Joel Greenberg, a central figure in the ongoing investigation into Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, is likely to strike a plea deal with federal prosecutors, his attorney and prosecutors said in court Thursday, potentially putting additional legal pressure on the congressman.

@Don Nwzad and…that’s why you’re here……..right?
πππ
@Don Nwzad Trumpβs impeachment trials were political procedures where his own party members had the power to give him a pass despite his guilt, a guilt that Republican senators BOTH TIMES admitted Trump was guilty on the record as they simultaneously voted to acquit because they could because it was a political procedure performed by the legislative branch in Congress. It was not a judicial procedure performed by the judicial branch in courts where judicial judges and judicial juries must adjudicate according to the facts, if not there is a mistrial or the judgment is vacated because it was arrived at without regards to the facts.
If what happened in Trumpβs two impeachment trials had happened in a judicial trial, the trials would have been aborted and the juries discharged and the judgment vacated. Also, some jury members would have been charged (juror Lindsay Graham during the first trial for stating he will not be an impartial juror, and juror McConnell during the second trial for assisting and coordinating with the defence team) for obstruction of justice, perverting the course of justice, and contempt of court, and thus would be facing criminal charges themselves.
The judicial systemβs trial has rules and procedures that cannot be escaped. The political systemβs βtrialβ is allowed to make its own rules up and throw rules out.
But back to Gaetz. Gaetz will be facing the judicial system. I believe the alleged facts with Gaetz are that a child or children under the age of 18 were flown to him from state to state and also abroad where Gaetz then had s3. xu@1 relations with them.
Even if the children were technically above the age of consent in the destination jurisdiction, that is a mute point because if they were flown there across state or international borders, those age of consent laws become irrelevant. Theyβre voided.
And so far, that 17 year old, which is the one we know of so far, remains a child for the purposes of trafficking legislation.
Then thereβs the fact of payment, meaning prostitution.
Prostitution by itself is a crime across the overwhelming majority of the USA, no matter the age. Engaging in it is unlawful.
And when it comes to minors under the age of 18, the age of consent again become irrelevant because anyone under 18 is a child for prosecution purposes of the person paying or procuring a person under 18, because age of consent is not relevant to prostitution prosecutions.
As soon as the person is under 18 and thereβs payment, thatβs paying a minor for it.
The age of consent laws are not applicable to prostitution because you canβt legally pay someone for prostitution in the first place, and if theyβre a child under 18 being paid then the age of consent is inapplicable for one simple reason: Paying someone under 18 for prostitution voids any age of consent which might state 17 or 16 years of age, because the ages of consent are not to consent to prostitution. Theyβre to consent to lawful s3. x. Thatβs how Gaetz might come undone, assuming thereβs not also children fully under the age of consent with or without prostitution.
And all this is what the investigation at the DOJ is sorting out. And remember, it was started under Bill Barr during the Trump administration. And Barr didnβt stop it even on partisan considerations.
Good one!
@Don Nwzad You clearly haven’t even read the Mueller Report, or you wouldn’t be mentioning it. It resulted in 34 convictions of trump’s cronies. Even heavily redacted, it is scathing towards the trump administration’s interractions with Russia. Over 200 pages devoted to describing βnumerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign.β It also found that trump obstructed justice. Mueller found at least four acts by trump in which all elements of the obstruction statute were satisfied β attempting to fire Mueller, directing White House counsel Don McGahn to lie and create a false document about efforts to fire Mueller, attempting to limit the investigation to future elections and attempting to prevent Manafort from cooperating with the government. As Mueller stated, βwhile this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also DOES NOT EXONERATE him.β trump couldn’t be further investigated at the time as he was president, but those investigations have been revived since he lost. Your messiah is going down.
If something happens to gaetz’s lil buddy, they’ll blame in on the Clintons.
B B BU BUT HILLARYYY! π«
@Lar M Iβm ok with the Clintons
@Lar M yup. fine.
@Lar M Last president to leave office with a budget surplus. Yeah, I was happy w/ that. Also was instrumental in authorizing bombing in Serbia, heading off Europe’s 3rd war in the 20th century. Yes, I’m good with that also… but you would not know A N Y of that, would you?
@Dan Strayer Only president post WW2.
Uh-oh… lots of GOP members are feeling a bit uncomfortable at this moment. They’re trying to remember if they asked the young lady’s age before they bought her a plane ticket to come visit.
GOP rep: Oh Lord God almighty, I come to you on vended knees knowing that I am mere wretched mortal. I admit I am a sinner . Please please God donβt let me be implicated in this thing. Please God let it go away please. Please let the investigation go another route, please donβt let my name be mentioned. I am very sorry oh Lord. Please rescue me this time, and I promise I will never do it again. Please father have mercy and hide my secrets. I swear I wonβt do it again.

