They wouldn't show restraint for a Democrat. These are empty words

They literally showed pictures of hunter bidens Wang on Cspan and he was a private citizen. So spare me the theater.

Never believe that [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The [fascists] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Did I miss something? Are private citizens who rape children immune to prosecution?

This definition of private citizen seems to extend to all human beings... so why do we even do ethics reports.

Either:

• The report incriminates him, and Johnson is defending a paedophile.
• The report exonerates him, and Johnson is actively preventing Gaetz' exoneration.

Both options make Johnson a shitstain.

Guy defends the pedo that got him his job. What's new with the Republican party?

"Public figures confused about what 'pivate citizen' means"

there I fixed the headline

But he wasn't a "private citizen" when he did the things you investigated, so release the fucking report.

Those checks and balances are just a myth at this point.

Gaetz was a congressperson when it all took place. That report is government property, AKA it belongs to all Americans.

Or Biden releases it as a matter of national security? Dems have no balls.

Trump should be in prison now because he still is a 'normal citizen'.

This motherfucker has covered up some shit in his life. This is not far from the pastor telling the pedo he smoothed things over with the victims family and if we pray about it everything will be ok.

Remember, this is the same guy who still claims he doesn't have a bank account. By my mind that means he's lied on every disclosure and is likely hiding more than just a few bank accounts and investments.

This may be a hot take but PEDOPHILES ARE NOT ENTITLED TO PRIVACY

It’s funny and a bit ironic how far Mr. Jesus (Johnson) has fallen since he took office. Going out of his way to protect pedophiles and rapists like Gaetz and Trump and doing nothing but looking after the interests of how much money his boss is going to be making.

_Matthew 6:24

No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money._

Who is applying for a different government job.

As an alternative argument, that report almost certainly shows evidence of criminal wrongdoing, and it'd be weird to shield private citizens like that.

Leak it...

Next time I'm in legal trouble I'll just tell people that they can't look at the evidence because I"m a private citizen

He is Schrodingers citizen: both a public servant AND a private citizen whose waveform doesn't collapse until the investigations begin.

If the report was exonerating, they'd release. Therefore, drawing the adverse inference: holy shit, trump nominated a child rapist to the justice department.

A sitting representative just needs to read it into the Congressional Record.

If he's representing me, then I have a right to see it. Period.

I swear, these conservatives now lack any kind of moral standard.

Says the guy watching pornos with his son

Can someone just fucking leak it already

Except thats bullshit because house reports have been released after members resigned in the past.

He almost turns me into a believer because it seems the only place these fuckers might face any consequences would be hell itself.

Blatant disregard for anything in the way of violently grabbing power. This guy is gross.
