• Matt Gaetz said he is withdrawing his name from consideration as President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for U.S. attorney general.
• “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,” said the former Republican congressman from Florida.

The new attacks by democrats on Gaetz would be a distraction on the Trump administration just as Gaetz noted, he would have been perfect for the AG spot in my opinion, a sharp individual, a true patriot, and 100% a Trump loyalist

Curiosity on Trumps new pick?

Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Mike Lee, all lawyers?

IMHO I would like to see Ted Cruz (Texas) in the past 2 years he's been a fireball on exposing the democrats, and he seems to have come into the MAGA fold?

Josh Hawley, Mike Lee, Outsider?

In order to continue to advance the America first MAGA agenda, I would prefer for those 3 Senators remain in the Senate. It's been reported that Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is on the short list to be nominated by Trump to be the next US Attorney General.

Gaetz withdraws as attorney general nominee

“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 said.

The new attacks by democrats on Gaetz

The GOP-led House Ethics Committee has been investigating Gaetz for these matters for a long time.

What we've learned is from sworn testimony from the women involved.

the allegations are completely a fabricated lie, so says the fabricator of the lie in a hand written letter from prison.

It's interesting that Matt Gaetz decided to step back from the Attorney General nomination. It seems like he didn’t want to let the situation distract from the bigger picture.

I Agree 100%, and don't forget his meeting yesterday with Senate leaders, I think he came up against the RINO-Swampers, the Mitch McConnell clones, I would pay $1,000 to have been a fly on the wall in that meeting

IMHO Gaetz is what we needed to clean house within the justice department, and the RINO-Swampers were/are scared to death of him being AG, Gaetz a politician who's been proven and tested, the Kevin Mccarthy ouster in the house being a prime example

To think Mitch McConnell being investigated by AG Gaetz for bribery from China, having a wife who's father owning a international shipping business (Foremost) tied to Communist China, his fleet of ships were made in Communist China's shipyards, the Commies funded his business

Having a young sister in law 50yrs old who just died in Feb 2024, she was on the board of the Communist Bank of China, she was vice chair of Communist China's foreign trade commission?

Ole Mitch McConnell was shaking in his boots when he saw Gaetz as Trumps AG pick

Do you mean Republican sex trafficker Joel Greenberg?

Funny how you accused 'Democrats' of doing something, when everyone you name is a Republican.

Ted Cruz - no, Josh Hawley - no .... Mike Lee - yes .... add to the list Ken Paxton.

whomp, whomp.

Ken Paxton is carrying too much baggage

Or there's some information from the ethics investigation he didn't want revealed during a confirmation hearing.

Joke's on him. If he had vanished immediately after his friend went down for sex trafficking, things might never have gotten to this stage. But now that there's a virtually complete ethics report, it'll come out, one way or another (indeed it already is in dribs and drabs).

Meanwhile Ex-Speaker McCarthy...
