him Senator to serve out Rubio's term. Then we will have the proverbial Bull in the China Shop. Godspeed, Matt Gaetz. Jupplandia explains it eloquently in detail-He’s spot on-The Gaetz Reversal: Still Losing When You Win is the Nature of a Rigged Game The Republican Swamp is still the oil in the gears of the Democrat Machine.

Truth be told, Daniel. The next mandate of the American people had better be ridding the Republican Party of the Deep State Swamp Creatures. These are more detestable to me than those on the other side.
Hi Dan, I followed Sundance on the Trayvon Martin hoax from the start, read Jack Cashill’s excellent “If I had a Son” and saw Joel Gilbert’s documentary exposing the fake girlfriend witness - wow! but I’d forgotten Bondi’s role. So for a while yesterday I was elated. Bondi otherwise always seemed so solid.
Now, what? Sundance is wrong about her knowledge? Like you say, it doesn’t change her complicity in positioning the state apparatus to attack and sacrifice an innocent man.
Normally I can end a comment like this with “hopefully” something or other. Not sure how that goes this time.
I’ve followed him on a couple of issues and always found him pretty good. You’ve obviously done a deeper dive on this one than me, but we are in the same position. I’d like Sundance to be wrong and Bondi to be good….but……😔
On the bright side, Marco Rubio, the RINO, would be gone from the Senate. DeSantis could appoint the far more reliable Gaetz to fill the seat left by Rubio.
Hmmmm I followed that case very closely. I have never heard a thing about Pam Bondi’s involvement and the idea she would collude with race baiter Benjamin Crump makes no sense.
Matt Gaetz made a lot of enemies. When he was nominated I thought he will never get through. Not because of some stupid supposed sexual escapade but because of how he wasted a huge amount of time, money and political capital in his quest to have one vote control of the House Speakership. He appeared to be an egotistical grandstander and not concerned about the House that teetered on the edge of going over to the Dems thanks to his idiotic antics.
I will be curious about how Bondi will fare in the hearings. If this story is true it will come out. I’m skeptical though given my careful attention to that case when it occurred
I think you probably express exactly how most Republican Senators view him, and I also think that’s the problem with most Republican Senators. It wasn’t a ridiculous quest at all. It was a determination for Republican Senators and the Senate as a whole to be actually accountable, coming after Republican Senators and the Majority or Minority Leader of Republicans in the Senate and Republican Speakers repeatedly and consistently helped the Democrats do things the Republicans should have tried to block. If Republican Speakers actually did an effective job in the first place Gaetz would never have HAD to oppose them. He like many ordinary voters was disgusted by their corrupt assistance to the Democrats.
So the whole starting premise is the wrong way round. You shouldn’t consider the person insisting that Republicans be better at doing what their voters want the ‘trouble maker’. What causes the trouble is the crookedness, dishonesty, disloyalty, constant betrayal and comfortable smug stupidity of Senators who refuse to do what their party leader or their party voters want from them. It is THEIR ego that is the problem.
Re Bondi, it’s possible the Sundance account is wrong. I can hardly accept a claim automatically given the gist of my argument about sexual smears. BUT, I can’t see a motive for Sundance to lie-he already has a big audience and this is not going to be a popular line. Secondly, he’s been pretty good and accurate in most of his assessments that I’ve seen previously.
As I say in the article, I hope he’s wrong. But the whole ‘you need to coddle and conciliate the RINO wing’ approach is wrong too. What they need is breaking, breaking so thoroughly that they won’t dare to be blocks on what’s needed ever again. They loathe MAGA, Trump and the right policies. You won’t get their love. So you need their fear-personal fear that exceeds their loyalty to the Swamp and their fear of paymasters and interests they serve rather than Republican voters. The election result was the perfect platform for taking on and winning that internal fight.
Oh heavens you have certainly misunderstood my position on Gaetz, RINOs and their ineffectiveness. Like Donald Trump I want what works. The Republicans had a tiny majority of one branch of government. They may have wanted to get some things done but had no power. I think Gaetz wasted a lot of time and trying to confirm him would have been a waste of it. So let’s move on.
BTW while I DETEST Mitch McConnell and wish he would go away I will be forever grateful that he prevented Merrick Garland from being considered for SCOTUS.
I have never heard of Sundance but if he has real evidence that Pam Bondi should not be confirmed I am sure it will be revealed. One need not have a reason to print inaccurate information. Sometimes sources are not credible.
It's all theater of a rigged game by a criminal terrorist organization. Charlie Kirk was also a Bohemian Grove participant, along with James Okeefe and Jim Jordan. I'm for being left alone and not paying any orks a fee to live freely.
There are certainly some among even the alternative media or alleged rebels who are owned, and may be owned due to pervert crimes, but I tend to think far fewer than among the ‘respectable’ crowd. When you have pedo networks smearing innocent opponents as pedos, and you have down the rabbit hole types who will basically believe it of anyone, the siruation gets confused. Certainly reducing the size of a corrupt State is the best route to limiting the power of any of them.
I’ve seen that the NYT and MSNBC are claiming that Gaetz paid women for sex and a a chart proves it. Even if true, that’s not the same as underage sex or being a rapist or a pervert. I don’t really care if a guy sleeps with hookers or porn stars, so long as they aren’t supplied by a foreign government or the CIA and they aren’t forced or children. If a guy sees a prostitute outside those circumstances, I really don’t care in the least.

I’d like to think it’s not a mistake from Trump, but it really does look like one.

Thanks for restacking on your page. 😀😀
It's very frustrating.
It is. I don’t want mild and doing deals. I want a shock and awe approach to the Swamp. I want them forced into line.
Truth be told, Daniel. The next mandate of the American people had better be ridding the Republican Party of the Deep State Swamp Creatures. These are more detestable to me than those on the other side.
I completely agree. I think the mandate is there already, this is what most Republican voters want.

Brilliant (as usual)
Unfortunately, it’s a great article once again. Who can drain the swamp of politics?
My grandmother taught me at a very young age never trust lawyers, Judges or most of all politicians.
They twist everything to suit themselves.
Hmmmm I followed that case very closely. I have never heard a thing about Pam Bondi’s involvement and the idea she would collude with race baiter Benjamin Crump makes no sense.

Have you seen the Venmo chart?
