Gaetz withdraws. I wonder if he goes back to the House? It was a unclear situation since he resigned from his current term but has been re-elected for a new term too. Since he probably doesn't want the investigation to come out he will probably disappear? I bet Kevin MacCarthy feels good.


“While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition,” Gaetz wrote. “There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I’ll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General. Trump’s DOJ must be in place and ready on Day 1.”
Perhaps he won’t return to Congress. Now he has the freedom to pursue his passion of being a sexual predator full time.

Gaetz is replaced by Pam Bondi, who I'm sure is nicknamed by many as Pam Blondie because that's too easy.

I don't know anything about her other than the color of her hair, but at least she was the AG for Florida, so she's not completely unqualified as Gaetz would have been.

He can get a head start on finding a prom date.

She’s a 2020 election denier, led “lock her up” chants in 2016. And most notably took a 25k illegal donation from the Trump organization to look the other way in the Trump University fraud case while Florida AG.

So she’s corrupt as hell and loyal to DonOld. She fits the bill.

Gaetz felt like he needed to step aside so he can spend more time with other people’s kids.

My guess is that he'll be spending some time in court fighting civil suits against him, so no sense in cluttering up his schedule with Congressional duties.
Former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, who withdrew from consideration as President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general on Thursday, said Friday he will not be returning to Congress next year.
