Major revelation coming out of the DOJ tonight confirms that Matt Gaetz is totally sunk

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Earlier this week federal prosecutors let it be known to CNN that Joel Greenberg was still providing meaningful assistance when it comes to the criminal cases against his associates like Matt Gaetz. Now we’re getting a better picture of just how seriously the Department of Justice is escalating its case against Gaetz.

It turns out the DOJ added two prosecutors – one with a speciality in public corruption and the other with a specialty in child exploitation crimes – to the Matt Gaetz case three months ago, according to new reporting tonight from the New York Times.

This is a big deal because it means that the DOJ has spent these past few months ramping up the criminal case against Gaetz, in spite of a relative lack of media headlines about the Gaetz case during that same timeframe. As Palmer Report has taken great pains to spell out, a lack of headlines about a criminal probe does not correlate to a lack of action or progress in a criminal probe; it merely means that the probe has been going through a phase in which prosecutors saw no strategic gain in leaking anything to the media, and the media wasn’t able to pry any new details loose of its own accord.

One notable aspect of this New York Times report is that the source is very likely the DOJ itself; who else would even know which DOJ prosecutors have been working on the case behind the scenes? The timing of this new leak, three months after the prosecutors were added to the team, suggests that the DOJ has now decided it wants to ratchet up expectations about the Matt Gaetz case, because big things are about to happen. This doesn’t mean that Gaetz will be rounded up tomorrow; things rarely move that fast. But it does point to Gaetz being arrested fairly soon, and Gaetz being totally sunk when it comes to the criminal case that gets brought against him.
