EXCLUSIVE: On Sept. 4, 2017, according to his confession, Joel Greenberg called Matt Gaetz with some bad news—a teen they paid to have sex with was underage. Now, two sources tell The Beast, a witness can confirm details of that call because he was there. thedailybeast.com/witness-can-co… Image
The witness is “Big Joe” Ellicott—Greenberg’s longtime best friend and an employee at the Seminole County tax office—who recently pleaded guilty to fraud and drug charges as part of a cooperation agreement with federal prosecutors. thedailybeast.com/witness-can-co…
Ellicott has so far avoided any charges regarding sex trafficking of a minor, but he was present for the call that Greenberg made to Gaetz, according to two people briefed on the matter. The call, they said, was short—and Gaetz was the one who ended it. thedailybeast.com/witness-can-co…

Is Joe Biden really just another Donald Trump in disguise?

On Fever Dreams, @swin24 and @KELLYWEILL break down this argument, RFK Jr.'s asinine Anne Frank comparison and the latest right-wing “controversy."

APPLE: apple.co/3r2tIIx
SPOTIFY: spoti.fi/32CmWzQ Image
First up, that Biden/Trump comparison. “I get the sense that there are way too many overfed, overpaid, and overcoddled...mainstream national political columnists who are paid to… not understand the difference between X and Y,” says @swin24. bit.ly/3HjZNRX
.@swin24 and @KELLYWEILL also discuss RFK Jr.’s latest word vomit, specifically about how he said Jews in the Holocaust were better off than anti-vaxxers because they could have just gone to Switzerland.

“Isn't that just the plot of The Sound of Music?” bit.ly/3HjZNRX

In late 2020, a collective of Trump’s most extreme election dead-enders, led by Sidney Powell and Michael Flynn, were loudly telling anyone who would listen about their ludicrous plot to deploy the troops, seize U.S. voting machines & keep Trump in power. thedailybeast.com/trumps-electio… Image
Now, a year later, as the investigations and lawsuits intensify, the Trumpist gang is taking a curious approach to a newly published draft of the Trump executive order outlining their brazenly authoritarian blueprint—they want nothing to do with it. thedailybeast.com/trumps-electio…
In fact, they claim, they don’t even recognize the document, even though it mirrors (almost to a T) the plans they once openly championed. “I do not recognize it and neither does General Flynn,” former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne told The Daily Beast. thedailybeast.com/trumps-electio…

According to a new ethics report released Monday, life as a congressional staffer in the office of Colorado Republican Rep. Doug Lamborn is…quite strange. thedailybeast.com/congressmans-t… Image
For starters, Rep. Doug Lamborn wants you, his office staffer, to give him Christmas presents—beer and food preferred—with a value between $125 and $200. thedailybeast.com/congressmans-t…
Also, Rep. Lamborn would like you to throw his daughter-in-law a party to celebrate her naturalization ceremony. While such a party could happen for another constituent, according to this report, the office never seems to have held one for anyone else. thedailybeast.com/congressmans-t…

Lesbian Tech. Sgt. Kristin Kingrey of the WV Air National Guard tells @TimTeeman why she is suing the U.S. Army & Air Force, claiming a male leader said she should grow her hair, wear makeup “and ultimately appear more feminine,” or suffer professionally. bit.ly/3KEeUHE
Kingrey tells @TimTeeman that after the comments were made, a job she had successfully applied for was suddenly withdrawn, and the Guard also refused to hire her for a position she was qualified for. bit.ly/3KEeUHE
It was not the first time Kingrey was targeted, she says she had long faced jibes around her sexual orientation and gender identity. “It crossed a line into harassment, and I carried on my person a copy of our regulations in regards to female hair length.” bit.ly/3KEeUHE

While Delta flight number 45 was making its way across the Atlantic from Ireland to New York City on Jan. 7, passenger Shane McInerney allegedly had a public meltdown that led him to at one point strip down to “moon” his fellow travelers. thedailybeast.com/delta-passenge…
The incident was sparked when he “repeatedly refused to wear a facemask despite being asked dozens of times” by the flight crew, according to a criminal complaint. thedailybeast.com/delta-passenge…
In addition to endangering himself and others by going maskless, McInerney “threw an empty beverage can" that hit a passenger and “kicked the back of the passenger seat in front of him," the filing says. thedailybeast.com/delta-passenge…
