Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman, do you guys vote to release this report?
What you are watching there are members of Congress leaving the ethics committee meeting where the Republicans voted to block the release of the ethics report into Donald Trump's attorney general pick Matt Gates. The ethics report is believed to describe in very specific detail how Matt Gates engaged in child sex trafficking with multiple children victims, as well as how Matt Gates engaged in
rampant drug abuse, as well as how Matt Gates engaged in obstruction of justice. But the Republicans on the committee voted to block the release of the ethics report. Thus, the ethics report will not be released, at least by the House of Representatives, which had jurisdiction. You'll recall that Matt Gates resigned his position as a member of Congress after Donald Trump nominated him to be the highest law enforcement position.
in the United States of America, the attorney general. That's right. Let me just repeat it again. The house ethics committee voted and Republicans voted to block the release of the report. This comes as Matt Gates was walking around the halls of Capitol Hill today with Donald Trump's vice president elect J.D. Vance and Donald Trump's pick for secretary of state Marco Rubio and others
Um, and a lot of the MAGA supporters were posting this Gates Rubio Vance seen this AM together on Capitol Hill. He's getting confirmed. Sorry Libs. So the way the MAGAs are talking about this, this is a great way to own the Libs by having someone who may have engaged in child sex trafficking with multiple children victims to become attorney general also.
someone who's never actually practiced law in a courtroom before, at least to any meaningful degree. So zero trial experience also putting that unqualified person to be attorney general. Look, Donald Trump gave a directive to members of Congress and to
senators today as well. Here's what Donald Trump posted. He says, this is what the radical left lunatics do to people. They dirty them up. They destroy them and they spit them out. They are trying that right now with some great American patriots who are only trying to fix the mess that the Democrats have made of our country. Then he puts in all caps. We will win exclamation point, exclamation point, MAGA.
Shortly thereafter, Donald Trump then made a post selling Trump guitars for $2,500 per guitar, which don't get delivered for at least five to six months. That's how Donald Trump is spending his time. We also learned today, first via ABC news that Matt Gaetz sent over $10,000 in Venmo payments to the two women who testified about Matt Gaetz sex trafficking charges.
And allegations here you see the Venmo payments that were made $500 $514 $772 and they were accompanied by Venmo notes to the girls such as being my friend being awesome just because Travel expenses there's other ones here like card deductible cartridges
Love you refreshments. These were the payments made to the individuals who testified before the house ethics committee. Also, there's this check right here for $750 to the girls. And it was written to with the memo reading tuition reimbursement. I think there was a total of about 27 Venmo payments totaling $10,000.
that were made. Now, this also comes as Marjorie Taylor Greene said that she is aware of numerous other Republicans who have similar situations to Matt Gaetz and who may be affiliated with Jeffrey Epstein and other sex traffickers like Jeffrey Epstein. And so one of the ways these maggots threatened other MAGA Republicans not to release the ethics report is by essentially extorting them.
saying, we know your relationships with Epstein. We know that you are pedos and we will tell the world about you. If you release the ethics report about Matt Gaetz, after Donald Trump nominated Matt Gaetz to be the attorney general of the United States, Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote for my Republican colleagues in the House and Senate, if we are going to release ethics reports and rip apart our own, that Trump has appointed and put it all out there for the American people to see. Yes.
All the ethics reports and claims, including the one I filed, all your sexual harassment and assault claims that were secretly settled paying off victims with tax payer money. Mind you, she's talking about her Republican colleagues right here. Then she goes on to tell her Republican colleagues the entire Jeffrey Epstein files, tapes, recordings, witness interviews, but not just those. There's more.
Epstein wasn't isn't the only asset. So if we're going to dance, let's dance in the sunlight. And apparently that combined with Donald Trump, who's been found liable for sexual assault by a jury, their comments convinced the Republicans to block the release of this
report. It is just so it would be stunning and shocking if this wasn't who Donald Trump is. This episode is brought to you by Wild Grain.

Maga Mike Johnson was also on record as saying that he did not want to release the report that would have showed or could have showed that Matt Gaetz was involved in child sex trafficking. Here's Maga Mike Johnson saying that play the clip.
And here's Jim Jordan who before he was a member of Congress when he was a member of the wrestling coaching staff at the Ohio State University
He was well known for covering up sexual abuse by the wrestling coach at the Ohio State. Here Jim Jordan says, Nope, we're not releasing this report. We're keeping this report hush, hush, because that's what Republicans do. The party of petals. Here's Jim Jordan. Play the clip.
And Congressman Jordan, do you have any sense about what will happen with that House ethics report that was supposed to come out Friday? Remember, Gates had been accused of things and no prosecution had been continued, it had been dropped. But Dick Durban's trying to get his hands on that report, obviously, to leak it out to hurt President Trump. What is your sense on that?
Well, it's my understanding that is not supposed to go public. So if it's not supposed to under the rules, it shouldn't go public. And what I know about that, Matt Gaetz is one of the best members we had on our committee. And my time in Congress, which has been a while, I don't know, there are very few people who have the cross-examination skills he does. And I want someone in the Justice Department who's not going to say moms and dads at school boards meeting needs to be investigated.
I want someone at the Justice Department who's going to say it's wrong for the FBI to do a memorandum and say that pro-life Catholics are extremists. I want someone at the Justice Department who can tell us who planted the pipe bombs on January 6, who leaked the Dobbs opinion, who put cocaine at the White House instead of all the other stuff they seem to be focused on.
Oh, and then by the way, you had Stephen Miller last night on Hannity also saying that regardless, they were going to push Matt Gaetz through and Tulsi Gabbard through and RFK through and others through recess appointments. Here is what he said. If there are some cabinet appointments that become troublesome, will the president use the recess appointment process?
Yes, the president has won a mandate and he will use all lawful constitutional means to fulfill that mandate on behalf of the people who voted for him in record numbers. All right. And here is what MAGA Republican Senator Rick Scott said earlier as well. Play the clip. One quick question. Where do you stand on recess appointments? Mitch McConnell, it's reported, has said that there's not going to be any recess appointments. Would you support recess appointments?
I think we've got to do everything. Everything's got to be on the table to get Donald Trump nominees approved as quickly as possible. When Trump became president in January 2017, his nominees did not get through quickly, that has got to change. So either we've got to get him through the Senate or if we need to do recess appointments, we should do recess appointments. So that is where we are at, folks, the MAGA Republicans going all in on covering up sex trafficking allegations. I just want to be very clear.
Okay, if there were anything that would have demonstrated that Gates didn't do this, don't you think they would have released this report? Don't you think that would have been made public then? So they are knowingly covering up sex trafficking allegations with very specific details to try to help Matt Gates. That's what the Republicans are doing right now. And Donald Trump is, you see all of his moves right now, quite literally picking people to lead the cabinet.
destroy the departments, destroy the government. That's his goal. What did you think he meant when he said retribution? He's going to destroy the United States of America. You see him doing it right there. So wake up people because that's what's happening right now before our very eyes. And if that doesn't piss you, I don't care what political party, you're not owning the libs by having a sex trafficker be the attorney general, you're owning the cut, you're owning yourself, you're acting ridiculous.
