Breaking news: Matt Gaetz's sex trafficking scandal hasn't gone away. In fact, it could blow up in a few days.
My latest @NOTUSreports with @reesejgorman:
Never-Before-Seen Details About Matt Gaetzs Alleged Sex Scandal May Soon Be Public Thanks to a Friend
One of Matt Gaetzs friends sued a number of people in the alleged sex scandal, generating a number of juicy depositions. Now those depositions could become public.
Rep. Matt Gaetz may soon face a document dump in federal court that could expose for the first time details about the alleged sex parties tied to the accusations that Gaetz had sex with an underage teen.
The trove of information which is expected to include sworn testimony from a number of people involved in the alleged sex parties is the ironic result of the congressmans friend, Florida lobbyist Chris Dorworth, dropping a civil lawsuit that sought to bury the scandal.
A federal judge will now decide whether the accounts of several key witnesses should be made public by Sept. 19, including a declaration from Gaetzs ex-girlfriend that one source familiar with the matter described as candid, as well as the never-before-seen deposition of the woman who claims she was sex-trafficked when she was 17.
In court papers submitted Friday night, defense lawyers asserted these materials would contain details from the young women who attended parties at [Dorworths] home but still mask their names. Women involved have, in the past, described themselves in interviews as victims.

(104,913 posts)2. Gaetz might end up being the one a'hole that McCarthy ends up getting some revenge toward...
Seems everyone (or nearly everyone? ) Kevin tried to primary in order to get revenge for their role in getting him dumped survived... It seems too many detest him more than his opponents. Funny how that works. Still, I'd love to see Matt exposed for what he is.

(22,527 posts)4. It would be marvelous if this information came out before the election
But Gaetzs seat is safely in Republican hands. That district is as solid red as they come. The best we could hope is that a re-elected Gaetz gets indicted, kicked out of Congress and convicted. The new representative will be a Republican but we could hope they wouldnt be an ass like Gaetz. That district isnt going to elect a Democrat.
