  1. If Gaetz is dirty, let him hang. Right now we’re playing right into the left’s ” distraction” games. I heard him and his claims on Carlsen’s show….it is a mess….but let’s see where it’s going. Would you call his votes ” betrayals” ? Disagreements, yes, but betrayal is a bit harsh. Gaetz has been steadfast with defending Trump where it really mattered, and he also had a lot to say about the democrat detractors.

    1. Precisely why the dirty corrupt FBI and their leftist regime are going after Gaetz – he is a threat to them solely based on his voice. May the regime in power is pulling another false made-up Trump impeachment – now to distract voters from Gaetz and from what they are really doing – destroying the American dream.

        1. Barr is a swamp critter and his life time in DC has made him a traitor to the public at large so nothing would surprise me at his involvement

    2. Disagreeing with someone does not mean “betraying” someone. Gaetz is a fiscal conservative. Although I generally agreed with Trump on most things, he did increase the federal budget by a lot. I did feel that his policies, though, made up for it by providing jobs and creating a strong economy. I felt that this would, over time even out the spending. Unfortunately, the pandemic hit and now the present administration will do our economy in. The fact that they are going after Gaetz tells me that they are fearful that he will be successful in his political career. If they are against him, I am for him.

      1. Daisy, if you think Trump increased the federal budget, just wait to you see the figures Biden is racking up and it is only 3 months into his term. It will affect average citizens because someone has to foot the bill. Just the monies alone he is giving to illegal immigrants – thousands of dollars for each of them is enough to make one’s eyes bulge. And you are very right about why they are going after Gaetz. Anyone who has heard him stand up to Pelosi and the other corrupt Democrats when they meet realizes what a threat he is the leftist liberals. They have to get rid of him and all like him.

    3. We know who is who and which way is up and the MSM is hyping everything – Your absolutely right but we know the truth –The lies they tell only show how corrupt they are –

  2. Rep. Matt Gaetz voted against budgets President Trump signed in 2017, 2018, and 2019. 
    I would have voted against those outrageous pork bills too.

    On December 21, 2020, Rep. Gaetz betrayed the President and voted against a bill he signed to give COVID-19 relief to American workers. 
    I would not have voted for this bill either nor the first bill nor the COVID bill just passed. They are full of Democrat give-a-ways to Democrat cronies, worthless entities and even foreign governments. What does that have to do with COVID relief? Why did the Kennedy Center get millions? Why did the National Endowment for the Arts as well as other parasite organizations get millions while American citizens who are actually hurting get chump change? The only thing most of us had against President Trump was going along with bloated spending just to get needed legislation passed although this is mainly the fault of Congress, Democrats & Republicans. Otherwise President Trump is probably the best president we have had in my 70+ years.

    Rep. Gaetz voted against President Trump’s calls not to impose more sanctions on Russia, Iran, and North Korea.
    Is this a typo? Because I don’t think President Trump called not to impose more sanctions. Give President Trump’s actual position on this and give the reason why Gaetz opposed him on this and the other bills he voted against the President’s position.

    1. Your are absolutely correct. I’ve often wondered about AAN. Gaetz is not a puppet being ordered to think 100% like Trump. He a free man with his own perspective & with the responsibility to look out for the free people of Florida. I’m thankful for Trump but he is not all knowing God. If everyone around him were 100% in agreement, he would be dictator. That is what the elites are like. They have to vote a certain way to be “in the club”. They are the ones without integrity, the ones who do not bother reading to see what has been snuck into a bill that can hurt their constituents. Those are the politicians that betrayed Trump. Those are the politicians who betrayed the American people. They are nothing more than puppets to club. The ones with respect we call Statesmen.

  3. He sure has a track record of betrayal and at times the good and decent American taxpaying Citizens needed him! I think he is done now, he has the entire corrupt satanic Nazi democrat party after him and they have sicked their Waffen SS on him now. The second largest criminal organization in the world are experts at making false charges stick in their corrupt courts the Sondergerichte will convict him!

  4. Interesting how quickly they move on Gaetz but they can’t seem to move on Hunter Biden and certainly couldn’t get Hillary’s lying email scandal done and her lying to parents over Benghazi….When people are guilty then do the right thing but don’t lie and go after people that aren’t guilty like General Flynn. I don’t trust any of them anymore and that in itself is very sad.

