DOJ investigation into #GaetzGate and Joel Greenberg is focusing on their involvement with multiple women who were recruited online for sex and received cash payments.
One of the women who had sex with both also agreed to have sex with an unidentified associate in FL GOP politics
The inquiry is also examining whether Gaetz had sex with 17 yo and whether she received anything of value. The sex trafficking count Greenberg involved the same girl
The authorities have also investigated whether other men connected to Gaetz and Greenberg had sex with the 17-year-old
receipts from Cash App, a mobile payments app, and Apple Pay that show payments from Mr. Gaetz and Mr. Greenberg to one of the women, and a payment from Mr. Greenberg to a second woman. The women told their friends that the payments were for sex with the two men
Some of the men and women took ecstasy, an illegal mood-alerting drug, before having sex, including Gaetz
In some cases Gaetz asked women to help find others who might be interested in having sex with him and his friends
Gee @mattgaetz did you take lessons from Jeffrey Epstein?
The F.B.I. has questioned multiple women involved in the encounters, including as recently as January, to establish details of their relationships with Gaetz and his friends
So @mattgaetz should we add GOP pimp to your LinkedIn profile now?

🚨"We’ve created a persuasion machine that allows conservatives to reach, engage and move people to action like never before. Now is the time to expand and capitalize on this machine, setting the political playing field in advance of the 2022 election.” washingtonpost.com/politics/repub…
Titled “Reclaiming the Public Narrative,” the solicitation argues that the left, because of its clout within cultural institutions, has more access to centrist voters while the right is stuck “within its own echo chamber.”
It says the group will collect personal data gathered from petitions and other online tools to target voters using “language consumed by those in the persuadable middle.”
Why does this matter? Because states have different ages to buy a pistol vs a long run
Two key components that help define what a rifle is, the barrel and the stock, have been altered by firearm manufacturers to circumvent existing gun laws
Easier to hide but use the same ammunition and magazines as their AR-15-style rifle counterparts. That ammunition travels much faster and with more energy compared with common pistol rounds like the 9mm and are known to create more serious wounds
WHY DO YOU NEED THIS?
National Firearms Act regs rifles w barrels shorter than 16" more because their potential concealment is a danger
Buying a short-barrel rifle requires a lengthy background check. But AR-15-style pistols aren’t defined as short-barrel rifles
But he couldn’t delete his coworkers’ memories of the time he showed up at work LARPing as a Nazi. Ditto for his habit of asking all new hires if they were Jewish.
33 of his coworkers told the FBI under oath that he was a virulently anti-semitic white supremacist who promised to leave his job “in a blaze of glory.” And while it’s not illegal to be a bigot, it probably won’t help bolster the claim that fomenting a race war and overthrowing
the federal government was the farthest thing from Hale-Cusinelli’s mind as he directed a stream of protestors around the Capitol.

Again AZ: Eliminating mail return altogether for absentee
What about the military? What if you work overseas? what exactly do they think absentee voting is for?
A bill passed in the Georgia state Senate this week, for instance, would prevent 5 million of Georgia’s 7.7 million registered voters who can currently cast absentee ballots from doing so, even by the GOP’s own math.
Chao’s father isn’t just some random guy, and his awards aren’t the sort you get from the local Kiwanis club. He founded Foremost Group that ships goods globally and maintains significant relationships with both Chinese gov officials and biz elites
No, Chao doesn’t work for the business, but her fortune — estimated net worth $20 million — comes from family gifts.
In 2018, Politico flagged Chao for sitting in on interviews between her father and the Chinese press, including one that looked to many like it took place at the Transportation Department headquarters in Washington.
a website leak from the American Patriots Three Percent shows the anti-government militia group have recruited a network across the United States that includes current and former military members, police and border patrol agents.

But the leak also demonstrates how the radical group has recruited from a broad swath of Americans, not just military and LE. Members include both men and women, of ages ranging from 20s to 70s, doing jobs from medical physics to dental hygiene and living in all parts of the US
Experts say the revelations of the broad scope of the movement’s membership shows the mainstreaming of the radical politics of militia and so-called “Patriot Movement” groups during the Trump era and beyond.
