These allegations have been out for a long time. Police enforcement of some sort is investigating this for sure. State and local for sure.
Isn't Congress currently investigating and folks are calling for them to release the report.
Why Trump Needs to Drain the Swamp

It's a moot point now. But until the case is dropped and/or until the statute of limitations is over whatever law enforcement agency has jurisdiction will continue looking at it.
I believe Linda Darnell acted as the love interest to several Hollywood Stars. They were later annoyed when they found out she was only 15. Gaetz broke off with the 17-year-old when he found out her age. However, the ongoing research shows there was no case.
I agree that the military-industrial complex and globalist corporations fund the PACs that choose who to run for President and tell the Swamp politicians how to vote. The way to stop the corruption is to outlaw insider trading, tell them they can't own the media, have Vivek and Elon expose the pork, and investigate all Swamp creatures living outside their means.
The very fact that Matt has attacked those who were a cancer should be the reason everyone, whether R or D, should be excited about the prospect of curtailing the graft and corruption in DC. I can give a rat's behind whether they are prosecuted. Just curtail it!!!
This reminds me of the idiocy of the so-called journalists who kept asking Trump if he wants Ukraine to win the war. Trump kept saying that he wants to end the war and stop the killing.

Bondi will get approved, and she will do one hell of a job.
So why is she not a DEI hire like y’all call black women when they get selected for something? Why aren’t you underestimating or undervaluing Bondi like y’all do black women?
Here's the difference. Biden targets DEI hires. He considered no one other than a black woman to be his VP. Trump picked a loyal executive for Dept of Ed who happens to be a woman.
Biden never targeted black men for Def Secretary. But yet Lloyd Austin, with extensive military leadership background, is still called a DEI hire. Coach Walters is considered a DEI hire. On and on. Justice Ketanji Brown. As soon as she was announced that she was chosen to be justice folks here immediately attacked her intelligence. Yet her qualifications that preceded her was comparable or superseded the other justices including Uncle Clarence Thomas. Speaking of which, since he was nominated by a Republican president, I never hear anyone say that he was a DEI hire.
Please don't play dumb on this. Biden announced that he would pick a black VP BEFORE he chose one. That's the difference. He did the same thing with Justice Ketanji Brown. Biden announced he would pick a black woman BEFORE he chose Brown. In both cases, being a black woman was a prerequisite for the job.
Well Brown being unable to answer the question what is a woman didn’t give people much confidence in her selection. She being called a DEI hire is probably why.
The black women that Biden considered and ultimately chose, the qualifications that pre-seeded them were outstanding particularly compared to the predecessors.
I didn't say they weren't qualified and they may indeed have been "outstanding" but Brown was clearly a DEI hire. Biden announced he would consider no one other than a black woman for the job. That's a DEI hire. Period. Squeal and distort and evade all you wish. That doesn't change the fact that this was a DEI hire.
Coach Walters is not a DEI hire. He was a woefully under prepared hire. Doesn't matter what color a coach is, if he/she produces the same results they should be removed. If he/she is successful, their hiring should have been based on qualifications. Clearly our AD failed in the vetting process.
Isn't the argument against DEI hires is that they aren't qualified and only got the job because of DEI? If they're qualified what's the point? Just to complain about DEI?
There were fools on the football forum that did call Walters a DEI hire. People do this every time a black person in leadership roles fail. Notre Dame fans were saying the same thing when they were struggling for a while. When a white person on a leadership roll fails, nothing derogatory is said.
BS. It not circular logic. You don't have an answer or don't want to answer.
If Biden doesn't say he's hiring a black woman and then hires one who is qualified, is that DEI? Is the the question of qualification not the determining factor here? Not whether he announced it or not?
What seems clear is you want to label hiring of minorities as DEI regardless of whether they are qualified or not.
an educated guess is that a hand was not shown to be a preference...like I'm going to hire a black female...along with the first choice that couldn't be described as DEI person. Biden did that with his justice saying he wanted a black female for the bench...not proposing to appoint the best, but to fill a demographic as though there is some significance in that demographic that someone might choose.
Can you honestly say that Hegseth, Gaetz, and RFK Jr are the best of the best for the cabinet positions that they were selected for?
Nope. I actually like Condeleeza Rice. Colin Powell as well. There are/were not black grifters. Was Rice a DEI hire? Most republicans will say no. This DEI stuff seems to only apply to dems selections.
Here is the thing I don't think I got through. Whether they are or are not, there was no proclamation that someone was picked outside of the best choice and chosen as a result of DEI. You may, and others may have different perspectives on who was the best, but nobody has a reason to suggest that DEI was in play since it was never a consideration. THAT is a huge problem! When identity politics are a priority not only as a major platform of the democratic party, but when prefigured prior to an appointment of course DEI is a thought held by many. Had identity politics not been in play and had there not been a public statement with preference to identity politics, then most would not have DEI enter their minds. I don't recall Condi with her accomplishments being considered a DEI.
Now relative to the three you listed. I don't have the insight and relative background to know who was best to address the major mandates the public wanted as a result of the overwhelming percent of people that wanted a few things having a major change like the border, economy, crime and the threat of all chaos in all the wars, and other countries that might explode as well since the USA has no leadership.
Hegseth apparently has a good academic background and actual experience in war and military in general as well as his distinguished service. He might not be the best, but who is then? I don't know.
Most of the country realized the politicization of the DOJ, FBI and CIA used against Trump and other conservative causes...even going back to Obama in targeting with the IRS conservatives. Gaetz would be a bulldog to clean up THAT mess as well. However, it is possible that Trump put him out there as a lightening rod from the libs figuring what happened would and now has Bondi that could be just as tough and will fly through since the dems already shot their wad and Trump had to submit another. Course Gaetz could serve with Bondi and not need approval.
Kennedy , that in spite of the anti-vax stance on many things has always been interested in health as well as wanting to see the files on the deaths of Bobby and John...which now that the country has seen first hand the lying and unethical activities of the FBI and such no doubt has rekindled the desire to know more of what was not to be released until we that were alive at the time are dead. We have a major health problem in this country and the food industry and its lobbyists are culprits. Of course there are others that others would prefer...that is always the case...but there is NONE that would compare to the disasters Biden appointed relative to DEI...and Trannies in particular. Could Kennedy be nearly as bad as this?
Had I read those things you have written I could have saved some text. It's what I get for being out of the loop some.
If Condi were a democrat appointed by a democratic president she would have been called a DEI hire.Here is the thing I don't think I got through.

understand what I wrote. I don't think I'm getting through what I wish you read. The democrat platform is about identity politics which is DEI. By THAT very nature coupled with the prefiguration of what will be as a result of DEI it will always be in the minds of appointments by democrats that have already announced that as a priority. Conversely, the republicans look at the individual and has never sold out to DEI, which by the way (DEI) also hurts qualified minorities by not having merit as the goal. THE dems promote DEI, rather than merit, and reap the consequences as a result.
Maybe, maybe not. Truthfully, the government is rarely the employer of the best.
To select a black man to be Sec of Defense was never announced. Biden selected a black man with extensive credentials. Yet the repubs still call him a DEI hire. Biden never said that he was going to select a black person for press secretary. Yet Pierre is deemed a DEI hire.
Again you bring up merit. Chumps picks for the cabinet was obviously not based on merit. Instead of picking cabinet members that will actually run the departments. He selected yes men and women regardless of experience to so call “clean things up”. On top of all of this, none of these picks are black. This is just another example of the Republican Party being the party of white supremacy. Just like the RNC convention, the cabinet picks do not represent the racial/ethnic makeup of America.
