NEW: Greenberg is asking to push his sentencing to March 2022. Given this, Gaetz’ new trial lawyer team, the straw candidate guilty plea, and the Alford indictment; it’s clear to me that Matt Gaetz is in trouble, and for a lot more than the sex trafficking a minor charge.
Gaetz’ trial lawyer team: Matty recently hired three high-powered, out-of-town trial lawyers indicating he thinks he’ll be going to trial. thedailybeast.com/what-matt-gaet…
The straw candidate pled guilty: Rodriguez, who accepted an illegal $44K contribution to run as a straw candidate in a sham election scheme in Florida recently pled guilty: right after Greeneberg extended his sentencing the first time. nbcmiami.com/news/local/gho…
Alford indictment: in which Matt Gaetz’ dad paid someone $15M to get a pardon for his son. Who pays $15M for a pardon for an innocent person? cnbc.com/2021/08/31/flo…
Finally, we reported on @dailybeanspod that a lawyer familiar with the investigation told the @thedailybeast they wouldn’t be surprised to see the Greenberg sentence delayed until the Gaetz matter is dealt with. Not sure if that was @BarbMcQuade @JillWineBanks or @TristanSnell

THREAD: If there are any LGBTQ folks that were discharged under other than honorable conditions for sexual orientation, and you're curious about what benefits you may now be entitled to under Biden's new plan, I'm here to help. Here's a small list. 1/ militarytimes.com/veterans/2021/…
If you are disabled, either physically or mentally because of something that happened to you in the military - which may include your shitty discharge - you could be eligible for monthly VA disability compensation. Here's how to get it... 2/
Contact your local veteran service organization (like the VFW). They have representatives that can help you file your claim. It can take a few months, but it's worth it. You can be awarded anywhere from $145 to $3400 per month. 3/ va.gov/disability/com…

THREAD: Content Warning: abortion, Texas, rape, and the military.

As someone with PTSD, sometimes it can take time for me to put words to emotions.

I believe I have the words now.

1/
As most of you know, I was raped while on active duty in 1995. That rape resulted in a pregnancy, which resulted in an abortion. Then AND now, we did not usually report our assaults because we are required to report to the chain of command 2/
The chain of command does not want assaults on their record. The chain of command includes your rapist. The chain of command is Chad from Florida who has no training in advocacy or law. The chain of command often retaliates against you for reporting. 3/

THREAD: I have a story for you about the media. When I was living in Los Angeles and working at the Department of Veterans Affairs, our homelessness task force successfully contacted EVERY LAST homeless veteran in the city and offered them services and housing. 1/
During that year, we halved veteran homelessness, but there were many veterans who did not want the assistance. Nonetheless, the media kept repeating the narrative that we failed because we didn’t house them all. 2/
I’ve seen several anchors on @CNN ask on Twitter how it could possibly be wrong to ask questions of leadership about Afghanistan. I 100% agree you should ask questions, but to mislead the public by insinuating we abandoned a large number of people is dangerous. 3/

Four United States Marines are dead. ISIS-K has known since trump inked a deal with the Taliban that the US was going to withdraw. To insinuate they haven’t been planning these attacks since trump surrendered without Afghanistan at the table is incredibly Naive. 1/
My heart is with my fallen shipmates, their fellow service members, and their families. And my rage is where it belongs: squarely on the former president’s narrow, cowardly shoulders. 2/
Do not let anyone gaslight you into believing trump gave a damn about the lives of our service members. He referred to us as suckers and losers - and as a purely selfish and transactional man - he was and is wholly incapable of understanding sacrifice. /END
