What else are they hiding?

John,

 

In return for leading the initiative to remove Kevin McCarthy from his position as Speaker of the House, Matt Gaetz is taking hits from Republicans in Congress.

 

“We had all seen the videos he was showing on the House floor, that all of us had walked away, of the girls that he had slept with.”

 

That comment from Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin wasn’t made two years ago when Gaetz became the subject of a sex trafficking investigation. It was made last week.

 

Gaetz is the latest example of an issue we all know exists but don’t talk about enough:

 

House Republicans are swimming in scandals, and they treat Congress like teens in a fraternity rather than elected officials. Your secrets are safe, as long as you’re with us.

 

We saw this unfold in March of last year when House freshman Madison Cawthorn let slip to the press that he had seen his colleagues use cocaine and that one Republican had invited him to an orgy. The firehose of leaks and Republican attacks against Cawthorn hit the press in the blink of an eye.

 

Republican lawmakers knew who Cawthorn was referring to, and they knew what secrets Cawthorn had in his own closet. Republicans also knew who Matt Gaetz was off-camera, in the halls of Congress. They said nothing until it benefited them.

 

House Republicans do more to protect each other’s abuses of power than they do to protect the American people. Help me kick one of them out, and I’ll show the chamber what a REAL leader looks like.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

The GOP did not denounce Cawthorn for a plethora of House ethics rules violations, or for his participation in events following the 2020 election – including urging voters to “lightly threaten” members of Congress and encouraging bloodshed.

 

They chose to stay tight-lipped when Gaetz was tied to a sex trafficking operation involving underage girls, and when evidence suggested he had misused Florida state records and defrauded donors.

 

Not to mention that they are treating Rep. George Santos as a legitimate member of Congress despite allegedly fabricating campaign donations, defrauding donors, lying about his education and background, and a dozen other charges.

 

Compare that to the response from Democrats when Sen. Bob Menendez was accused of bribery and corruption last month. Democrats wasted no time before calling for his resignation.

 

I’m running to represent YOU in the U.S. House of Representatives because a functioning Congress needs leaders who aren’t afraid of transparency, accountability, or honesty.

 

House Republicans obviously aren’t up to the task, John.

 

Unapologetically scandal-free,

 

David Roth
