wait what? Isn't there still like two months before the new administration starts? Why resign now?
Because he has an ethic reports incoming. If your not a member of congress though, they can't release the report officially.
that's some Yu-Gi-Oh missing the timing level of bullshit lol
The one thing Gaetz is good at is knowing how to break the law and get away with it. He defeated the FBI probe simply by picking targets and collaborators that would be difficult to use for prosecutors. This is because prosecutors now typically rise to their position involved using the weight of the state to roll over people who didnt know how to do crime. It's all a numbers game to prosecutors so they don't have enough experience dealing with the politics of criminal court, plus the fact that anyone who understands how the system works can simply set up their crimes in a way that benefits them in open court.
The sad reality is prosecutors look for perfect victims which allows imperfect victims who are often actually more vulnerable people in society to be abused at greater rates.
Remember how Democrats can't figure out why people think that rich and connected people can get away with breaking the law? They just have to look at the failure of the Biden DOJ.
