Ahh. Yes, thanks.House doesn’t do confirmations. That’s a Senate responsibility.
Durbin is asking already. He'll get at least some Republican support I think.

Look. I’ll be as clear as I can for you. Grown men having sex with children is horrendous and a crime. There are no political blinders any decent human being should be viewing this through. If you do, you are a terrible human. If your excuse for anyone’s terrible and criminal actions are that some equally terrible person from a different political persuasion did it, I’d recommend you do some introspection.Gaetz is a Class-A slime ball most likely.
And also one of the stupidest picks I've ever heard of for a position of importance. Hoping he can't get confirmed.
But 'the vapors' about behavior that has also been alleged very similarly about some other popular politicians is what is so tribal. Other slimeballs in politics doesn't make him less so, but it shows the partisans unless they have called it out for the others.

Gaetz is a Class-A slime ball regardless of whether or not he banged a teen hooker. There are 999 other reasons why he shouldn't have this appointment.Gaetz is a Class-A slime ball most likely.

I would venture to say that most everyone on this board wouldn’t be in their current jobs with 3 DUIs. In Indiana, you might be permanently disbarred.Gaetz is a Class-A slime ball regardless of whether or not he banged a teen hooker. There are 999 other reasons why he shouldn't have this appointment.
If you are willing to recess appoint a position as important as AG you might as well blow up the government, separation of powers, etc. Going to be fun watching thus train wreck. The economic engines of this country rely on some level of predictability and normalcy. The markets hate uncertainty.

Shit show coming .
Has this guy (Gaetz) ever tried a case? Or even set foot in a courtroom? After graduating from law school he was in private practice for about five minutes before becoming a career politician.If you are willing to recess appoint a position as important as AG you might as well blow up the government, separation of powers, etc. Going to be fun watching thus train wreck.

If Gaetz banged my 17 yr old daughter it’d be the last time he ever banged anyoneSame thing. So she got SOS because Bill needed her out of the house more.
So, allegedly, Gaetz is some slime for banging a 17 year old when he was about, what 35? Because it was underage in Florida. where if it had been in Indiana it would be legal?. Guess he should've been a Hoosier.
So it probably wouldn’t be a positive that he, say, brought a bunch of drugs to the teenage party?If Gaetz banged my 17 yr old daughter it’d be the last time he ever banged anyone
It would be impossible to make a worse pickSo it probably wouldn’t be a positive that he, say, brought a bunch of drugs to the teenage party?
That sounds like a question for @BradStevensSo it probably wouldn’t be a positive that he, say, brought a bunch of drugs to the teenage party?
It’s really something that the Trump fans just brush it off and say “well, we will just do recess appointments”. Like that makes it OK.It would be impossible to make a worse pick
Damn, it’s already over two months before it started. That’s unfortunate news for the Dream Team.It’s really something that the Trump fans just brush it off and say “well, we will just do recess appointments”. Like that makes it OK.
To all you normal folks who voted for Trump because you thought you would get policies you prefer, nope. You won’t get anything. These 2 years of the GOP controlling the federal government will be wasted. Just like the last time. It will be a circus at best and an unmitigated disaster at worst.
Even a circus has its silver lining.It’s really something that the Trump fans just brush it off and say “well, we will just do recess appointments”. Like that makes it OK.

Anything is better than a progressive.It would be impossible to make a worse pick
I see your boy Robinson lost.More dangerous than going after political rivals? More dangerous than going after parents who speak up at school board meetings? More dangerous than going after religious groups for 'terrorism'?
There clearly is no reasoning among these sheepI don’t get this reasoning.
It’s like saying “Hey, let’s hire Mike Woodson. He’s not as bad as Archie Miller. “
He ran on loyalty. Gaetz has been a stalwart. I'm shocked that anyone is shocked. I didn't vote for the man, but any Trump voter should be delighted. So far it's full steam ahead with the agenda.It would be impossible to make a worse pick
If I were a Trump voter and he passed Trump's character test then he would pass mine. Trump deserves the cabinet that he wants. How can you blame him if he is unable to act on his agenda if he does not have the team he wants assisting him?OK
Then in Indiana girls are not children at 17, or the legislature excuses terrible crimes.
I feel if she was representing as 18, it's a factor, and if that's true, then the drug use if true bothers me as much. I knew a couple senior girls when I was a junior in high school, shacking up with their much, ten years-ish, older adult boyfriends. I didn't like it then either.

Can be a Trump voter and still expect the senate to do their jobs and weed out the worst of Trumps base instincts. There's reasons to prefer Trump over Kamala than 'he always rulz!' Three branches of government after all.If I were a Trump voter and he passed Trump's character test then he would pass mine. Trump deserves the cabinet that he wants.
