is in prison already for falsely allegating that somebody paid to have sex with her.

So that's why Gaetz, who was loathed by the Biden Administration, was not charged for all the stuff the media outlets have been pushing for the past week.

In America, the system requires a tiny thing called "evidence"...

Yes, dummy, and the report didn't find Gaetz liable for that one, did they.

Now, what about all the other findings in the report, johnny? You seem to have inexplicably overlooked a few of them. :/

Those are mere rumors, not findings.

Was Gaetz a choir boy in his youth? Probably not, but even a wonderful person such as the fabulous Forbes has not lived a totally pure life.

For example, Mr Forbes sipped on a non-alcoholic beer about 20 years ago.

3. Representative Gaetz’s Interactions with the Minor He Met Through Mr. Greenberg

Numerous witnesses told the Committee that, on July 15, 2017, Representative Gaetz attended a party at Mr. Dorworth’s home. 93 This party was also attended by Mr. Greenberg, Representative Gaetz’s then-girlfriend, and several others, including Victim A, who was 17 years old at the time. The record overwhelmingly suggests that Representative Gaetz had sex with
multiple women at the party, including the then-17-year-old, for which they were paid.94

"Those are mere rumors, not findings."-johnfibs

Section "V." of the "Report of the Committee on Ethics" calls you a liar, johnny. They are in fact "Findings" and not mere rumors.

"V. FINDINGS
A. The Committee Found Representative Gaetz Violated State Laws Related to Sexual
Misconduct

2. The Committee Found that Representative Gaetz Engaged in Commercial Sex

3. The Committee Found that Representative Gaetz Violated Florida’s Statutory
Rape Law

B. The Committee Found Representative Gaetz Used Illegal Drugs

C. The Committee Found that Representative Gaetz Violated the House Gift Rule

D. The Committee Found Representative Gaetz Dispensed Special Privileges and Favors
to Individuals with Whom He Had a Personal Relationship

E. The Committee Found Representative Gaetz Sought to Obstruct Its Investigation of
His Conduct"

johnforbes' second grade teacher is rolling over in her grave, ashamed that johnforbes left her class unable to read and ignorant of the meaning of the word "found" despite what both Dick and Jane told him.

"Run, johnforbes, run."

Oh please, he engaged in "commercial sex"?

Look, that means he had sex while a commercial was running on TV.

Everybody has done that, and it is NOT a violation of any ethical code.

Actually, given the critters who have inhabited the House and Senate over the past century or so, what would be?

Once again johnforbes tries to weasel out of his clearly demonstrated ignorance by cracking a humorless joke.

But he failed to even attempt to refute the fact that the findings against Gaetz are not mere rumors but are in fact "findings".

And you continue to support such clearly vile people? (You know, Republicans)

Oh, please, indeed. Tell us how you can live with being such a pathetic intellectual pussy, johnny.

Oh, please, now Clowntoker is pretending to be a church matron in Topeka in 1955.

The laptop was overflowing with sleaze, and by way of contrast Gaetz is a choir boy...

What "laptop", dimwit? We are talking about the unanimous FINDINGS of the Committee on Ethics by both Republicans and Democrats.

Why you would call a Republican Representative a "laptop overflowing with sleaze" is baffling....unless you are referring to the way Republicans often sit on men's laps and are frequently overflowing with sleaze. THAT I might agree with. But I won't believe Gaetz is a choir boy compared to MOST Republican Representatives.

That said, Gaetz IS right down there with George Santos and his ilk.

Hunter's laptop, the one overflowing with sleaze.

We're talking about Gaetz and his crimes, dimwit. Look at the title of your own thread fer cripes sake. Hunter has nothing to do with witnesses against Gaetz, nor with the Findings against Gaetz in the report from the Committee on Ethics. So why bring him up? No one (not even you) had brought him up until you crammed that silly non sequitur into the discussion.

Besides, Hunter faced the music and was tried and convicted. You're trying to pretend that Gaetz SHOULDN'T face his crimes because Hunter did. :/ That's idiotic. And don't say "But--but--Hunter was pardoned!" Gaetz would have been pardoned by Trump after he was convicted as well. For some reason you don't want Gaetz held responsible for his crimes. The only reason I can think of for that purely partisan stance is that he is a Trump supporter, which is a really stupid reason to let someone off scot-free. At least show some respect for the five Honorable Republicans on the Committee.

Please try to resist your pathological urges to divert and deflect every time you make a fool of yourself, johnny.

Pursuant to the suggestion, Mr Forbes did take a moment out of his busy schedule to look back at the thread title, and he must thank the person who started it.

The accuser is in prison already for falsely allegating that somebody paid to have sex with her.

So that's why Gaetz, who was loathed by the Biden Administration, was not charged for all the stuff the media outlets have been pushing for the past week.

"So that's why Gaetz... was not charged for all the stuff the media outlets have been pushing for the past week."-johnfoibles

johnforbes again demonstrates that he has the intellect of a child, believing that Gaetz was not yet charged with any crimes simply because a single witness out of many is supposedly in jail for lying. (Try to find evidence of this partisan claim and you won't have any luck finding it, not even on FOXnews.)

This childish comment proves johnforbes has never been to law school. But despite johnforbes' irrational defense of Gaetz in the face of all the evidence against him, would johnforbes ever leave Gaetz alone with johnny's own daughter? Of course he wouldn't. One would hope that even johnforbes isn't that big of a pussy. (However, I could be wrong about that.)

Geezus, yet another corrupt Trump Republican that johnforbes will no doubt be here irrationally defending in the future:

"Ethics office suggests full-scale House Ethics investigation into Rep. Andy Ogles

An independent federal agency recommends the House Ethics Committee open a full-scale investigation into U.S. Rep. Andy Ogles over discrepancies on his campaign finance disclosures. Ogles refused to cooperate with the federal review of his finances, according to a new report.

The latest: The Office of Congressional Ethics released its report this week, recommending a full Ethics Committee investigation.

The OCE report concluded there is "substantial reason to believe that Rep. Ogles omitted or misrepresented required information" on his financial disclosures.
The report also found there is "substantial reason to believe that Rep. Ogles's campaign committee may have accepted excessive contributions that were reported as personal loans and contributions from the candidate.""-Axios

johnforbes drops to his knees and dutifully services another Trump Republican in 5-4-3-2....

"The accuser is in prison..."-johnfibs

There is not just one accuser, dimwit. At most you could say "AN accuser..."

Of course, there are MANY accusers, and the Committee found them to be credible. Thus, their multiple FINDINGS against Gaetz.

But currently there is no evidence that ANY Gaetz accuser is in prison for lying. You made it up.

You really need to stop getting your 'news' from partisan internet gossip sites, johnny.

There have been many who have rightly accused Clowntoker of having less brainpower than some inanimate objects.

For example, there are fence posts you can have a debate with.

Perhaps not the Oxford Union, but the typical fence post mounts better arguments than Clontoker.

You know johnforbes is profoundly stupid and pathetic when he was unable to muster even a single argument to refute someone he considers to be dumber than a fence post.

So how impotently stupid does that make johnforbes?

Pretty darn stupid, by his own admission.