@Don Nwzad he is a troll just posts the same comment on all the threads, no doubt a bot.
VERY FEW people stay loyal when facing heavy time in prison… Gaetz is in TROUBLE
@David Galehouse- the problem is that you don’t know me or anyone you are trying to hate.
@Scott Harrison I know enough about you to know I don’t want to know any more about you. π€·ββοΈ
@CORONAPHOBIA is the real PANDEMIC! Oh I see. Like 30,000 lies from Trump, covid is bullshit, build the wall, Mexico will pay……those kinds of lies?
@CORONAPHOBIA is the real PANDEMIC! So you think Greenburg’s lawyer is lying too? Or CNN is lying that Greenburg is in trouble? Not sure how you think CNN is lying about this story? Sorry but it’s a fact Greenburg, if convicted is facing serious jail time. Matt Gaetz should be shitting himself right now.
@jeff cook true. He’s a victim, really.
Well birds of a feather always flock together, And when one gets caught, He rats the other one’s totally out ! π€
I Cannot wait to See Chinese News Network CNN fail once again ! Folks Remember β Russia collusion β the Lightweight Robert Mueller REPORT was such a big blow to CNN Fake narrative!! π€―
@Don Nwzad no, but I do remember the big lie.also I hope you are one of dumpies money fools. He loves his supporters or I mean money.
@Don Nwzad Dude.. copy-pasting your comments is just embarrassing.. try something new

@CORONAPHOBIA is the real PANDEMIC! you have to admit that this is wildly entertaining. Maybe if Matt Geatz wasnβt such an a-hole, it wouldnβt be so enjoyable.
No wonder Matt gaetz was hating on dr Seuss so much- he reads that to his girlfriend π¬
@Mintee some people never learn. He’s obviously low on the intelligence scale.

Has any right wing conservative republican scumbag ever been properly punished ? I’ll believe it when i see it.
Ur so right they get away with so much its disgusting things need to change now
It’s amazing how they show remorse when they get caught !π
Their really going to be remorseful when a unfriendly sausage corners them in a cell, and they have nowhere to run. Sorta like that 17 yr old girl felt in another state and no where to run. π
I’M SO SORRY,( I GOT CAUGHT) , I WILL NEVER do it again the same way
@Lar M Denial is so addicting.
@Lar M : If Gaetz is indicted and appears in court just facts and evidence will be in the frame. That is what prosecutors must show and all judges are interested in and will allow.
Always prudent to allow for the possibility he is not being framed.
Less egg on your face, and no need to come back and retract that comment.

I enjoy watching the pain, the anguish, the struggle
Greenberg has a sense of remorse and a sense of responsibility? Really? Is it because he and Matty have been caught? π€π€π€
i mean, hes pretty sorry they got caught.
@d c Iβm guessing heβs happy to flip on Matty and get the better deal! ππΌππΌππΌ
Sorry is to late.

Here’s the ultimate truth. No matter how good you believe your friend to be, when faced with life in prison, they WILL give you up. Congratulations Matt Gaetz, you deserve whatever you get.
