New development in criminal probe into Matt Gaetz
And now the latest in the continuing train wreck that is the life of Matt Gaetz. In a Federal grand jury subpoena issued on December 28th, Gaetz is mentioned along with Joel Greenberg and a third person, Joe Ellicott.
Ellicott was an associate of Greenberg’s and also a friend. The subpoena says the grand jury is looking at alleged criminal actions “involving commercial sex acts with adult and minor women.” It was obtained by Politico. Also being looked at according to this subpoena was obstruction of justice.
The recipient of the subpoena was not any of the three mentioned above, but it sought to get documented communications this recipient had with all of the three. As for Gaetz himself? He is still saying this story is a nonstory. He is clearly in denial.
What is fascinating about this whole thing is the love that Gaetz obviously feels toward himself. He has branded himself on Twitter as “unstoppable,” a “firebrand,” and claims to have a “movement.”
In reality, of course, none of this is true at all. But the vanity of Gaetz is interesting. He seemingly cannot stop talking about himself, and once again, I am reminded of the story of Narcissus, who lived out his days staring at his reflection in a pond.
One wonders if Gaetz would kiss himself if possible. Other than the former guy, it is rare to see someone seemingly so obsessed with their own worthiness.
This, of course, comes from deep insecurity as those that genuinely feel worthy do not shout about how worthy they are. It’s going to be a rough road for Gaetz as the public learns more about his seamy deeds and the investigation marches on.
