Heh. She's the one that took the donation from Trump and decided not to prosecute Trump U.

“Matt is licking his wounds. This hurt. But he knew what he was getting into,” a friend of Gaetz’s said on condition of anonymity. I completely understand a friend of Matt Gaetz wanting to remain anonymous.

Lara Trump is getting that seat

Sporkfoot Marge

yep. His district is ruby-red, and he's a universally-loathed asshole. He's toast.

“I hereby resign as U.S. representative of Florida’s 1st Congressional District effective immediately. And I do not intend to take the oath of office for the same office in the 119th Congress to pursue the position of attorney general in the Trump administration,” Gaetz said in the letter.

Johnson has said that Gaetz' resignation letter said that he's resigning from the current Congress, and will not be seated in the next.

...

Ken Paxton, come on down!

now the big dick toilet guy is ambassador to NATO? Perfect.

gracias

mortgage dudes: I've been out of it for a bit and I have a listing appointment coming up. In case I'm asked, what is the going rate for a 30 year conforming?

FIFY

because, after all, there is no "Department of Handjobs"

Scott Jennings on CNN is a total cunt, but, he just posed an interesting question: Gaetz resigned from THIS Congress (118th??). He's also been (re)elected to the NEXT Congress. Jennings asks if, assuming the wheels come off this nomination, can he just show up in January and be sworn in to his "old" seat?

Gaetz seems like your kind of man.

I went over to texags, and it was pretty meh on Gaetz. Several posters said it was a bad pick.

Markwayne Mullin on CNN says he "trusts President Trump's judgement" regarding Gaetz. Grassley reportedly couldn't speak for 30 seconds when told Gaetz was the pick. Murkowski says "We need a serious AG. I'm looking forward to considering somebody serious. This was not on my bingo card". Mullin also says recess appointments will be a "last resort", but that they will go that way "if necessary".

Fucking Matt Gaetz took a cell phone into a SCIF, and now he's the AG.

He's not kidding. It's Gaetz.

it's the weirdest fucking cemetery I've ever seen. Very small. About a block from the corner of Wilshire and Westwood Bl. You'd never expect it to be there. Marilyn Monroe and Hef are there. Truman Capote too.

President-elect Donald Trump’s former lawyer, Alina Habba, told Fox News she “would think about it very seriously” if asked by Trump to serve as his White House press secretary. During his show on Tuesday evening, Fox News host Sean Hannity asked Habba about Mediaite’s exclusive report from Diana Falzone, which stated that the former Trump lawyer had emerged as a clear frontrunner for the role of press secretary. “Let’s talk about the possibility and reports that you might be the president’s press secretary. Any truth to it?” asked Hannity. Habba replied, “I leave it to the president and three people that are on my board of directors. That’s Luke, Chloe, and Parker, my children. Everybody will know in time.” “Alright, now I gotta go in a little harder,” pressed Hannity. “Have there been any discussions about it?” Habba dodged the question, responding: Hannity then pressed Habba one last time. “Alright, serious question. If you were asked to serve in that role or any other role, would you?” he questioned, to which Habba replied, “I am very loyal to President Trump. I would think about it very seriously.” Watch above via Fox News.
