Breaking: House Speaker Mike Johnson said he does not think the House Ethics Committee report on allegations related to Matt Gaetz should be released and he is “going to request that the ethics committee not release the report.”
EXCLUSIVE: The woman at the center of the DOJ's probe of Rep. Matt Gaetz testified to the House Ethics Committee that he had sex with her when she was 17 years old, sources say. Read more: abcnews.link/OkwGK69
New: Nearly three-quarters of firearms recovered in several Caribbean nations with high crime rates were manufactured in the US, according to the US’s Government Accountability Office (GAO). Almost 5,400 firearms recovered from crime scenes from 2018 to 2022 in several Caribbean…
This is not a both-sides thing. If RFK Jr. gets in, kids will die of vaccine-preventable disease.
And to my earlier point…
“Controversial” should be retired as a descriptor for these latest Trump administration appointments. These are not candidates just with stray comments or personal foibles. Rather, many have fundamentally different views of the functions of the agencies they’re nominated to lead…
Lutnick: "He’s not getting a job for HHS." Me: "He would not be in charge of HHS?” “No,” Lutnick said, “of course not."
Trump transition co-chair Howard Lutnick — in charge of helping staff the gov if he wins — says he had a 2.5 hour meeting with RFK Jr. who talked about pulling (safe and proven) vaccines from the market. Lutnick says RFK will not be in charge of HHS, despite what RFK said.
Ignore what lawmakers *say* about these nominations. Watch how they vote. One lesson of the Trump years is the wide gap between private consternation and public decision-making when there’s a political price to pay.
Breaking: President-elect Donald Trump is on the verge of announcing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as his next secretary of Health and Human Services. Trump has formally offered the role to Kennedy, a source familiar told CNN. Trump could announce it as soon as today. @kaitlancollins…
Trump is expected to nominate former presidential candidate and anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. @meridithmcgraw @ChelseaCirruzzo politico.com/news/2024/11/1…
“Don’t have a lot of energy for pushing back” could be the mantra for the second Trump term.
What I’m hearing privately from a few key GOP senators: yes, they’d prefer to not have a messy fight over Gaetz. Not their favorite. But they also don’t have a lot of energy for pushing back. Trump runs the show, they say. If Gaetz can reassure them, they’re open to backing him.
With the raft of cabinet selections today, this comment from a retired 4-star stands out: “…the common denominator is clearly loyalty and while some loyalty is essential, slavish fealty is dangerous.” cnn.com/2024/11/13/pol…
A reminder:
Sen. Markwayne Mullin on Matt Gaetz: “We had all seen the videos he was showing on the House floor … of the girls that he had slept with. He’d brag about how he would crush ED medicine and chase it with an energy drink so he could go all night.” Gaetz responds: “This is a lie”
Why? Why can’t they believe it? Trump has been telegraphing moves such as this for four years. They have no reasonable basis to be surprised. It’s disingenuous.
Sen Manchin said senators are talking about the gabbard and Gaetz picks on the senate floor right now. “No one could believe it.”
