[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

No one should be able to resign from Congress to hide serious misconduct from the public.

And certainly not someone under consideration for Attorney General.

The House ethics report on Matt Gaetz must be turned over to the Senate.

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

BREAKING: Elon Musk has SECRET MEETING with Iran's ambassador to the UN to discuss US-Iran relations.

The Logan Act prohibits private citizens from engaging in foreign policy undercutting the US govt.

Musk is NOT a govt official. If reports are true, this was a FEDERAL FELONY.

[Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal]

I’ll demand release of investigative findings & conclusions concerning Matt Gaetz from the House Ethics Committee. I hope Republican Judiciary Committee members will join me in seeking this highly serious, significant information.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Someone on the House ethics committee should leak the Gaetz sex trafficking report 👀

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

So to enable Matt Gaetz to avoid a damning House Ethics Committee report outlining Gaetz’s illegal behavior, Trump just made Gaetz the top law enforcement officer in the country.

The DC swamp in action.

[Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera]

Matt Gaetz is a douche. So bad for Attorney General. Gross.

[Ana Navarro-Cárdenas @ananavarro]

Dear @JoeBiden, pardon Hunter before these clowns go after him to take revenge on you.

And while you’re at it, give pre-emptive pardons to Liz Cheney, Kamala Harris, Adam Kinzinger, Jack Smith…and anybody else who may be on the enemies list of the promised retribution.

[Arieh Kovler @ariehkovler]

Remember now? This is how it felt every day for FOUR YEARS. Every fucking day never knowing if he was going to buy Greenland, sell Alaska to Putin, invite Kim Jong Un to party or fire the FBI director and appoint some guy he saw on TV. That feeling? Get used to it again.

[Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES]

The Trump Cabinet is a freak show. No words can properly describe this toxic menagerie of unfitness. Senate Democrats, plus Collins, Murkowski and at least two more GOP members, have a moral responsibility to reject Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth.

[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.

[Stuart Stevens @stuartpstevens]

A guy who funneled thousands of dollars to teenage prostitutes through Venmo is Trump's pick for AG.

I wrote in "It Was All A Lie" that for so many Trump-supporting white evangelicals, it was about their prejudices and fears, not faith. They supported a man who was found liable for sexual assault for president, and now they get Matt Gaetz.

[Stuart Stevens @stuartpstevens]

If only Jeffry Epstein were still alive, he could be in Trump's Cabinet.

[NYTPitchbot @DougJBalloon]

Analysis | Trump’s top priority in an attorney general is shielding himself from criminal prosecution. He should choose Merrick Garland.

[Stuart Stevens @stuartpstevens]

A prediction: assuming we get through this period as a functioning democracy, there will be the first treason trials in America since 1949.

Trump is giving functional foreign agents access to America’s security.

[David Frum @davidfrum]

Why not cut out the middlewoman and just name Putin as director of national intelligence?

[Julia Ioffe @juliaioffe]

Dems are like, “we take institutions seriously so we’ll nominate Merrick Garland who will be meticulous and slow so no one will ever suspect him of political bias” and GOP is like “LOL MATT GAETZ AS AG”

[AshleyStevens @The_Acumen]

The trend of politicians reporting things to us like they’re journalists and not politicians with power to do anything about it needs to end. I mean Joe Biden is president right now, go talk to your boss and ask him what he plans on doing about it. You’re a senator, do something!

[Trump Lie Tracker (Commentary Account) @MAGALieTracker]

BREAKING: Newly unearthed footage shows Fox News host and Trump’s pick for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth hyping up Trump’s infamous rally the morning of January 6, 2021. Totally unfit for office. Retweet so all Americans see this.

[David Frum @davidfrum]

In 2019, Trump tried to blackmail Ukraine's Zelenskyy to produce dirt on the Biden family.

Zelenskyy courageously refused.

Trump was rightly impeached for this abuse of office.

Trump's actions now are motivated by revenge for past defiance. There's no grand "strategy."
