yeah I mean it’s genuinely sad that the “reasonable old school” Republican (who Dems eagerly and unanimously voted to confirm) is out here doing pressers blatantly geeked out on coke and it’s not subtle at all

A report came out showing Matt Gaetz paid an underage, homeless girl for sex so she could buy braces.
He was originally nominated as AG by Trump, who knew this story.

Garland declined to press charges and look at where he is now. Matt has his own TV show and is a member of the Pentagon Press Corp.

As long as we keep looking away while rich men commit sex crimes against children, they will never stop.

This is what's called a tell

[P a u l ◉ @SkylineReport]

This case isn’t “troubling.” It’s a screaming indictment of an administration that’s decided due process is optional and human beings are collateral.

A Ukrainian war refugee who entered legally, kept continuous lawful status, married a U.S. citizen, filed every form on time, passed every background check, and voluntarily walked into a government building for her scheduled green-card interview gets disappeared into ICE detention like we’re running a damn secret-police cosplay. And the excuse? “Her status was expired.” Spare me. A timely TPS renewal keeps her in lawful status, every immigration lawyer knows it, and USCIS sure as hell knew it when they scheduled the interview.

This isn’t enforcement. It’s entrapment dressed up as bureaucracy. It punishes the exact behavior the system claims to want: compliance, honesty, paperwork, trust. If you can follow every rule and still get dragged off while sitting next to your husband and attorney, then the “legal immigration system” is just a baited mousetrap with a flag on top.

And let’s talk about ICE vanishing her from the detainee locator for days. No charges. No Notice to Appear. No confirmation of where she even was. That’s not just unconstitutional. That’s the kind of authoritarian nonsense we point at other countries for doing while pretending we’re morally superior.

A cancer survivor husband. Five terrified kids. A refugee who survived Russian bombs only to get snatched up by the American government for the crime of… showing up to her appointment.

This is the administration’s priority: inflate deportation stats by targeting the safest, most compliant people in the system. Because real criminals require work, and this regime wants headlines, not justice.

If this is their idea of “rule of law,” then the law isn’t the rule anymore. It’s a weapon.

@flowersslop @chase_fkc @USA_Polling Oh, I see you don’t know even the tiniest bit about sexual assault. Yes, mothers often disbelieve their daughters and protect the abusive man.

[P a u l ◉ @SkylineReport]

A teen charged with ten rape-related felonies, including strangling a girl unconscious on video, walked out with zero prison time, no sex-offender registration, and a clean slate by nineteen. That’s not justice. That’s state-sanctioned protection of a predator.

Victims were never told prosecutors were cutting a deal. Oklahoma law requires it. They ignored it. A judge with deep OSU ties handed Butler the golden ticket. Prosecutors folded like wet cardboard.