    1. Same. Cold day in hades before they tell the truth about Demorats. Hillary, Comey, Hunter, and the entire sorry bunch.

  5. I’m glad to read in the comments that most of us agree that Matt Gaetz is one of the good guys. Let’s not fall for democrat diversions and throw a good man under the bus. He has done a great job in fighting for conservative values.

  6. YOU DARED TO VOTE AGAINST HURRICANE HARVEY RELIEF———– WHERE YOU MAD????? TELL ME BUSTER HAVE YOU LIVED THROUGH A HURRICANE—— THEY ARE MONSTERS AND CAN DO ALOT OF DAMAGE BECAUSE BUSTER THEY COVER A WIDE AREA NOT LIKE A DARN TORNADO . LIE BEING 100 MILES WIDE.. AND BUTER I SHOULD KNOW I WAS IN PLENTY FROM 58-THROUGH 80. AND I WENT THROUGH THE BAD ONE DONNA WAS A 4-5-4

  7. so I had no idea about Matt Gaetz betrayal—so I hate him now!! Let him stew in his
    own scandal—I really am shocked at what he voted against!! Do we have anyone in the House
    or Senate?? 2022 and 2024 is our only REVENGE against these commies If we lose we are
    doomed as a country!! We have to organize NOW!!

  8. MATT WHAT IS WITH YOU —THAT YOU THINK YOU KNOW BETTER THEN TRUMP ON HIS DECISIONS.. HE WORKED WITH ADVISERS LET ALONE HE IS OLDER AND WISER THEN YOU. YO JUMPED ON EVERYTHING THAT HE DID. AND NOW I’M QUESTION YOU ON YOUR WISDOM IN ALL THESE MATTERS. HE HAS BEEN AROUND THE BLOCK MUCH MORE THEN YOU HAVE BUSTER. YOU BETTER SIT BACK AND RECALL THAT EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE HAS WORKED FOR OUR BENEFIT. MATT IF YOU GOT A DAMN CHIP ON YOUR SHOULDER -THEMN DAMN WELL GET RID OF IT AND LEARN FROM A MAN WHO WAS IN BUSINESS AND HAS A SUCCESSFUL LIFE. AND IS STILL WORKING FOR US.!!!!! OR ARE YOU A DIM WIT LIKE BIDEN.?????????????

  9. TELL ME MATT—- WHY DID YOU QUESTION CUTTING REGULATIONS——- WHEN I COULD TELL YOU, WHY I KNOW WHY HE DID IT. WITH THE SHAPE WE WERE IN FROM OBAMA HE HAD TO TO GET THE BALL ROLLING AS USUAL THE DEMS LIKE PUTTING STRANGLE HOLD ON EVERYTHING AND NOTHING MOVES. -WE BECAME STAGNANT. REMEMBER HOW THE OBAMA RIGGED JOB FIGURES. . TRUMP KNEW WHAT OBAMA WAS DOING.!!!!

  10. WELL MATT LOOKS LIKE YOU NEED TO WAIT ON OPENING YOUR MOUTH AND LISTEN MORE. THAT IS WHY GOD GAVE YOU 2EARS AND 2EYES AND 1 MOUTH. YOU LEARN MORE THAT WAY RATHER THEN FLAPPING YOUR JAWS

  11. ON THIS ONE YOU WERE ONE STUPID PERSON — TRUMP HAD TO MOVE FAST TO GET EVERYTHING MOVING. ——- LEARN TO HOLD YOUR TONGUE AND LISTEN.

  12. HERE IS PLAIN AND SIMPLE ——– WITH OUT TRUMPS BUDGET– WE WOULD HAVE BEEN SETTING STILL. YOU HAVE ALOT TO LEARN STILL. NOTHING LIKE OPENING YOUR MOUTH AND INSERTING FOOT.

  13. WITH ALL YOUR TRYING TO STOP TRUMP TELL ME ARE YOU A REPUBLICAN OR A HIDDEN DEMOCRAT———— QUESTIONING TRUMP NOW MAKES ME THINK YOU DON’T BELONG IN THE PARTY AT ALL.

