News broke on Wednesday that controversial Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) has yet another scandal to deal with after the Florida Republican’s ex-girlfriend testified on Wednesday before a federal grand jury that’s investigating him for sex crimes in what is perceived as a “major development that suggests the Department of Justice may be moving closer to indicting him.”
Meidas Touch, a liberal PAC, tweeted out some info about the Gaetz case, saying that an attorney with knowledge of the probe claims that it’s a “slam dunk.”
After the latest revelations about the DOJ investigation into Matt Gaetz, an attorney with knowledge of the case tells us the case is a “slam dunk” and that it’s not a matter of if, but when Gaetz will be indicted.

So, that’s huge news if it’s accurate. Gaetz’s unnamed ex-girlfriend, a former Capitol staffer, has been in talks for months with prosecutors about an immunity deal. Meaning, she would avoid prosecution for obstruction of justice in return for testifying in the investigation into whether Gaetz in 2017 had sex with a 17-year-old female for money and whether months later he and others violated a federal law prohibiting people from paying for prostitutes overseas.
To make matters worse for the self-described conservative firebrand, Gaetz’s former wingman, former Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg, was charged with a host of crimes and has been cooperating with investigators. Interestingly, Gaetz was recently married; however, that likely won’t shield his wife from testifying since his potential crimes occurred before they tied the knot.
All of this sounds like a poorly scripted soap opera. And I’m wondering where the QAnon folks are that were so sure that Democrats are part of a Satanist pedophilia ring that former President Donald Trump is working on to bring the leftist evildoers to justice. So, if their cult-like group is all about saving the children, then where are they with Gaetz’s sex-trafficking scandal?
