    Between this loser and Boebert, it’s clear that Republicans barely know what sex is. They’re like unsupervised special ed students.

        The GOP are very concerned about the children.
        Making them work in slaughter houses, lowering the legal age to marry… very concerned about children.

    Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-O.K.) claimed on national television last night that Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-F.L.) bragged about chasing down erectile dysfunction medication with an energy drink to prolong his sexual endeavors.

    That’s the first paragraph of the article. I am not reading another word of it.

      Looks like he’s starting to get the Madison Cawthorne treatment. There’s got to be a ton of dirt floating around in this guy.

      In a sense it very much is news. This speaks to something that people have recently been speculating about, namely: Has Gaetz pissed off enough Republicans that they will start dumping their dirt on him to thoroughly assasinate his character? The publication of this article is essentially a giant “YES” to that question of what the “moderate” Republicans are going to do in the midst of this new Speaker crisis.

      Remember what happened to Madison Cauthorn when he went against his party?

      Gaetz is a bombastic, cavalier party asshole. I bet he constantly fucks stories like these into his friends ears. Every one of them is going to now come out until the silo that houses his support is split and it’s contents are spoiled.

    And MarkWayne Mullin totally cool with Gaetz until he made a cynical power play that pulled the GOP into chaos.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    bragged about chasing down erectile dysfunction medication with an energy drink to prolong his sexual endeavors.

    Frustrated with Gaetz’s actions on Wednesday, Mullin unleashed several allegations against the congressman when speaking to CNN’s Manu Raju outside the Capitol.

    “And there’s a reason why no one in the Congress came and defended him: Because 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,” Mullin added.

    In a statement to CNN read by anchor Anderson Cooper on air, Gaetz denied his colleague’s claim.

    This is a lie from someone who doesn’t know me and who is coping with the death of the political career of his friend Kevin,” Gaetz’s statement read.

    He wrote, “If you’re voting with every single Democrat in the House to oust a Republican Speaker, it’s not about winning for your constituents.

    It’s still a toothpick, blue pill or not. And did he wear a bag over his head so someone would sleep with him?

              It’s funny, I only posted this comment to see the reaction. Specifically because several times recently I’ve seen things like we shouldn’t boob shame Lauren Boebert even though she’s a POS. Those comments were upvoted and got comments of agreement coming in. I’ve always experienced that these societal rules are only for people who are members of certain groups. If it’s someone you don’t like and is a white guy, anything is on the table. So I post this and you accuse me (falsely) of supporting pedophiles. Why the hypocrisy? Thank you for confirming my suspicions in spectacular fashion.

                Hypocrisy? I’ll call an idiot, an idiot regardless of their age, weight, looks, race, gender, social status, country, blah, blah, blah.
                Trash is trash.
                And just an FYI, when someone is garbage and hated like boebert, gaetz, musk, trump, vivek ramaswamy, nikki haley, tim scott, the kardashians, people will pick on the obvious. What do they look like, how do they act, etc.
                Anyone can be garbage.

                  But again, I see people speaking out when someone “body shames” that garbage and it happens to be a woman. When it’s a man, I get accused of being a pedophile for pointing out the hypocrisy. Even if YOU specifically happen to be the one exception (which I don’t concede you are) it’s still a general behavior across sites like this, reddit, etc. People love to make rules for everyone else, but then hold themselves exempt to those exact same rules.