  14. Gotcha!
    All POLITICIANS! & of course, with “That 92 % Press” too…
    Today’s “Administration, “The USA” all of them. HAD ALL BEING MAD & GONE? CRIED “LUNACY!”
    Unfortunately, This Administration sounds too fragile, our “The USA” is by point of no return…
    even us Americans Gosh! “we could cut our losses” ‘such incompetence, distrust, VICIOUSNESS Power & Vested Interest So!.”What can we do? maybe..? let’s push WITH THAT DOOR COULD OPEN THIS LABYRINTH WITH THE REALK PATH..Ole Ole!
    See Ya ..Charlie G/Sr…………The USA!

  15. We need everyone we can get . . . . who stand politically right of center. We had 74 million vote for president Trump. We have to turn out 100 million, or more for the next election. This must happen “No matter who our conservative Republican candidate is.” I support Matt Gaetz.

  16. There are no “chickens roosting” here….I’m not ready to throw Gaetz under the bus…obviously if he’s a smear target….”they” must be concerned about him and want to shut him up….glad to see it’s not working….I like his energy and his fearless attitude….going to keep the faith….going to need more than just unsubstantiated slander….like maybe a tell all laptop….now that would be evidence….of course…unless you’re Hunter Biden.

  17. Let’s also get the other pedophiles connected to biden. (Clinton, Obama, pedophile supporters of Obama, ………)

  18. The Washington Post admitted that it was a false hit piece, the morning after Matt Gaetz appeared on Tucker. Funny how that works huh. I hope Matt Gaetz sues.

  19. After the Russian hoax media circus, it is hard to believe at first glance what comes out or is ignored by the media. The media pushes a lot of “news” that has no evidence and ignores other things that has substance. Just because it is a particular network doesn’t mean it is believeable or not believeable any more.

  20. Watch the video of Nancy Pelosi explaining the “wrap-up smear” – that’s what they’ve been doing to Trump for years now – and what they’re doing to Gaetz now. They only do it to the good guys. Some, they do the JFK thing to – they are ruthless. When they pull out the “wrap-up smear”, you KNOW there is MAJOR Luciferian opposition to that person because he or she works for the good of the people rather than “duh mob”.

    Matt was hired to represent his constituency, not to vote in synch with every proposal the President made. The current paradigm in politics is very much like a football game – choose a side and then chant: “My side is better than your side.”… blah blah blah.

  21. Sounds just like another Trump hateing rino.
    Trump needs true Americans to stand with him and the American people—not some fluffy haired rino. No vote for this guy after reading about how he betrayed our great President Trump.

  22. What is this site, some kind of lynch mob igniter? Gaetz has denied this and so far there is no evidence to the contrary. Why the rather exaggerated vitriol of Gaetz’ disagreements with Trump? Does this site know something no one else does?

  23. Is this becoming a “Never Trumper” manipulation page?? Trump voters are not going to throw Matt Gaetz under the bus feeding into some twisted Democrat scheme, like so many others before. Democrats have targeted Matt Gaetz because he’s EFFECTIVE & champions President Trump’s America First policy passionately. This is tied to the Robert Levinson investigation, which was legitimate for a Florida Congressman to scrutinize. Gaetz’s father took correct action to contact the Justice Department and cooperate with them.

  24. This is all a ploy to take down congressmen that support President Trump. Him, Green, Cruz and anybody else that supported our President. Don’t play into the hands of these DA crooked democRATS. They have you republicans scratching your heads and doing nothing to stand up for your party! Pull your heads out of your bung holes and support the man. If you don’t you are traitors to you party and fellow representatives! These DA democRATS have you republicans running around like CHICKENS with your heads cut off. MY GOSH, grow some damn backbones, will ya!!!!!!!

  25. How deep can you creep? Making the steadfast weep. Das teuffel sonnen a la derecha y a la isiquerda . No place to enjoy la plaeseur de la confidance. Le Vichy y das Bosch en union. Le directeur ist Karl Marx. Where is America? Steadfast America. Honest America? Like Charles Braun I “Weep for our generation”.

  26. You are dividing us. Gaetz is a great congressman and no one ever agrees totally with another. I actually don’t think Trump is always right though i am a big supporter. This author is more of a liberal than a true Patriot. And we need Patriots even if there are some disagreements with Trump. Disagreements are not betrayal and in the issues that count the most Gaetz supported Trump. I may unsubscribe from this email as some of the writers are really giving into liberals and these writers are the ones destroying us.

