    1. @Cee Dee So you prefer the TRAITORS who just tried to overthrow the American Government???? Wow…how UNPATRIOTIC

    2. @Cee Dee
      Project veritas is one of the top publishers of bullsh*t rhetoric out there.
      Next you’ll be directing people to Qanon sites.

      Post the name of the original source.

    1. You realize a top CNN Director was exposed at great length on video tape saying everything about Matt Gaetz was made up because the Democrats fear his power. Yet, you still believe the media. omf you are so thick in the head.

    1. @Cee Dee Project Veritas is an American far-right activist group founded by James O’Keefe in 2010. The group produces deceptively edited videos of its undercover operations, which use secret recordings in an effort to discredit mainstream media organizations and progressive groups.

  1. In other words “I committed a crime, now please send me YOUR money so that I can hire a bunch of lawyers to try to get away with it.”

    1. @R G No way!! I’m shocked! Shocked I say. 😉😉 I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t O’Keefe himself trying to desperately drum up clicks for his website. His “Acorn scoop” was a long time ago.

    1. @Richardcheese I am not blindly accepting “truth” from anyone. Trump tried to destroy American democracy and install himself as a fascist leader. His followers were just fine with that. Look to history for a plethora of examples of this type of thing since man evolved to walk up right. None turned out well.

      Cee Dee is a Trump follower. She and her ilk will do everything they can, including lying, distraction, distortion and disinformation to destroy American democracy and install the fascist leader of their choice. That choice is an orange monster.

      Even if true, and shown in context, the words of one CNN editor will never change the truth of MAGA fascism and their intent.

      Project Veritas is no better than Qanon. They are both right wing, disinformation organizations. With the specific intent of destroying American democracy, taking power and stealing all the wealth they can.

    1. @Bam Boo Doesn’t change the fact Matt is under DOJ investigation. They are actually trying to say CNN made it up. 🤣

    2. @Cee Dee
      I call bullsh*t.
      Post the name of the “CNN director”, and we’ll look him/her up.

  2. If you donate to Gaetz then you also get exclusive photos of Gaetz’s Girls direct from his cell phone

    1. @Cee Dee so if YouTube kicked you out and you hate Democrats and anything to do with the left then why are you uses YouTube

    2. @Gregg Zillges Roger Stone pays Cee Dee a dime for each million YouTube comments. Cee Dee is well on his way to earning his first dollar.

Hope your little comment gave you some excitement tho. THUMBS UP

    3. Gaetz you pull that B S with REV All Sharpton if you are a real man try standing up to Mr Louis Farrakahan He would show you what a Small you are Gate Mouth

  3. 0:21 Gaetz mixed up the words in the ad. He meant to say: “Because they tell the truth about me, I lie about everything.”

    1. You realize a top CNN Director was exposed at great length on video tape saying everything about Matt Gaetz was made up because the Democrats fear his power. Yet, you still believe the media. omf you are so thick in the head.

    2. @Cee Dee So this is what Matt Gaetz’ money for defence goes to, paying a silly and incompetent troll like you to spread lies to distract from the truth. Man, Gaetz is REALLY getting desperate!

    3. @Cee Dee The guy from CNN was on a date, mouthing off to impress his date! He doesn’t RUN the studio, and is NOT the Executive Producer, and will probably be fired for his ridiculous comments.

  4. OMG. Those birds of a feather truly do stick together. What a pair! Roger and Matt. Sounds like a cartoon. Oh wait – it is.

    1. You realize a top CNN Director was exposed at great length on video tape saying everything about Matt Gaetz was made up because the Democrats fear his power. Yet, you still believe the media. omf you are so thick in the head.

    2. @Cee Dee You might be a bot, or you might be bought. Whatever. I just know crooks when I see them. I lived through the Nixon administration.

    3. @Clint …or a troll on Roger Stones payroll. This kind of desperate trolling is right up Stones alley.

  5. Stone: “Get a Pardon from the President!”
    Gates: “Yeah that won’t work what’s Plan B ?”
    Stone: “Plan B?”

  6. Hiring Rodger stone tells me one thing if he wants that snake to help him! He probably did most of the things they are saying and possibly worse.

  7. Stone: _”Yes it is easy to get a free card for your crimes, you just have to have kompromat on your POTUS and threaten him if he doesn’t pardon you. Easypeasy!”_

  8. That is so ridiculous! The more attention he draws to his self by wagging his tongue the more I’m believing he’s guilty. It’s like a cheating partner accusing you of cheating.
