      In a sense it very much is news. This speaks to something that people have recently been speculating about, namely: Has Gaetz pissed off enough Republicans that they will start dumping their dirt on him to thoroughly assasinate his character? The publication of this article is essentially a giant “YES” to that question of what the “moderate” Republicans are going to do in the midst of this new Speaker crisis.

      Remember what happened to Madison Cauthorn when he went against his party?

      Gaetz is a bombastic, cavalier party asshole. I bet he constantly fucks stories like these into his friends ears. Every one of them is going to now come out until the silo that houses his support is split and it’s contents are spoiled.
