President-elect Trump wants any GOP Senator in the leadership to commit to support his recess appointments—but to deny them to Democrats before his inauguration.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Sen Mullin on Gaetz: “When he was accused of sleeping with an underage girl, there’s a reason why no one in the conference defended him. We all saw videos he was showing us on the House floor of girls he slept with & brag how he would crush ED medicine so he could go all night.”

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

Matt Gaetz.

We're going to hear a lot more about his connections to the teenage sex ring (Venmo, Joel G, etc.), "The Game" in Tallahassee, the dead guy in the dorm room, the DUIs...it's going to be a long, long confirmation.

[S.V. Dáte @svdate]

Unbelievable.

"Few are even aware that Trump launched more drone strikes in his first two years in office than Obama, dubbed “the drone president”, did across eight years in office." - from my latest for The Guardian

KJP responds to a question about if Biden apologized to Trump during their meeting today for calling him a threat to democracy: "What he says still stands. And it's not just him. You heard this from former [Trump] staffers."

[Kyle Cheney @kyledcheney]

Gaetz actually suggested Trump should appoint him attorney general back in 2020, a few days before Bill Barr resigned: https://t.co/P4gN8urAwZ

[Kyle Cheney @kyledcheney]

Recalling that time the Ethics Committee probed Matt Gaetz for appearing to threaten Michael Cohen on the eve of his congressional testimony. https://t.co/sKsdMMzkC0

@El_Lefty12 @DogCatWI Capitol Police didn't wave anyone in. But you knew that already. That's another conspiracy theory.

Absolutely heartbreaking! I’m ashamed and disgusted that the people in our government/legal system didn’t hold Trump accountable for the January 6th Insurrection.

I’m heartbroken for the police who were beaten (one died and four committed suicide) and are basically forgotten. I’m heartbroken that the @TheJan6Plaque still hasn’t been installed in congress.

I’m heartbroken for our children who will never understand how a man who incited an insurrection because he couldn’t accept his loss is once again living in the White House.

I’ll be further heartbroken if the January 6th rioters are pardoned in any way.

The only reason that Matt Gates was interested in the job was that he thought “recess appointment” meant something very different.

[Meredith Lee Hill @meredithllee]

Simpson noted House Ethics is still probing Gaetz too

[Meredith Lee Hill @meredithllee]

Rep Mike Simpson, a senior GOP appropriator, asked if Matt Gaetz has the experience and character to be attorney general:

“Are you shittin me, that you just asked that question? No! But hell, you’ll print that and now I’m going to be investigated.”

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

A little late bit I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget

[Brian J. Karem @BrianKarem]

Seriously. Who talked Trump out of nominating Hannibal Lecter for AG?

[Ezra Klein @ezraklein]

Demanding Senate Republicans back Gaetz as attorney general and Hegseth as Defense Secretary is the 2024 version of forcing Sean Spicer to say it was the largest inauguration crowd ever.

These aren't just appointments. They're loyalty tests. The absurdity is the point.
