  1. “In 2017, Gaetz was the lone member of Congress to vote against an anti-human trafficking bill that gave the federal government more money to fight the illegal trade across the country…The Senate unanimously passed the bipartisan bill in 2017, after which it went to the House of Representatives, where it passed — though not unanimously — 418 to 1. Former President Donald Trump signed the bill into law in January 2018.” I guess he must have been sweating bullets when the bill passed.

  2. The DOJ original investigation was on Gaetz’s Bff, an indicted GOP Tax Collector in a small Florida county charged with underage sex trafficking and corruption. News then breaks about Gaetz thinking about leaving Congress to work as a political mouthpiece of some sort at the right-wing NewMax media and suddenly news break that the DOJ is investigating Gaetz for sex trafficking? Like they say, where there’s smoke there is fire. And it appears there is going to be a whole lot of fire.

  3. “When a federal prosecutor deems someone a target, it means the government believes there's substantial evidence that person has committed a crime. ... To a federal prosecutor, a subject is a person whose conduct is within the scope of a grand jury's investigation…” If the federal prosecutor says you are a subject of an investigation, it means they do not have enough evidence yet against you. A witness is someone they do not considered being criminally involved in the investigation.

  4. Gaetz had stated that the DOJ lawyers had told his lawyers that he was a subject in their investigation. By DOJ rules federal prosecutors must state if you are a target, subject, or witness in their investigation.
