NEW: From a Matt Gaetz spox: “Congressman Gaetz doesn’t seem to be named nor referenced in Mr. Greenberg’s plea. Congressman Gaetz has never had sex with a minor and has never paid for sex. Mr. Greenberg was first indicted for falsely accusing someone else of sex with a minor...”
“That person was innocent. So is Congressman Gaetz,” the spox statement continued.

Ferrechio: "No one looked at the forest through the trees with the president... It's always one sided... I didn't discard the Mueller stuff. I was much more skeptical because I knew the sourcing..."
