'Has Secretary Mayorkas Ever Lied To You?': Rep. Matt Gaetz Questions Witness during a House Hearing in Yuma, AZ

  Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0,  via Flickr At today's House Judiciary Committee field hearing in Yuma, Arizona, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) spoke to witnesses about the border. In a recent House Judiciary Committee field hearing in Yuma, Arizona, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) addressed witnesses about the border crisis. He began by stating that the people of Yuma deserve better from the federal government than they have been getting, and that it is up to the House of Representatives to fight for them. Gaetz pointed out that not a single Democrat was present at the briefing, showing that this is a deeply unserious exercise. Dr. Trenchel, one of the witnesses, explained that one in four of the migrants who use birthing services at their hospital require neonatal Intensive Care Unit Services (NICU), a rate much higher than that of the non-migrant population. With only 20 beds at any given time, they often fill up due to the pressure of migrant communities. When they do, resident...

  Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0,  via Flickr At today's House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) praised former President Donald J. Trump for allowing Black and Jewish Americans to join his private clubs when that was not the norm. Matt Gaetz in his house floor speech said:  Mr. Chairman, let me begin by saying that it used to be the case on Palm Beach Island that no blacks or Jews were even allowed to be members or invited as members at the private clubs, and it was actually Donald Trump before he was in politics who made that, I believe, very important change so that we weren't treating people differently based on their immutable traits. I also want to say something on the subject of this hearing when it comes to Supreme Court ethics and guardrails. I am supportive of bipartisan efforts to have some sort of ethics construct on the court. I don't understand why Congress is subject to ethics rules and the executive is subject to ethics rules, ...

Matt Gaetz Trashes Biden Border Policy Over Fentanyl Concerns At today's House Judiciary Committee hearing.

  Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0,  via Flickr At today's House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-TX) spoke about drug policy. Rep. Gaetz in his remarks said: Mr. Chairman, I can't imagine being one of the 232 people sitting in federal prison right now thinking if I had committed the exact same offense after President Trump had signed the first step act, I wouldn't be here anymore. I'd be with my family. But instead, because of what I think is a flawed determination that didn't allow retroactivity, we are treating people differently for committing the same offenses. We're incarcerating some people for the very same offenses that they would otherwise not be incarcerated for. And so I think that's an appropriate fix. There has been discussion today about fentanyl and it irks me every time I hear someone talk about fentanyl overdoses. Because no one overdoses on fentanyl because I don't think anybody really sets out to, like, sco...

Matt Gaetz: 'A House Democrat Chairman Did Something That Was Explicitly And Undeniably Racist'

  Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0,  via Flickr On Wednesday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) spoke about Justice Clarence Thomas at a House Judiciary Committee hearing. Matt in his House Speech said: Democrats brought us FDR's inflation, they brought us FDR's recessions and now they're trying to get us FDR's attacks on the court. FDR's court-packing strategy. this isn't about judicial ethics or transparency the American people know that.  Democrats don't like the fact that republicans while in power put folks on the court who are now ruling in adherence with the strict text of the constitution rather than their desire to engage in an anti-democratic process. And the other reason we know that this isn't about ethics and that this bill is just gaslighting to justify packing the supreme court is because the gentleman from New York Mr. Jones told us. I said the quiet part out loud that the goal here is to pack the court and attack an institution valued ...

Matt Gaetz said: Gas prices are rising, the border has become a turnstile, inflation is crushing our fellow Americans, and here we are, back on the floor of the house reliving January 6th. Some of the members of the January 6 committee come from the swamps of Washington D.C. I come from the swamps of Florida and I know alligator tears when I see them and yet we are lectured about performing for the former president.

Austin: It's the national defense university as an academic institution and I don't know of any such lecture!