  27. American Action News is a brand of American Media Source. Headquartered in Alexandria, VA.

    AND YOU’RE WONDERING WHY THESE MARXIST SYMPATHIZERS ARE DOING A HIT PIECE ON HON. CONGRESSMAN MATT GAETZ?🇺🇸

    Respectfully,
    🔺️

  28. Not supporting Trump 100% of the time is not “betrayal.” Neither is voting against bills Trump eventually signed. Many times presidents sign bills that contain a lot of what they themselves oppose because it’s either that or shut down the government, or the overall good of the bill outweighs the bad. As for Trump not immediately jumping to Gaetz’s defense, that would be foolish. The story is still evolving. It may be true (I hope not), or it may be a smear, just like Cavanaugh’s rape club or Trump’s Russia collusion. Don’t forget the Prime Directive: ORANGE MAN BAD!! By extension, anyone who supported Trump in any way or who was not actively anti-Trump must be destroyed.

  29. While there is a lot of smoke, and I hope the latest, really sleazy one is not true, why not provide context to those votes. Some of those things that the President signed were as bad as they are because of dems holding the House and RINOs supporting them.

  30. Disgusted with this attempt to smear with innuendo and conjecture. Terrible. Makes me wonder what your agenda is. Unsubscribed!

  31. I don’t believe anything the media says – Matt Gaetz is not dirty – liberals only think that way

  32. I have followed Gaetz for a good while now. He really loves our country. I am going to wait till everything is investigated and proved before I vote to kick him out of office. He deserves to have a fair hearing like any other American citizen. In meantime, lets go after Cuomo and other Democrats who have cases coming up – I think the women who have come out saying Cuomo assaulted them is nine now. When are they going to get those cases settled. Maybe never???? Gaetz does a good job for this country so until he gets his fair investigation, I’m not going to attack the guy.

  33. Well this is how it all starts well I’m not falling into the left’s trap that’s all this Ge

    Gaetz now next it will be Jim Jord on stop and think 2022 election is coming and there trying to dirty the waters or should I say swamp the water

  34. Yeah–Matt is a question mark right now—could be a problem with him hanging around
    with Joel Greenberg who may or may not be accused of sex trafficking— not voting for
    these Trump signature accomplishments puts him at odds with conservatives I think
    let’s wait and see to hold judgment!

  35. Does anybody still trust the Federal Bureau of Idiots, to run a proper and clean investigation…this smells & 👀like a ‘Demon(c)rat&Deep-State’ set-up.

  36. Everyone needs to unite against the democrat dirt bags and the brain dead beast that leads them. As I write this the animals are looting in Minneapolis right now spurred on by their democrat commissars. There will be attempts to stage a communist revolution in several minority run cities this summer. Patriotic Americans should prepare and stock up on ammo.

  37. Some people have ran for office as Republican, because their district votes Republican. Not all are!

    REMOVE ALL COMMUNIST CONTROLLED DEMOCRATS FROM OFFICE! PERIOD.

  38. Isn’t agreeing to disagree the “Democratic Way” and isn’t “Cancel Culture” the way the Democrat Party uses when they want to Defame and Diffuse the Opposite Party’s Shining Stars?
    Distraction is the most Efficient manner the Democrats can use by employing the “Alphabet organizations” along with the Main Stream Media to discredit and destroy by Lying and Accusing
    We have seen these actions often enough to realize what power Lies have if they’re repeated often enough, like what the Donkey people ,led by Pretender Biden Lying about Georgia’s Voting Laws to prevent Fraud that they keep on Lying about regardless of the explanation that their “New Laws “actually Expand Voting privileges as opposed to restricting them! Lie,Repeat,Lie again,Repeat again, sooner or later someone hears the Lies often enough to believe them without knowing all there is to know !

  39. Rep. Matt Gaetz is hated by the Left and the Never Trumpers and they and their ilk will do whatever is necessary to bring him down. His frequent outspoken and bold support of President Trump made him the target of his political enemies. Those who despise Gaetz will use anything and everything necessary to bring him down especially in light of his alleged affinity relative to prostitutes and what they have to offer for a price and/or whatever. As far as the outcome of this ordeal goes only time will tell and subsequently unravel any laws that were broker. That being said anyone who holds that sex outside of marriage is unusual, well, there’s a bridge in Brooklyn a scammer will readily sell them.
