Gaetz and Rudy outspoken critics of Hunter - Joe’s 52 yr old boy.
Yes, the fraud/extortion scheme is simply deranged.
Personally, I’m becoming more of the mind that there isn’t any ‘there, there’ with respect to Gaetz’s behavior with a minor child. Why do I say that? Because as a factual matter, that would be pretty simple and straightforward to prove. It wouldn’t take the FBI 6-months to indict him if he really had been banging a 17-year old.
Instead, what I think is probably more likely is this has more to do with Gaetz’s relationship with the Florida Tax Commissioner who is in ALL kinds of criminal peril and already facing a number of federal indictments including one on child sex trafficking.
You never know. Look at what the FBI did with the allegations about Epstein. I doubt this story about Rep. Gaetz, but I don't doubt the corruption and incompetence that seems rife in the FBI today.
In a case with this high of a profile, the DOJ/FBI would make sure that they have an airtight case before bringing charges. Gaetz just better hope he didn’t do anything on camera.
